Adam Eaton’s 2015 was an unmitigated disaster in April, as he hit .192 with zero RBIs and one stolen base to open the season. He then had a good rest of the season, ending the year with 98 runs scored, 14 home runs, 56 RBIs, 18 steals, and a .287 average. Hello five category production, that power was unexpected, please won’t you join me on my team?
Mind you, those numbers are with an atrocious April and a White Sox offense that underperformed. If the team can take a step forward in 2016 (as simple regression should have it), every one of their players stands to gain. Eaton, being the leadoff hitter, should be one of the biggest beneficiaries.
He now heads into his age-27 season, also known as primetime, and with Frazier joining Abreu as a power bat to knock Eaton in, a big year could be coming for Adam. Currently the 30th outfielder off of the board according to NFBC ADP data, the price is right and he could end up being a top 25 guy.
