BALLER MOVE: Target ~260
CURRENT ADP: 276
ANALYSIS: Brent Honeywell took the minor leagues by storm in 2015 by posting a 3.18 ERA, 1.051 WHIP, 8.9 K/9, and 4.78 K/BB between Low-A and High-A. He entered the MLB Pipeline Top 100 (checking in at #43) prior to the 2016 season and hasn't stopped producing since. Many expected Honeywell to get the call at some point last season, but he never made it to the majors.
It wasn't for lack of trying, though, as his numbers definitely warranted it. Honeywell pitched to a 3.49 ERA and a 1.237 WHIP with a 11.3 K/9 between Double-A and Triple-A in 2017, and he should continue getting great results at the MLB level in 2018. He likely won't begin the year in the rotation, but his talent will force the organization to feature him in the big leagues soon after the start of the season. Plus, he's got a pretty nasty screwball.
