Miguel Andujar (OF/3B, NYY) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper

fantasy baseball rankings draft sleepers MLB injury news

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~250

CURRENT ADP: ~270 overall

ANALYSIS: Andujar was a non-factor for the Yankees in 2019 as he only played in 12 games due to a shoulder injury. However, in 2018, Andujar slashed .297/.328/.527 with 27 HR and 92 RBI. It was a tremendous season from the rookie and placed him second in voting for AL Rookie-of-the-Year.

The 27 home runs were a bit surprising for Andujar as he had never hit more than 16 in any one season in the minor leagues, but his power metrics were above league average in exit velocity, xSLG, and hard-hit rate. Given this information, the young talent may just be starting to tap into his power at the young age of 25. Also, keep in mind he was 23 years of age in 2018 when he put up the 27 bombs. While most of his power was a result of pulling the ball to left field, he did show some power to straight away centerfield and to right field as well.

Andujar also showed a strong ability to make contact with pitches in the strike zone, as noted by his 88.9% zone contact rate, which was six percent above league average. Being able to do this consistently is going to drive up his RBI totals. He is also projected to bat between sixth and seventh (depending on the handedness of pitcher) in a lineup that scored 943 runs and led all of baseball in 2019. With the recent injuries to the Yankee lineup, it would not be surprising to see Andujar get at-bats in the outfield, where he's played most of the spring, or back in the infield if someone like Luke Voit, Gio Urshela or Mike Ford struggles to begin the season.

As of this writing, Andujar currently has an ADP of 270, which makes him a mid 22nd round pick in most 12-team mixed leagues. This should be an absolute steal given the amount of playing time he could see and his place in the Yankee lineup.
