3 years agoBarring an unforeseen development, Los Angeles Angels infielder David Fletcher, who has been the team's long-time second baseman, will make the transition to become the team's starting shortstop. Fletcher played 20 games at the 6 last year, so he probably already has shortstop eligibility in most fantasy formats. The 27-year-old's fantasy value in deeper mixed and AL-only leagues improves a bit, but Fletcher will also lose some appeal with Shohei Ohtani serving as the Angels regular leadoff hitter in 2021, which will push Fletcher down in the batting order. He makes consistent contact at the plate, but he doesn't offer much in terms of power -- just 12 career homers in four big-league seasons -- and he's unlikely to produce a ton of counting stats while hitting eighth or ninth.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
