Randal Grichuk (OF, TOR) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~240

CURRENT ADP: ~268 overall (From March 1st to present)

ANALYSIS: Randal Grichuk slashed .232/.280/.457 with 31 HR and 80 RBI in 2019. While the .232 average is not ideal, the home run and RBI production he provided for the Blue Jays cannot be understated. The RBI production came in large part because of the home run total, which was a direct result of his power. While Grichuk found himself below his career average in a number of metrics, he was still above league average in barrel rate (8.5%), exit velocity (89.3 mph), xSLG (.427), and hard-hit rate (.378). If he is able to return to a level near his career averages in 2020, we could see a spike in home runs and RBIs.

Grichuk finds himself in an ideal situation for RBI production in the Blue Jay lineup. He is projected to bat fifth or sixth depending on pitcher handedness in a lineup that should certainly outperform its run total of 729 from 2019. He will have the likes of Bo BichetteCavan Biggio, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hitting in from of him, who put up on-base percentages of .358, 364, and .339, respectively. He also calls the Rogers Centre home, which ranked 12th in terms of runs scored and first in terms of home runs in 2019.

He currently has an ADP of 268, which makes him a 22nd round pick in 12-team mixed leagues. Depending on your league's bench size, this could mean Grichuk is going undrafted in certain leagues. If you find yourself looking for RBI production with one of your last picks, Grichuk should be your guy.
