Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

Jackson Holliday (2B – BAL)

“Second base is light this year, and this time last season, people couldn’t wait to overpay for Jackson Holliday. Now, he’s being drafted at pick No. 199, which is an equally ridiculous overreaction. He’s made off-season adjustments, ditching the big leg kick, and Holliday is still very much the guy who slashed .304/.443/.486 over 218 minor-league games. We expected too much from the 20-year-old last season, and we’re not expecting enough this season. He could end up being a 20/20 player in 2025 with a decent BA and counting stats, depending on his lineup spot.”

Heliot Ramos (OF – SF)

“Gobble up hefty portions of Heliot Ramos this draft season. The Giants left fielder finds the barrel 14.5% of the time and has an average exit velo of 91.5mph. He uses the whole field and has a hard hit rate of 47.5%. Pass on someone like Riley Greene and snag Ramos five rounds later.”
– Todd D Clark (The Fantasy Fix)

Victor Robles (OF – SEA)

“Are we totally sure Victor Robles’ numbers in Seattle to end 2024 were complete fool’s gold? He looked like a completely different player compared to his tenure in Washington. Robles had 3.1 WAR, batted .328, and stole 30 bases…in just 77 games! His xBA was much lower at .257, so of course, some regression is coming from that .388 BABIP. But he was on pace for over 60 stolen bases in a full season, and even in an environment where steals are up across the board, that’s still a needle mover. He’s also, somehow, only 27 years old still, and it wouldn’t be entirely unheard of for a 27-year-old former elite prospect to finally put it all together at the plate. I’m not saying Robles is a league winner, but as a guy being drafted outside the top 225 picks, I think he’s a great bet to return lots of value in certain formats.”
– Ryan Wormeli (FantasyPros)

“Victor Robles after 200 is a steal this year. After being traded to Seattle, in 77 games, Robles hit .328/.393/.467 with 4 HRs and 30 SBs. Yes, double those numbers, and the full-year pace was 8/60. I don’t expect 60 SBs, but 7/40 with a .300 average looks nice, especially when guys like Brice Turang, Andres Gimenez, Xavier Edwards, and Masyn Winn are going multiple rounds earlier.”
