Fantasy Baseball Draft Picks Experts Love

Let’s dive into a few of my favorite picks from a recent fantasy baseball mock draft. And you can also check out the full fantasy baseball mock draft.

Cole Ragans (SP – KC)

Despite drawing trade interest this offseason, Cole Ragans remains with the Royals for now. He missed three months with a rotator cuff strain last year before returning to make three more starts to close the season. He remains a high-upside starting pitcher.

Corey Seager (SS – TEX)

It was a down season for Corey Seager compared to his standards last year, as he was limited to 102 games due to injuries. That has been an issue the last few seasons for him, which is baked into where he is going in drafts, as he hasn’t played more than 123 games the past three years. He had three years of hitting at least 30 home runs that ended last season.

Spencer Schwellenbach (SP – ATL)

Spencer Schwellenbach had his season end early last year with a fractured right elbow. He was reported to be pain-free to begin the offseason. Schwellenbach holds a steady 3.23 ERA across 234.1 innings (38 starts) over the past two seasons.

Oneil Cruz (OF – PIT)

Oneil Cruz is coming off a disappointing season where he slashed just .200/.298/.378 at the plate. He’ll be looking to bounce back as he likely remains in center field for the Pirates.

Tyler Glasnow (SP – LAD)

Despite some early trade rumors, Tyler Glasnow remains with the Dodgers. The biggest knock on him remains his durability. He remains one of the top starters in baseball when he’s healthy.
