Fantasy Impact
Wieters hit .246 last season with 17 home runs, 66 RBI, and a .302 OBP in 423 at-bats. Washington has a great lineup and Wieters will thrive with the players around him. The question becomes, what will the time-share be between former all-star Derek Norris and incumbent signee Matt Wieters. Defintily a position battle to follow during spring-training.
