Fantasy Impact:
This is a long awaited call for Orf. The 28-year-old has been in the Brewers' minor league system since 2013. Orf has displayed tremendous plate discipline and contact skills throughout his minor league career. At Triple-A he had a 15.3% strikeout rate and 11% walk rate. He was slashing an impressive .307/.412/.463 with six home runs and 20 steals. Though he probably won't be a starter right away Orf is a sneaky deep league player to add.
