Fantasy Baseball Player Notes

2020 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Position

Team

Trevor Story Note
	7. Trevor Story SS It's safe to say that Story's 2017 season was just an outlier, and he's established a fairly reliable 35-homer, 20-plus steal baseline. Pay no attention to Story's dramatically lower xBA - Coors Field will always inflate batting average and should keep Story's mark with roughly a .280 floor at worst. Even at a deep shortstop position, he's a unique five-category player, and is an easy first-round selection. 11 weeks ago

Nolan Arenado Note
	10. Nolan Arenado 3B There's very little to say about Arenado at this point. He's batted between .287 and .315, hit between 37 and 42 home runs, and driven in between 97 and 116 runs in each of the last five years. Entering his age-29 season, there are simply no concerns about Arenado so long as he remains in Colorado all year, though that is admittedly a bit of a question mark at this point. But really, so long as you are comfortable that you won't get steals from your first-round pick, there's no reason to shy away from Arenado whatsoever. 11 weeks ago

Charlie Blackmon Note
	27. Charlie Blackmon RF Blackmon was one of the first players who was known to test positive for COVID-19. As of July 10, he still had not yet reported to Rockies camp. Given the lack of input into Blackmon's situation, it's certainly possible that he'll be healthy and ready to go by the time the season starts. But, for now, drop him at least a round or two in your rankings until you hear more. 4 weeks ago

David Dahl Note
	80. David Dahl CF,LF,RF

Ryan McMahon Note
	117. Ryan McMahon 2B,3B

Daniel Murphy Note
	131. Daniel Murphy 1B

Garrett Hampson Note
	143. Garrett Hampson 2B,CF

Sam Hilliard Note
	178. Sam Hilliard CF,LF With the addition of the designated hitter and with Ian Desmond opting out of playing in 2020, Hilliard should see everyday at-bats with the Rockies. In Triple-A last year, Hilliard hit 35 home runs and stole 22 bases in just 126 games, and he popped seven home runs in 27 MLB games. That's a player who you should have been grabbing at the end of every one of your drafts given his enormous upside, and should now be moving fast up your draft board. 6 weeks ago
