Completely agree with Baseball Hot Corner that JBJ is a fantasy sleeper this season. He pretty quietly put up over an .800 OPS last year while showing big time pop. Wouldn’t be shocked to see him close in on a .900 OPS this season as his bat continues to progress. He’s a no brainier in any league that has defensive stats, he’s probably the best defensive CF in the game today. He’s a guy who ‘experts’ gave up on way too soon, I wouldn’t be surprised one bit to see him be the reserve CF on the AL All Star team his season (Trout is just too good.)

Best defensive CF? Kiermaier, Cain and Pillar are all better than JBJ defensively

JBJ isn’t even the best CF in his own division let alone the whole MLB.

christian18cutshaw
Kevin Kiermaier is better
