As we gear up for the 2025 Fantasy Baseball season, one of the most challenging categories to fill late in drafts is batting average. With so many elite hitters going early, it can feel like a gamble to find value in the later rounds. But fear not, there are some intriguing options that could provide a much-needed boost to your batting average without breaking the bank.
Take Luis Arraez, for example. With an ADP of 167, he’s a career .323 hitter and won the batting crown last season. However, his lack of power and speed raises questions. Is he worth the investment if you’re already loaded with sluggers? Or should you look for more balanced options?
Gabriel Moreno is another name to consider. After a slow start in 2024, he showed promise in the second half with a .325 average. Could he be the breakout catcher you need, or is he just a flash in the pan?
Then there’s Yandy Díaz, who had a solid batting average but struggled to replicate his power from the previous year. Is he a safe pick, or are we looking at a player whose best days are behind him?
And let’s not forget about Jung Hoo Lee, who has a stellar KBO track record but faced challenges in his first MLB season. With an ADP of 231, is he a hidden gem waiting to be discovered, or is he too risky to rely on?
Lastly, Jacob Wilson, with an ADP of 351, offers a high floor but limited upside. Is he a smart late-round pick for those looking to stabilize their batting average, or should we aim higher?
What are your thoughts on these players? Who do you think will outperform their ADP, and who should we avoid? Let’s dive into the discussion and share our insights on how to navigate the tricky waters of batting average in our drafts!
