Posted: Wed Feb 19, 2025 7:51 pm
As we dive deeper into the 2025 fantasy baseball season, the conversation around emerging prospects and potential breakout players is heating up. With the recent drafts and player evaluations, it's clear that some intriguing names are starting to surface.
Take Jose Ferrer, for instance. His late-season surge with a 1.42 ERA and 0.83 WHIP has many wondering if he could become a reliable closer. But can a pitcher with low strikeout numbers truly thrive in that role? What are your thoughts on Ferrer's potential? Is he a must-add in saves/holds leagues, or do you think his success is a flash in the pan?
Then there's Kris Bubic, who many are eyeing as a potential breakout starter after his time in the bullpen. With a solid changeup and a good team behind him, could he be the next big thing in fantasy? Or is he just another name in a long list of pitchers who failed to transition successfully from relief to starting?
And let's not forget about David Robertson. At 40 years old, he’s a wild card. Could he still be a valuable asset, or is he more likely to be a gamble that won't pay off? What teams do you think would be the best fit for him if he signs?
Lastly, with the draft season in full swing, how are you approaching your picks? Are you leaning towards established players, or are you taking risks on high-upside prospects? Share your bold predictions for the season and let’s discuss the strategies that could lead to a championship!
