Grey Albright's 2023 Player Summary
This is a new tier, and the final tier. I call this tier, 'Your butt fell asleep.' Whispering to not jolt your buttocks, 'Butt, hey, why don’t we put you in bed?' You nudge your butt, but it’s not waking, so you carefully carry it into bed and lay it... (click to read the rest)

Josh Donaldson Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)

Josh Donaldson projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections by Steamer are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.

Josh Donaldson Fantasy Outlook For 2023

Grey Albright Player Summary
This is a new tier, and the final tier. I call this tier, 'Your butt fell asleep.' Whispering to not jolt your buttocks, 'Butt, hey, why don’t we put you in bed?' You nudge your butt, but it’s not waking, so you carefully carry it into bed and lay it down, and tuck it in. That’s this tier. You’ve been sitting so long into a draft that you’ve reached this tier and your butt fell asleep. As for Donaldson, he’s the best example of everything wrong with the present-day Yankees. Donaldson should be retired, and the Yankees are carting him around with Aaron Hicks as their lineup card is this month’s cover of AARP. As a one-time Yankees fan, it’s hard to watch what they’ve become. A Yankees team with some balls would cut Donaldson or put him on the bench as a utility guy for Peraza or Cabrera to play, but instead Donaldson will be protecting Aaron Hicks and DJ LeMahieu in the lineup.
