I’ve mentioned this about sixteen dozen times previously, but here goes sixteen-dozen and one times. There’s sleepers ever year who fall into this category: These guys have already broken out, why don’t you believe them? Then I have to go about proving what they’ve already done was solid, and they can do it again. This is James Outman. He already had a great year. Maybe there’s just too many outfielders to draft, but I see him being drafted after 180 overall, and I think to myself, “Self, what’s going on here?” Besides there just being too many outfielders, the only other reason I can think is people don’t trust James Outman. Too easy to get Outman is what you say, incorrectly, and I say, correctly, about his draft price. See what I did there? I’m not sure myself so don’t ask me to repeat it. It’s gone forever now! Last year, James Outman put up the line of 86/23/70/.248/16 in 483 ABs. Geez, his line already looks like what I’m praying/hoping/please daddy’ing from number two outfielder, forget about where he’s going around 3rd to 4th outfielders. Is 86/23/70/.248/16 in 483 ABs really only, roughly, the 45th best outfielder off the board as I’ve seen? It’s a glorious time, but is it that glorious, Gloria, G-L-O-R-I-A? Maybe it is. That’s the only excuse for him falling in drafts. I will hear no other! So, what can we expect from James Outman for 2024 fantasy baseball and what makes him a sleeper?
Please, blog, may I have some more?
