BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 224
CURRENT ADP: ~246
ANALYSIS: Seattle Mariners second baseman Jorge Polanco is showing his new team what he can do at the plate this spring. Through his first eight Cactus League games, Polanco had reached base at least once via hit or walk in each game. The veteran is 7-for-17 (.412) with a double, two home runs, four runs, and eight RBI. He's collected four walks and has also been plunked once, with his OBP standing at .545 after 22 plate appearances.
The 2019 All-Star has missed portions of the last two seasons due to injury so it's a welcome sight to see him healthy. He's currently projected to hit third in the Mariners' order and is being drafted around pick 257 per his NFBC ADP, well behind his RotoBaller rank of 224.
Jorge Polanco is batting .500 (7x14) with 2 home runs, 8 RBI and a 1.632 OPS this spring.

ATC projections believe in a bounceback for Polanco with 21 HR, 65 R, 68 RBI, and 6 SB. He's a valuable veteran switch-hitter both in real life and for fantasy teams that you can snag at a cheap cost near the end of your drafts.
