Luis Campusano is a catcher fantasy baseball draft sleeper, and an ADP draft value for 2024. Target Campusano as an undervalued catcher in fantasy baseball drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 244
CURRENT ADP: ~268
ANALYSIS: After missing almost the entire first half of the 2023 season, Luis Campusano announced himself as a fantasy viable catcher in the second half. In 49 games across the season, he hit .319/.356/.491 with seven homers, 30 RBI, 27 runs and no stolen bases. While his batting average doesn't appear to be sustainable over an entire season, it is worth noting Campusano had a .305 xBA (expected batting average).
That was also his main attribute in the Minor Leagues. In 167 Triple-A games, Campusano had a .297/.366/.513 slash line with 30 homers. Across all Minor League levels, Campusano hit .300/.369/.473 (387 games).
Thinking he can put up a ~.280 batting average in a Major League season is hardly a stretch. That is not something you will get from the position outside the top-tier catchers. Only three catchers with at least 350 plate appearances last year had a batting average better than .280.
His Minor League numbers and seven HRs in 49 MLB games suggest Campusano can hit 20 homers in a full season too. Campusano is generally undrafted in one-catcher leagues but makes an ideal late-round option. He's a lock in two-catcher leagues and can become a top-10 catcher in 2024.
