BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 450
CURRENT ADP: ~533 overall
ANALYSIS: Chavis was traded to the Pirates last year, and the change of scenery may have done some good for Chavis. Over 42 plate appearances with the Pirates, he hit .357 with four extra-base hits, including a home run. The .452 BABIP is not sustainable, but the massive improvements from his time in Boston are welcome. Chavis also had a 9% barrel rate with a 50% hard-hit rate, and hard-hit skills have never been a question about Chavis.
He heads into the 2022 season with a chance to see somewhat regular at-bats between second base, first base, and the DH. The ATC projections have Chavis playing in 111 games with 404 plate appearances, a .241 average with 15 home runs. That is outstanding after pick 500. If he somehow locks in an everyday role, we are talking a 20+ home runs this late in the draft. There is a tremendous amount of upside with taking a chance on Chavis.
