BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 23% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Henry Davis struggled during his first stint in the majors last season, generating a .653 OPS with seven home runs across 62 games played. Now, with some big league exposure under his belt, the 24-year-old is in a prime position to break out in 2024. Davis is hardly the first rookie to struggle, and he certainly has the peripherals of a worthwhile fantasy producer.
As a refresher, Davis was the first-overall pick in the 2021 draft. He was the third-ranked prospect in the Pittsburgh Pirates farm system heading into 2023 and the 57th prospect in all of baseball. Davis posted a 1.015 OPS across 55 games between Double-A and Triple-A in 2023 before eventually getting called up. He's excelled at every level of the minor leagues, and it seems like it will only be a matter of time before Davis figures out major league pitching.
