MLB first baseman Jesus Aguilar is a potential 2022 fantasy baseball sleeper and ADP draft value. Target him as an undervalued 1B and late-round sleeper.
BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 260
CURRENT ADP: ~285 overall
ANALYSIS: Aguilar built off his success in the shortened season and enjoyed another strong campaign in his first full year with the Marlins. The slugger hit 23 doubles and 22 homers while posting a .788 OPS. He also recorded a .329 OBP and struck out just 93 times over 131 games. While Aguilar saw his walk rate drop, his strikeout rate stayed around his career average with a mark of 18.2%.
Aguilar is looking more like the power bat and run producer he was back in 2018. This season he saw his launch angle, exit velocity, barrel percentage, and hard-hit percentage increase. He also drove in 93 runs in a weak Marlins lineup. Miami went out and added some help this offseason, and there could be more on the way. One would figure Aguilar could see an uptick in the RBI department. With his production and this Marlins lineup on the rise, Aguilar could be looking at a monster season.
