Logan O'Hoppe is a 2023 fantasy baseball draft sleeper at C and an ADP draft value. Target O'Hoppe as an undervalued C in fantasy baseball drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 215
CURRENT ADP: ~235 overall
ANALYSIS: Valuing Logan O'Hoppe and determining if you want to target him in drafts comes down to your general strategy with catchers and if you play in one or two-catcher formats. But regardless, I'm expecting O'Hoppe to hop into fantasy managers' hearts in every format this season.
Over the last two seasons, 2022 especially, O'Hoppe has blossomed into one of the best catching prospects in baseball. O'Hoppe spent the entire season in Double-A between the Philadelphia Phillies and Los Angeles Angels organizations, and even received a cup of coffee down the stretch for the Halos, skipping the Triple-A level entirely.
In his 447 plate appearances before being called to the Major Leagues, O'Hoppe slashed a robust .283/.416/.544 with 26 home runs. He was one of only 13 prospects to hit above .280 with more than 25 home runs last season, and one of only four catchers to do it.
The blend of contact, power, approach, and opportunity makes O'Hoppe a highly intriguing backstop target. Not only did he post a .544 SLG and .261 ISO last season, but he also walked nearly as much as he struck out, finishing with a 15.7% walk rate and 16.6% strikeout rate. With him projected to be the starting catcher for the Angels this season, I'm all over this ADP in two-catcher formats, or if I want to wait on this position in single-catcher formats
