Ezequiel Tovar 2024 Fantasy Baseball Outlook: A Little Bit Of Everything At The End Of Your Draft
10 months agoOn the surface, Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar's 2023 season was lackluster, with a .253-15-73-79-11 line with a .298 WOBA and 70 wRC+. However, when you view it as compared with other shortstops, he totaled the second-most doubles and was Top-10 in hits, runs, and RBI. If it weren't for his poor April and July, he would have had a much more respectable .270 BA, and the righty even had a 15-game hit streak in the middle of the season. This was despite his 31.3% Whiff% and 2nd percentile Chase% of 42.0%. ATC projections foresee a .263-16-71-79-13 season with a .311 WOBA and 79 wRC+. Going at the end of drafts with an NFBC ADP of 195, he won't cost you much, and RotoBaller ranks him a bit higher at 176, so there could be some value there. If you're looking for additional reasons to buy, he's still 22 years old and plays his home games in the thin air of Coors Field, so there's room for his numbers to grow.
