BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 425
CURRENT ADP: ~518 overall
ANALYSIS: The universal DH will likely give Beer a route to regular playing time and he's certainly making a case for himself in Spring. Through 11 games, Beer has a .474/.565/.842 line with one homer and four doubles.
In his first year as a pro, Beer hit 12 homers in 67 games and followed that up in 2019 by hitting 26 homers (123 games) across two levels. Last year, Beer played 100 games in Triple-A, hitting 16 homers and managed to hit his first Major League homer in his first at-bat for the Diamondbacks.
Beer has an ADP of ~606 and is undrafted in most formats while Cruz's ADP is ~175. There's a very real chance that 2022 is finally the year that age catches up with Cruz and Beer reminds everyone why the Astros drafted him in the first round just four years ago. I highly doubt the finish 400+ places apart at the end of the season.
