Trevor Story is a SS fantasy baseball draft sleeper, and an ADP draft value for 2024. Target Story as an undervalued SS in fantasy baseball drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 165
CURRENT ADP: ~226
ANALYSIS: There are a couple of Boston Red Sox players that we can get at a nice price in drafts and Trevor Story is another one. With what looks to be a solid (and full) season for Trevor Story, Boston has him set to hit cleanup which should be a big boon to his RBI total.
A UCL injury prevented him from debuting until August, and he struggled with his timing upon returning to the tune of a .203/.250/.316 line with three homers and 10 SB in 168 PAs. It would be easy to count the 31-year-old out, but remember that Story slashed .238/.303/.434 with 16 HR and 13 SB in 396 PAs as recently as 2022.
Story can swipe bases, too. Per Rick Lucks, Trevor Story posted a 28.8 ft./sec Statcast Sprint speed and eight Outs Above Average last season even after struggling early on. He has the athleticism and power to put together some well-balanced production if he can stay healthy.
ATC projects Story for 83 runs, 83 RBI, 25 home runs, and 20 steals. He's going far too late in drafts for a player with his tools and upside. This Boston offense should be improved around him, too.

Chandler Simpson - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: Unlike many players currently in the minor leagues, Chandler Simpson has proven he can be a valuable fantasy player at the MLB level. In his time in the majors, he hit .285 with 19 stolen bases in 35 games. Unfortunately, being a valuable fantasy player […]
Brady House - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: The Nationals went viral on social media this week for making a fun call-up. They called up their bat dog from Triple-A. While this was very cute and should improve the vibes a little bit in Washington, I don't think Bruce the Bat Dog will help […]
Samuel Basallo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Samuel Basallo might be the best hitter in the minors right now, and he has catcher eligibility. What more do you need to know (I know catcher is super deep this year, but still)? Basallo has been an age-to-level monster for the majority of his pro […]
Andrew Painter - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Painter's last two starts don't give a ton of confidence that he is ready to be in the majors. It may not even be before the All-Star break before we see him, but that does not mean we are in stash territory. The good news is, […]
Colby Thomas - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: The A's continue to lose, and Colby Thomas continues to hit homers in Triple-A. The A's just got swept by the Angels, bringing their record to 26-44. While plays like Denzel Clarke's HR robbery can generate a spark for a team, the A's might need […]
