Fantasy baseball season is in the air.
With the World Baseball Classic kicking off even more eyes are on the sport than usual this time of year. And if you’re getting ready to start your annual fantasy draft up soon, it can be tempting to reach for names that make you feel comfortable.
But beware! Not all players are worth that level of complacency, whether it’s an early round or late pick.
Let’s take a look at nine players you should absolutely avoid in your drafts this year with some insight from FanGraphs ZiPS projections — which uses growth and decline curves based on player type to establish trends. This isn’t to say these guys couldn’t be valuable adds down the road, but that’s what the waiver wires are for. Treat your draft with more caution.
