Who is the player you expect to be this year's biggest fantasy sleeper and why?
Drew Smyly
In 2020, Smyly had the highest K/9 of any starter and ranked only behind Shane Bieber and Jacob deGrom in xFIP and supported it with a boost in velocity and spin rate. The biggest concern in 2021 about the southpaw is his innings limit. In five starts in 2020, he only accumulated 26 innings, but dealt with a finger injury that placed him on the IL and likely hindered his pitch count. Now on a year deal in Atlanta, the Braves still won’t use him like a workhorse, but we could see several efficient five-inning starts. At an ADP of SP78 and 254 overall, Smyly isn’t a top-200 player, but he’s certainly a no-brainer at his price.”
