As we gear up for the 2025 Fantasy Baseball season, it's time to dive into the potential pitfalls that could derail our first-round picks. With stars like Shohei Ohtani, Bobby Witt Jr., and Aaron Judge at the forefront, the excitement is palpable, but so is the risk.
Let's talk about the elephant in the room: injuries. Ohtani's dual-threat capability is a marvel, but can we really trust his health after multiple surgeries? What if he can't replicate his historic performance? And what about Bobby Witt Jr.? His impressive rise has been overshadowed by a concerning drop in stolen bases. Is he still a top-tier pick, or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment?
Then there's Aaron Judge, whose power numbers are jaw-dropping, but can he stay on the field long enough to make an impact? With his injury history, is he worth the risk at such a high draft position?
And what about the emerging talents like Elly De La Cruz? His speed is enticing, but can we overlook his batting average and RBI potential? Is it wise to invest a first-round pick in a player who might not contribute across the board?
I want to hear your thoughts! What are your bold predictions for these first-rounders? Are there any players you think could surprise us in a negative way? How do you approach drafting when the stakes are this high? Let's get the conversation rolling!
