Draft Advice: Tips on player picks and team-building.
#1436
Deyvison De Los Santos has been making waves in the minor leagues, and with his recent trade to the Marlins, the conversation around his potential is heating up. Some analysts are throwing around bold predictions, suggesting he could be a 40-homer guy, while others are more cautious, pointing to his high strikeout rate and lack of walks.

This brings up an interesting debate: how do we evaluate prospects who have immense power but also significant flaws? Is it worth taking a chance on a player like De Los Santos, who might hit .220 but could also provide massive home run totals?

For those of you who have followed his journey, what are your thoughts? Do you believe he can translate his minor league success into the majors, or do you think his strikeout issues will hold him back?

Additionally, with the Marlins potentially giving him ample playing time, could he be a sleeper pick for 2025 fantasy leagues? How do you weigh the risk versus reward when it comes to drafting high-risk, high-reward players?

Let’s hear your takes! What are your predictions for De Los Santos, and how do you approach similar prospects in your fantasy drafts?
