Some big names are coming back from injury-plagued 2022 seasons and could dramatically alter the fantasy landscape this year.
Each man detailed below still has a premium skill set but is going to cause managers some sleepless nights until we see him on the field for an extended period of time. Let’s take a look:Tatis missed all of 2022 due to a combination of injuries and suspension, and he will open this season in the same fashion. But when his suspension concludes in late April, the 24-year-old could immediately return to being a top-five overall fantasy asset.
Additionally, Albies' role is a source of concern. The 26-year-old has spent most of his career hitting out of a premium lineup spot but the Braves have other good candidates to fill those roles this season. Overall, there are too many risk factors for me to draft Albies at his current Yahoo ADP .A top-50 pick in recent years, Anderson has dipped to a current Yahoo ADP of 73.
Overall, I feel that O’Neill offers fair value at his current Yahoo ADP , and I hope to have him on some of my 2023 rosters.Although a triceps contusion caused Lowe to miss a few 2022 games, it was his lower back that was the major reason he participated in just 65 contests. The 28-year-old finished the season with a .691 OPS, which was the first time that his final mark was below .850 since his rookie year in 2018, and he is now being plucked in Yahoo drafts at pick 153.5, on average.
With less than 50 innings to his credit across the past three years, Sale has given managers plenty of reason to worry that he may not be the ace that he once was. I’ll pass on drafting the 34-year-old at his current Yahoo ADP of pick 161.1.The ultimate boom-or-bust player, Mondesi appeared in just 15 games last season before suffering a torn ACL that required season-ending surgery.

Fantasy Baseball 2023: Spencer Strider among most polarizing early-round pitchersIt's pure chaos atop the pitching ranks in 2023, with no agreed-upon consensus No. 1 fantasy ace and a growing cult of drafters who prioritize 70-inning relievers over 190-inning starters. In a year without a vintage Pedro or Kershaw to provide clarity and order, things quickly descend into tribalism. Some of us have simply renounced all early-round pitchers, preferring to build rotations from late-game fliers and prospects, enhanced later by aggressive waiver adds. To each their own.
