ADP and SB Leaders

Do not squander draft picks on guys who only steal bases. This is a very hard category to steer your way through all season. The reason is many high steal guys just don’t produce in other categories on a consistent basis. Our list below shows that eight of the top SB leaders have not been listed in any of our other counting categories. (Translation…they are a wasted roster spot) The bold names listed are our newbies again. Of the eight not listed previously, only 1 is being drafted before the 12th round and 3 on our list have not been drafted at all in mock drafts. I personally look for my 5th outfielder or my MI for steals late in the draft and then fill my bench with some multi-position speed guys. The advice here is to not get completely buried in this category early in the year. Stay competitive early, then if need be trade for speed with someone whose team in floundering or scour the waiver wire for an injury whose back-up has speed. Our list includes everyone that was able to produce 2.5 steals a month last year.
