Chris Bassitt, 2021 Fantasy Sleeper

0 8
True story:  I looked at my fantasy baseball sleepers from last year and decided since I wrote a Ryan Yarbrough sleeper last year, I wouldn't write one this year, and instead focused on Chris Bassitt, who I wrote as a 'guy to target' but necessarily a full sleeper post. Coming off such a weird year, it's honestly difficult to have my opinions on starters change that dramatically. I'm trying not to cover ground I covered as recently as last year (which might explain my Nathan Eovaldi sleeper), because I was covering that ground as recently as last July/August. Ryan Yarbrough is still 100% a guy I like, and I have no idea why he's ranked so low in ADP. He doesn't have huge strikeouts, but he doesn't walk anyone, and is good for a mid-3 ERA, which is nothing to sneeze at unless you're allergic to quality starters. See that, I was able to give you a quick Ryan Yarbrough sleeper inside my Chris Bassitt sleeper. Also, one more thing that needs to mentioned prior to talking about Chris Bassitt and after this awkward intro to this sentence, I'm taking 20-30 innings off all my starter projections this year. I don't know how to handle guys only throwing 40-60 IP other than just dock them all. It's worth keeping that in mind when drafting starters this year, and looking at projections. It means there's gonna be a lot of sixth, seventh and maybe even eighth starters on teams getting upwards to 50 IP, because someone is going to need to replace the missing innings. Without reading anything about docking starters this year, it seems to me people are already doing this. Using Gerrit Cole as an example, he usually is projected for 220+ innings, and this year I see him being projected for ~200 IP. My guess is maybe one starter gets 200 IP this year. You're gonna read something similar from me in my starter rankings, so quickly forget what you just read so it seems new in a few weeks. By the way, my 2021 fantasy baseball rankings start on Monday. All of them are already available on our Patreon. So, what can we expect from Chris Bassitt and what makes him a sleeper?
