Don’t forget Choo on fantasy draft day

by Jonas Fortune on January 21, 2009

The baseball blog, Fangraphs, recently reminded us that Shin-Soo Choo may be a valuable fantasy league pickup this season.

Fangraphs points out that the left-handed hitting Choo did have some success against lefties last year, albeit in 84 at bats.

According to its projections, Choo is in line for a .290 average with 15-20 home runs if he is able to hold down a full-time position. If he were a first baseman he would be comparable, fantasy-wise, to Chicaco Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee, Fangraphs wrote.
