Freddie Freeman is going to win MVP on a team that'll have 90+ losses.
I pegged Freeman for a breakout this year in the smaller ballpark. Turner field was a shit hole. He's been even better then I expected.
Other guys i pegged for big "breakouts":
Dj Lemahieu
Matt Carpenter
Christian Yellich
Bryce Harper (lol)
Kevin Pillar
Kevin Kiermaier
Haha I dunno man, it's not that easy to pick big-time breakouts from already established guys. I usually try to focus on that and then the big-time sleeper types. I didn't have time to get a read on the deeper sleepers this year honestly. Suarez, Story and Miller (brad) were all guys I had pegged last year. Alonso and Thames are completely random to me though, I'll be honest I never would have expected anything much from either. That being said Thames shouldn't really have been that surprising, he completely destroyed the Korean league.
Ya he's always been a skilled contact guy with a little pop. It'll be interesting to see how this all turns out for him. Definitely trust in Thames more then the Alonzo thing right now, probably cause I'm a bluejay homer and I used to call Eric Thames, EpicTaymez (like epic times with a borat accent)
I picked up both Yonder Alonso and Ryan Zimmerman in fantasy to start over Greg Bird at times but cut them pretty fast after finding zero info that supported they were going to be good.
It kinda sucks to have actually done the dope move and gave up on it. Twice. At my weakest position.
