× By He was the #1 prospect not long ago, and the Mets want him to play every game, no days off. I don't know what traits others particularly look for in a lead-off hitter, and I'm not saying he can't develop into that skill-set, but ideally I want my lead-off hitters to be much more like Brandon Nimmo than Amed Rosario. Baseball-reference has him with negative WAR for the season. His walk rate is improving too. He may get a day off here and there, but I can't see him losing playing time simply due to the alleged depth of IFs. In 290 plate appearances at short-season Brooklyn last season, he slashed .289/.337/.380 with one home run and seven steals. Clear editor. padding:15px; Paste as plain text instead, × .promo_edge:after { But he is not a must hold at all. color:#fff !important; Keep an eye on where he hits in the lineup. Roster Resource as Nimmo/Lowrie at 1-2 with Rosario batting 7th. They were going Rosario/McNeil/Nimmo/Conforto down the stretch last year. Need to give him some time and opportunity, imo. The question is can he improve that awful SB and BB rate? Could be something to monitor. I see him as the leadoff hitter. He played all of last year at 22 years old, in New York, on a team that struggled. I could realistically see a 80 R/ 15 HR / 60 RBI/ 20 SB/ 280 AVG / 330 OBP effort from Rosario this year. I don't really see how he "excelled" there necessarily. Rosario played well over the weekend, going 4-for-8, but he continues to lose playing time to Gimenez. It compares his career trajectory to Altuve, which seems a little generous … KilloWertz, February 4, 2019 in Fantasy Baseball Talk. Hitting 2nd tonight with Nimmo bumped down to 8th. If he builds on what he had last year, maybe we hope for a .265/12hr/80run/60 rbi/30 sb year, which i'd be perfectly fine with at his current ADP of 273. opacity:.9; He had a .268/.301/.390 Slash Line with a 91 wRC+. I worry the same about McMahon/Hampson/Rodgers. There are a ton of guys his age at AA let alone AAA that have less pedigree. We'll see I guess though. Too bad Rosario can't play CF as well. .301 from the leadoff spot isn’t great. The plate discipline is actually getting better and he makes solid contact at breaking pitches. I doubt he’s someone people are itching to pick up.   Your previous content has been restored. A closer look at his K rate dropped from 28.8% in '17 to 20.1% in '18 and BB% increased from 1.8% to 4.9%; obviously none of the two rates are where we'd like to see for a player rely from on his speed than power. Look at the actual games, he is really hitting the ball harder and sometimes shows surprising, unexpected power. He cannot even hit tigers pitching smh.

Also dives into some of the Statcast numbers, which have looked favorable all season. border-radius:4px; He's playing everyday. The only person they have that can play SS is Lowrie and he’s currently their starting 3B. In a Dynasty League I'm in I thought about offering Rodgers for Amed, just because of the way Colorado poorly handles their prospects. I dropped a long time ago and regret nothing. Will be interesting to see where Mets bat him early on in Spring. DISCLAIMER: This site and the products offered are for entertainment purposes only, and there is no gambling offered on this site.

It's unlikely Rosario is going to lead off a whole lot in his Sophomore season especially when the walks disappeared at the big league level last year.
