Who are five sleeper hitters for fantasy baseball in 2019?
As of this posting, Bryce Harper and Manny Machado have yet to sign. That’s okay though. This post isn’t about them. It’s about the sleepers. Those late round breakout bats that help give your fantasy baseball team depth and help you win championships.
Earlier in this space, we looked at some pitchers who you can grab late to help your roster, but now, we are on to the hitters, those late round guys who can help you. Anyone can draft Macahdo, Harper and Paul Goldschmidt, but it’s adding guys late that help you win fantasy baseball championships.
Guys like Stephen Piscotty, David Peralta, Brandon Nimmo and Randal Grichuck may not have been drafted in your league, but I guarantee those guys were on teams that made playoffs or even made championships, especially if they replaced guys like Yoenis Cespedes and Odubel Herrera.
So who are five guys who can help you this year? Who are five guys you can find late or maybe even find as free agents right after the draft? Let’s take a look at five guys who could make an impact starting with a player who plays in the same city as Nimmo.
