BATTERS: 2017 LIMA targets
Feb 27 2017
The Low Investment Mound Aces (LIMA) Plan is a way for you to target consistent, affordable hitters who offer both solid plate discipline and some power/speed upside.
Our latest iteration of the LIMA model suggests that we should target hitters who are projected to meet some of the following thresholds:
- ct% + bb% of 90% or greater
- PX or Spd level of 100 or greater
- Regular playing time
- Projected R$ between $10 and $30
LIMA values can vary based on your league context. We encourage you to use our Custom Draft Guides to see customized LIMA values for your league.
Last year in this space, we identified guys like Rougned Odor (2B, TEX), Ian Kinsler (2B, DET), and Anthony Rendon (3B, WAS) as attractive LIMA targets.
Here are the top 2017...
