INSIGHT

Woodruff May Start But Is Priced For Perfection

  • Brandon Woodruff likely will be ready for Opening Day but carries real season-long injury risk after shoulder surgery and a lat issue.
  • Chris Towers cautions his ADP (~122) is too high given his recent injury history and durability concerns.
ADVICE

  • Avoid drafting Griffin Jax too early despite Edwin Uceta's shoulder news; Tampa's closer role looks messy.
  • Chris Towers recommends targeting Jax around pick ~200 for stable ratios and ~20 saves, not top-150.
