Fantasy Focus: Outfielders

Here are the top 50 MLB OF's ranked by Steamer PROJECTED SLG% for 2015 with projected PA's. Remember, since 4 of the 5 standard fantasy offensive stats are counting stats, PA's are critical for valuation of a player.  If you roster a platoon player, you better handcuff his partner because those HR, RBI's, Runs and SB's do not accumulate from the bench.

1.  Giancarlo Stanton- .568, 634 PA.
2.  Mike Trout-           .538, 673 PA.
3.  Jose Bautista- .517, 654 PA.
4.  Carlos Gonzalez- .505, 533 PA.
5.  Andrew McCutchen- .504, 650 PA.
6.  Yasiel Puig- .495, 619 PA.
7.  Corey Dickerson- .493, 522 PA.
8.  Bryce Harper- .490, 616 PA.
9.  Brandon Moss- .485, 484 PA.
10.  Ryan Braun- .480, 610 PA.
11.  Oswaldo Arcia- .469, 538 PA.

24.  Jason Heyward- .446, 606 PA.
25.  Travis Snider- .442, 101 PA(Snider will almost certainly get far more PA's after trade to Orioles).
26.  Justin Upton- .442, 612 PA.
27.  Carlos Gomez- .441, 609 PA.
28.  Jay Bruce- .441, 527 PA.

36.  Alex Gordon- .432, 669 PA.
37.  Starling Marte- .430, 614 PA.
38.  Josh Reddick- .429, 512 PA.
39.  Cole Calhoun- .428, 603 PA.
40.  Michael Brantley- .427, 635 PA.
41.  Torii Hunter- .427, 620 PA.
42.  Josh Harrison- .421, 558 PA.
43.  Mookie Betts- .420, 418 PA.
44.  Michael Sanders- .420, 476 PA.
45.  Steven Souza- .419, 507 PA.
46.  Michael Cuddyer- .418, 591 PA.

49.  Shin-Soo Choo- .417, 634 PA.
50.  Josh Hamilton- .415, 566 PA.

Here are 6 more OF's projected to have more than 600 PA's:

Christian Yelich- .403, 660 PA.
Brett Gardner- .388, 655 PA.
Denard Span- .387, 635 PA.
Desmond Jennings- .377, 661 PA.
Austin Jackson- .371, 642 PA.
Ben Revere- .347, 614 PA.

Nick Markakis is also projected to have more than 600 PA's but I see no fantasy value in him except in the deepest of deep leagues.

Most Undervalued:  Oswaldo Arcia

Breakout Alert:  Jorge Soler

Sleeper Alert:  Steven Souza
