Is Corey Patterson going to be able to get over his injury from last year and continue to break out into a great fantasy player? and is he worth drafting, if so what rd?

Mid to late depending on what league

Look at his numbers until he got injured last year. He's very young so it's reasonable to say he could be even better. I would definetly think about him in the 9th rd or so.

Definitely worth a later round pick ;-D

I agree, he's worth a late round pick in my league right now. I think is getting overlooked in many leagues so far because 1) his injury last season and 2) he's getting lost in the shuffle in Chi-Town with all of their other pickups this off season.

He should bounce back fine, but his SB might be down just a bit if he is ginger about his leg injury. It shouldn't effect him at the plate though. But acording to reports in Cubs camp, he is running just fine, so I don't think He'll have a problem with it.

What Andy said, I think his SB will be cut back a bit early to see how the knee goes, but it might pick up a bit later in the year.

so...... would you consider patterson a sleeper?

by **Andy1234** » Sun Feb 29, 2004 11:50 am

Yeah I guess he would be considered a sleeper, but it really depends on your definition of sleeper.

If you're in a league with a bunch of idiots he can be a sleeper but if the other managers are generlly strong then everyone will know about him.
