Yesterday, I wrote about catchers and a bit about the new BORAS model system this year. Today, we move on to first basemen. While catchers had a potentially big name in Yasmani Grandal, the big name here (Justin Smoak) has a club option for eight million, which seems like an easy decision for the Blue Jays to pick up as Smoak has accounted for quite a bit of offense these past few years in Toronto.
Here is the BORAS projection for first base.
