Maybe the most straightforward draft strategy to execute is POSB (power and stolen bases). This theory is built on drafting power and speed, with batting average being a secondary consideration. The goal is to dominate home runs and stolen bases, hopefully leading to high scores in runs and RBI.
Fading batting average
In most drafts, fantasy managers avoid players with batting average risk. As a result, low-average power hitters are littered through the player pool while not being targeted by many teams until the later rounds. With this draft style, it creates a gold mine.
By buying weaker pieces to the puzzle, a drafter can open up some early rounds to make sure they build their pitching staff base.
