In Oakland, he figures to serve as the primary second baseman, but could also get occasional starts at shortstop and third base. Widely regarded as the game's No. The year-old has career major-league rates of 9.
Profar doesn't have a daily lineup spot to start the season, which has been an evergreen statement. He likely will have to get by in , at least initially, by piecing together work at numerous positions. Whether he does this for a so-far patient Rangers team or another squad remains to be seen. Repeating the final point from his outlook: "He's still an interesting lottery ticket.
Profar serves as a prime example of the disastrous effects shoulder injuries can have on hitters, most of the time severely sapping power. After missing nearly two years due to ongoing shoulder issues, he's still trying to rediscover the stroke that made him the top prospect in every publication across the land just four years ago.
He teased that potential by starting with a. He hit decently for a year-old at Triple-A, but considering the offense-heavy context of the Pacific Coast League, his Round Rock performance was still disappointing for a player of Profar's pedigree, experience and theoretical upside. His greatest fantasy asset in might be his positional flexibility, depending on your league's qualification parameters, as last season Profar played 11 or more games at every spot on the infield other than catcher in addition to left field.

Profar missed all of with shoulder troubles. He first tore a muscle in his right shoulder during spring training, and then had multiple setbacks throughout the season. He had platelet-rich plasma injections to the joint in late September and a late October MRI said the shoulder was 95 percent clean. However, it was not clean enough for him to play in the Arizona Fall League as originally hoped. He seemed to be making steady progress throughout the winter, but a follow-up MRI showed increase strain in the subscapularis muscle in his shoulder, and the decision was made to schedule surgery.
Profar is expected to miss the entire season as a result, but he's still just 22 years old and those in keeper and dynasty leagues who are willing to ride out the storm could use this to get the talented infielder at a discount.
