While it's smart to start with draft picks high in the rank

While it's smart to start withdraft picks high in the rankings when a sembling a fantasy baseball roster, it's also important to take on some risk in order to elevate your team's ceiling, at least in the middle and late rounds. Over the past couple of Darius Leonard T Shirts seasons, sleepers such as Aaron Judge and Mike Clevinger have been selected in the late rounds before emerging as top-tier producers, showing the importance of projecting more than a few breakouts on your cheat sheet.So, if you're hoping to pinpoint the next batch of fantasy baseball steals, this lineup made up entirely of sleepers is a good place to start. Each carries risk of not panning out, but at least a couple should enjoy breakout campaigns that change the landscape of your fantasy league.MORE FANTASY BASEBALL: | 2019 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: All-Breakout TeamEligibility based on Yahoo's default settingsCatcher: Tyler Flowers, Braves. Flowers has been a sneaky-good platoon bat since arriving in Atlanta in 2016, and his renowned pitch-framing skills combined with the departure of Kurt Suzuki could lead to an uptick in playing time for the veteran catcher. He'll now be spelled by Brian McCann, an injury-prone backstop who managed to play just 63 games last season. Flowers hit .270 in '16 and .281 in'17; a BABIP well below his career norm last season should bounce back in '19 and lead to another solid batting average, particularly against lefthanded pitchers. He should also be bankable for double-digit home runs, something he's done in three of the past six seasons despite playing a part-time role. Oh, Matt Ryan T Shirts and there's this: Flowers has maintained a significantly higher average exit velocity and launch angle than league average for four straight seasons. He's not flashy, but if used properly, there might not be a better late-round option at catcher.First base: Tyler White, Astros. There are several sleeper contenders at this position, including Josh Bell and Jake Bauers. But perhaps no one has the upside of White, whose potential limitation may simply be playing time. Evan Gattis, Houston's primary designated hitter in 2018, is no longer under contract, while first baseman Yuli Gurriel will soon turn 35. That could give White enough room to blow away his previous career high in games played and join rare fantasy company in hitting above .270 with 25 home runs and 80 RBIs. Last year, White delivered 12 home runs and 42 RBIs in just 66 games. His righthanded, uppercut swing is built for Minute Maid Park, where the Crawford Boxes pad his power numbers. The 17-degree launch angle on his stroke gives him elite lift. Plus, Houston's high-octane lineup should provide plenty of opportunities to score and drive in runs that might not be present for Bell or Bauers.2019 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: | | | | | | |Second base: Daniel Robertson, Rays. Robertson has always been considered a high-caliber prospect, all the way back since his time in the A's system. Drafted in the first round of the 2012 Kylen Granson Jersey MLB Draft, he finally began putting it together last year, though his impre sive campaign washindered by a sprained thumb in August that should be healed by now. Robertson played four different positions, hit nine home runs and posted a .797 OPS in '18. He'll be overlooked because he's playing in Tampa Bay and playing time could be an i sue early in the year, but this is a legitimate young talent who can fill several premium positions on your roster if he starts getting regular at-bats.Shortstop: Corey Seager, Dodgers. Seager has an ADP of around 81 in both Yahoo and ESPN leagues, which is kind of crazy considering what he's done during his brief MLB career. Sure, he underwent Tommy John surgery and a [*****] procedure last year, but before that he was an elite middle infield fantasy bat. If Seager returns to his age-22 or 23 season levels, when he averaged 24 home runs, 74 RBIs and a .867 OPS, he would be worthy of a much higher selection than 81. He's about to turn 25, so it's also within reason for him to better those outputs amid a solid all-around Dodgers lineup.2019 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: | | | | | | | | Third base: Yoan Moncada, White Sox. It's very difficult to find a 20/20 threat outside the first 10 rounds, but Moncada could be that guy in 2019. Like Cubs star Javier Baez, who has long struggled with plate discipline, the multi-talented Moncada seems a few minor tweaks away from a huge breakout. Even if his batting average never impre ses, a 20-HR,20-SB season could soon become the norm for Jordan Murray Jersey the uber-talented youngster. It's important to note he won't be eligible at 3B on draft day, only 2B, but reports out of Chicago suggest he'll man the hot corner once the season starts.Outfielder: David Dahl, Rockies. When healthy, Dahl can be one of the best 25 fantasy outfielders in baseball. The problem is that so far in his MLB career, he's struggled to stay on the field. Almost every projection system has Dahl capitalizing on Coors Field to blast 25 home runs and drive in 80to go along with double-digit steals. That kind of production would make Dahl a bargain at his current ADP of 94, especially if you choose to focus more on other positions in the early rounds.2019 PROSPECT RANKINGS: Outfielder: Randal Grichuk, Blue Jays. Most people will not pay much attention to Toronto for fantasy purposes, obscuring the value Grichuk can provide. Almost everything points to his standout 2018 season being a building block for bigger things in the future, and at 27 he's at the perfect age to put in a career year. Last season, Grichuk ranked in the 82nd percentile in exit velocity, the 80th percentile in hard-hit percentage, the 84th percentile in expected slugging percentage, and the 81st percentile in sprint speed. A 30-HR season is on par with his those metrics, and his underrated speed on the bases could translate to a surprising stolen base tally.Outfielder: Ramon Laureano, Athletics. The Astros e sentially gifted Laureano to the A's for nothing last offseason, which now looks like amistake. Laureano was an instant hit Lenny Moore Jersey in Oakland, notching a walk-off in his debut against the Tigers and making perhaps the throw of the season from center field. He has the potential to hit 15 home runs and steal at least 20 bases, but because he was a midseason call-up in 2018, he'll go unnoticed by many fantasy owners.MOCK DRAFT SIMULATOR: Pitcher: Jesus Luzardo, Athletics. Luzardo's ceiling is American Rookie of the Year, and given Oakland's barren rotation, he should get every opportunity to start 25-plus games in 2019. Last year, he started in High-A and finished with a flourish in Triple-A, ending the year with 129 strikeouts in 109.1minor league innings acro s levels. Ther
