RotoWire's Preseason Outlooks

2013

Subscribe now to see our 2013 outlook.

2012

Avery's rough minor league career continued in 2011. In a full season at Double-A, Avery's contact issues lingered, as he struck out in 24.9 percent of his at-bats, leading to a .259 average. He simply doesn't have the skills to get beyond the low batting average, either, as he walked in fewer than 8.0 percent of his at-bats and hit only four home runs in 626 plate appearances. At age 22, he is young, so he can still make it if he can improve in a second go-round at Double-A in 2012. Long term, his greatest asset to fantasy owners will be stolen bases if he's able to hit enough to avoid being used as a fifth outfielder with a good glove.
