Sorare MLB Picks for GW39 Jul 24-27
Brice Turang
Brice Turang is the best captain choice because his Sorare projection (32.2) and The Sorare Edge (25.8) sit highest on the board while model confidence is HIGH and he has appeared in 13 of the last 15 game weeks, which points to regular starting lineup security and a dependable floor plus upside. Ketel Marte and Jackson Merrill are the closest rivals since both have perfect 15-game appearance runs and high confidence, but both fall a touch short on projections. Marte at 30.0 and Merrill at 29.9. So they offer a little less ceiling than Turang. The two relievers, Cole Sands and Brad Lord, carry lower projections and only sporadic recent usage with medium confidence, making them far more volatile because their scoring hinges on situational innings rather than steady plate appearances. In short, Marte and Merrill are the nearest threats but Turang’s combination of higher projected output and consistent playing time gives him the edge.
🏆 Top picks

If you want a middle-infield option you can pencil into the starting lineup, Brice Turang stands out for his availability and predictability, with 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks and a model confidence labeled HIGH. Sorare Edge pegs him at 25.8 points while Sorare's own forecast climbs to 32.2, a gap that reads like a reliable floor and a realistic upside into the low 30s on any given slate. He is a safe start in most formats, with a strong probability of returning steady counting production and enough ceiling to matter when things break right.

The simplest selling point for Ketel Marte is availability: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so you can plan your lineup around him without worrying about late scratches. Sorare's Edge projection is 24.0 points while Sorare's own model sits at 30.0, and model confidence is HIGH, which sets a clear floor with a meaningful ceiling if he racks up a couple of productive games. He is a sensible start in formats that prize steady at-bats and multi-category contribution, offering a reliable baseline and a realistic shot at paying off the 30.0-point projection.

Availability is the headline here: Jackson Merrill has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which signals a firmly established role in the Padres' outfield and gives him a dependable fantasy baseline. Sorare Edge pegs him at 23.9 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 29.9, and the model confidence is HIGH, numbers that point to meaningful upside in daily and weekly formats. Treat him as a high-floor starter with real breakout potential; he is the sort of player you slot into your starting lineup when you want steady counting stats and a legitimate chance for a bigger game.

A Sorare projection of 23.7 points puts Cole Sands on the radar as a high-upside bullpen option for the Minnesota Twins, especially in formats that reward hot relief outings. He has 0 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so his immediate floor is capped until he reappears, but the model's projection implies a meaningful ceiling if he re-enters the mix. Model confidence is medium, which makes him a speculative play best used as a contrarian upside piece rather than a safe roster staple.

Brad Lord profiles as a boom-or-bust relief pitcher for the Washington Nationals, with Sorare Edge and Sorare's own model both projecting a healthy 23.5 points. That projection paints him as a true upside play in single-game and tournament formats, but his role is the big caveat since he has just two appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which caps the weekly floor. Model confidence sits at medium, so there is a reasonable probability of payoff when he gets the ball, but treat him as a high-ceiling leverage option rather than a reliable weekly reliever.
🔥 Starting Pitchers (SP)

The upside is the headline: Sorare Edge puts him at 20.1 points while Sorare's own model sits at 25.1, so when Brayan Bello is on a normal turn he profiles as a fantasy-start with real ceiling. That upside comes with a clear caveat, he has one appearance in the last 15 game weeks, which makes availability and inning limits the biggest downside and keeps his floor modest until you get a confirmed full start. Model confidence is MEDIUM, so use him as a high-upside streamer rather than a nailed-on anchor unless Boston confirms he’s locked into a standard rotation slot.

Availability is the story with Jacob deGrom for the Texas Rangers, he has just two appearances in the last 15 game weeks which keeps his floor low despite the upside every start offers. Sorare Edge projects 19.1 pts and Sorare itself 23.9 pts, numbers that imply the kind of strikeout and run-suppression ceiling you want from a top starter. With model confidence medium, treat him as a high-upside, risk-reward option you start when you need ceiling rather than a steady, safe floor.

Cease profiles as a high-ceiling Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher, with Sorare tipping him at 23.1 points and the Edge at 18.5, numbers that make him an attractive start when you are chasing upside. He has made three appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which creates some rhythm and deployment uncertainty and is reflected by the model confidence being medium, so expect volatility between a modest floor and a sizable ceiling. Use him as a matchup-dependent upside play rather than a safe, guaranteed option.

Adrian Houser's appeal this slate is the upside baked into the projections, with Sorare at 23.1 points and Sorare Edge still backing him at 18.5, so the ceiling is tempting for a starting pitcher from the San Francisco Giants. He has made four appearances in the last 15 game weeks, and the model's confidence is MEDIUM, which signals a meaningful chance of volatility and a somewhat capped floor. Use him when you need swingy upside rather than a sure baseline outing, because the probabilities favor some strong returns but also leave room for disappointment given the limited recent workload.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto's biggest selling point is pure upside on the scoreboard: Sorare pegs him at 22.8 points while the Edge model still gives him a healthy 18.2, numbers that scream high-ceiling starts when he hits his stride. He has made three appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so the recent workload and the medium model confidence temper the floor and make him a touch volatile. Use him as a swing-for-the-fences option in deeper formats or when you need strikeout and quality-start upside, but expect a wider range of outcomes than a fully locked-in innings eater.
🔄 Relief Pitchers (RP)

A Sorare projection of 23.7 points puts Cole Sands on the radar as a high-upside bullpen option for the Minnesota Twins, especially in formats that reward hot relief outings. He has 0 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so his immediate floor is capped until he reappears, but the model's projection implies a meaningful ceiling if he re-enters the mix. Model confidence is medium, which makes him a speculative play best used as a contrarian upside piece rather than a safe roster staple.

Brad Lord profiles as a boom-or-bust relief pitcher for the Washington Nationals, with Sorare Edge and Sorare's own model both projecting a healthy 23.5 points. That projection paints him as a true upside play in single-game and tournament formats, but his role is the big caveat since he has just two appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which caps the weekly floor. Model confidence sits at medium, so there is a reasonable probability of payoff when he gets the ball, but treat him as a high-ceiling leverage option rather than a reliable weekly reliever.

Andrés Muñoz is an upside reliever to consider this slate, with Sorare Edge at 23.1 points and Sorare's own model even higher at 28.9, and the model is reporting high confidence in those projections. He has seven appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so the Mariners have turned to him with some regularity, which gives him a steadier floor than pure one-off specialists. Treat him as a high-upside, moderate-floor play: the projections suggest a meaningful chance at a big fantasy outing if he sees similar usage, but his ceiling is still tightly tied to how often he gets into short, high-leverage work.

Milwaukee's Trevor Megill presents more upside than certainty, with Sorare's own projection at 28.6 points and the Edge model at 22.9, numbers that make him an appealing ceiling play among relievers. He has made five appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so the Brewers are deploying him enough to matter but not locking him into heavy volume, and the model's medium confidence suggests meaningful volatility. Treat him as a high-upside relief option best used when you can tolerate swings; he's a stronger target for tournament lineups than as a cash-game anchor.

If you want upside from Tampa Bay's bullpen, Bryan Baker's projections jump off the page; Sorare pegs him at 28.5 points and The Sorare Edge at 22.8, which signals a ceiling fantasy managers can reasonably chase. That optimism is tempered by usage, since he has four appearances in the last 15 game weeks and the model's confidence is medium, so his floor is capped if he remains an occasional arm. Treat him as a mid risk, high reward play best used in tournament lineups or as a volatility add rather than a cash-game staple, because the numbers promise upside but depend on more consistent leverage work.
🧤 First Base (1B)

Pete Alonso, first base for the Baltimore Orioles, sells the clearest fantasy benefit you can ask for: steady availability. He has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which locks in a reliable floor of plate appearances and counting opportunities. Sorare Edge projects 21.6 points while Sorare's own model sits at 26.0 points, and model confidence is HIGH, so he profiles as a high-probability contributor rather than a lottery ticket. As a regular in the starting lineup at first base he brings the power and counting-stat upside to outperform those marks on any given day, making him a comfortable start with occasional ceiling pop.

Isaac Paredes has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, a clear sign he is entrenched in the Astros' starting lineup and brings a steady floor at first base. Sorare Edge projects him for 20.9 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 23.8, and the model confidence is HIGH, which raises the probability he hits that ceiling more often than not. He profiles as a power-on-base bat whose upside comes from extra-base contact and run production, so he is a sensible start in most formats even if day-to-day variance can trim the ceiling occasionally.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr is as close to a safe power anchor as you will find at first base, logging 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks and carrying model confidence HIGH. Sorare Edge gives him 20.4 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 25.4, figures that back a strong floor from steady volume and a ceiling fueled by his run-producing power. Expect reliable counting stats most nights and a real chance for multi-RBI upside, which makes him an easy start in formats that reward consistency and extra-base production.

What sells Curtis Mead is availability and a steady role at first base; he has 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which gives him a dependable floor and regular chances to produce counting stats. The projections back that up, with Sorare pegging him at 24.4 points and Sorare Edge at 19.5, and model confidence is HIGH, so his upside is meaningful while the downside looks controlled. He is a sensible start when you need a steady contributor from first base, offering a higher-probability path to points than many swing-for-the-fences alternatives, even though nothing is guaranteed.

Durability is the headline: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks make Devers a locked-in presence at first base for the San Francisco Giants and give him a solid fantasy floor. The analytics agree, with Sorare Edge at 19.4 points and Sorare's projection at 24.3, figures that signal meaningful weekly upside rather than fringe value. Model confidence is high, so the higher-probability move is to start him when you want dependable counting stats, while still banking on occasional boom weeks.
🧤 Third Base (3B)

The real lure with José Ramírez is upside, not safety: Sorare's own projection puts him at 28.3 points and the Sorare Edge model at 22.6, numbers that make him fantasy-relevant whenever he's in the lineup. That potential comes with a clear caveat, he has 0 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so his floor is capped and the model flags this as a medium confidence play. Use him as a high-ceiling option once you see active-list or lineup confirmation, because when available the projections justify starting him, but the probability of reaching that ceiling is noticeably uncertain.

Availability is the clearest edge for Arenado; he has 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which gives him a steadier fantasy floor than most corner bats. That regular playing time pairs with real upside at third base, and Sorare Edge projects 22.5 points while Sorare's own model sits at 25.8, with model confidence high, so the probability of a solid return this week leans in your favor. He is a playable start in most formats when you want a reliable bat with a meaningful ceiling, even if you should expect more steady production than boom-or-bust fireworks.

If you want a steady third base option, Manny Machado has been a fixture for the Padres with 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which gives him a dependable floor for cash lineups. His Sorare Edge projection is 21.8 points and Sorare's own model lifts that to 27.3 points, with model confidence flagged as HIGH, so the analytics point to a meaningful ceiling and a strong probability of payoff. Treat him as a low-variance starter who still offers upside for tournaments, since his availability reduces downside while both projections suggest above-average output.

Bohm's biggest asset right now is availability and stability, with 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks giving managers a very dependable floor from a regular third baseman. Sorare Edge projects 17.4 points while Sorare's own model is more aggressive at 21.8, and model confidence is high, so there is a realistic chance he outperforms the safer baseline in any given slate. As an everyday presence for Philadelphia he reduces lineup risk and offers a midrange ceiling that makes him a solid, lower-volatility start rather than a boom-or-bust flyer.

Availability is the deciding factor here: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks tells you Riley is locked into Atlanta's everyday mix and offers a dependable fantasy floor. Sorare Edge pegs him at 17.2 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 21.5, and with model confidence HIGH that gap reads like real upside rather than wishful thinking. As the Braves' third baseman he brings the sort of power and on-base traits that can flip a slate, so treat him as a steady start with a meaningful ceiling on any given night rather than a boom-or-bust flier.
🎯 Designated Hitter (DH)

Durability is the headline here; Díaz has 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks and as Tampa Bay's designated hitter that steady presence gives him a reliable floor. Sorare Edge lands him at 19.5 points and Sorare's own projection is 24.4, and with model confidence listed as HIGH the odds favor a useful fantasy outing rather than a dud. He fits best as a dependable, lower-variance option who still carries upside when the projections click, making him an easy plug-and-play choice for lineups that need consistent run production.

Dillon Dingler's clearest advantage is opportunity; as Detroit's designated hitter he has 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which points to regular plate appearances and a reliable floor of counting stats. Sorare's own projection sits at 24.3 points while the Sorare Edge is 19.5, and the model flags confidence as HIGH, so the numbers favor rostering him as a steady midrange option. Expect a dependable baseline with a reasonable ceiling if he strings together extra damage, and view him as more likely to deliver consistent production than to be purely boom-or-bust.

Daylen Lile is as close to a plug-and-play designated hitter as you'll find right now, with 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks giving him a high floor in daily and weekly formats. Sorare Edge projects 17.3 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 21.7, and the model confidence is HIGH, so his ceiling is credible and his week-to-week production is safer than most mid-range options. If you want steady plate appearances and a dependable baseline rather than boom-or-bust upside, Lile is a sensible start.

Reliability is the first thing you buy with Ivan Herrera; he has appeared in all 15 of the last 15 game weeks as the Cardinals' designated hitter, so you can count on him to be in the starting lineup. The analytics are similarly supportive, with Sorare Edge at 16.1 points and Sorare's own projection at 20.1, and model confidence rated HIGH, which raises the probability his ceiling will be reachable in any given week. Treat him as a steady-floor option with credible upside when you want dependable plate appearances and a chance at the bigger weekly returns rather than a high-variance dart throw.

Heim's most attractive trait right now is availability and predictability at the plate, with 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks that underline a steady DH role. Sorare's projection sits at 19.1 points while the Edge pegs him at 15.3, and with model confidence flagged as HIGH you can reasonably expect a reliable floor and a sensible upside in daily formats. Treat him as a safe, above-average designated hitter whose value is tied to that consistent playing time, with upside that should be managed probabilistically rather than assumed.
🎯 Shortstop (SS)

If you want upside at shortstop this slate, Peña is hard to ignore; Sorare's models peg him for 20.1 to 25.2 points and they report high confidence, so his ceiling is legitimately one of the more attractive plays at the position. He has five appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which does trim his floor and flags a rotation or availability risk, so only roster him where you can tolerate a stumble. When he is in the lineup the projections argue he can move a lineup on his own, making him a worthwhile high-upside option rather than a safe floor play.

Willy Adames is appealing mostly because he is in steady action, with 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks giving him a dependable floor for fantasy lineups. Sorare pegs him aggressively, with its projection at 21.4 points and the Sorare Edge projection at 17.7 points, and model confidence listed as HIGH, so the analytics point to a meaningful ceiling and a good chance he reaches that range. He brings the shortstop profile you want for upside in weekly formats, combining power and on-base traits with secure playing time, making him a start-worthy option while still carrying the usual variance of any power hitter.

Jarvis has quietly cemented a steady role for the Braves, with 11 appearances in the last 15 game weeks that make him an attractive shortstop option for roster stability. Both projections land on the useful side, with Sorare Edge at 17.1 pts and Sorare itself at 21.4 pts, and the model confidence registering high, which raises the probability you get a reliable floor and regular production. He is a strong low-variance start when you need dependable fantasy innings, while the gap between projections still leaves some upside for managers chasing a bit more ceiling.

Winn's biggest asset right now is availability and a steady role, as shown by 14 appearances in the last 15 game weeks that give him a reliable floor at shortstop for the St. Louis Cardinals. The numbers support that trust; Sorare Edge projects 13.9 points while Sorare's model sits at 17.4, and with model confidence HIGH you should treat that mid-teens range as a realistic expectation rather than fiction. He's a sensible start in most lineups where you need dependable counting value, with most outcomes likely clustering around the lower-to-mid end of that range but a clear upside if things heat up.

Availability is the most decisive trait for Dansby Swanson, the Chicago Cubs shortstop; he has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which gives him a dependable floor you can count on. Sorare Edge projects 12.8 pts and Sorare's own projection sits at 16.1 pts, and with model confidence labeled HIGH the odds favor a mid-teens performance rather than a dud. He does not bring boom-or-bust volatility, so treat him as a steady start who gives safe baseline production with occasional upside when the offense clicks.
🎯 Second Base (2B)

If you want a middle-infield option you can pencil into the starting lineup, Brice Turang stands out for his availability and predictability, with 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks and a model confidence labeled HIGH. Sorare Edge pegs him at 25.8 points while Sorare's own forecast climbs to 32.2, a gap that reads like a reliable floor and a realistic upside into the low 30s on any given slate. He is a safe start in most formats, with a strong probability of returning steady counting production and enough ceiling to matter when things break right.

The simplest selling point for Ketel Marte is availability: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so you can plan your lineup around him without worrying about late scratches. Sorare's Edge projection is 24.0 points while Sorare's own model sits at 30.0, and model confidence is HIGH, which sets a clear floor with a meaningful ceiling if he racks up a couple of productive games. He is a sensible start in formats that prize steady at-bats and multi-category contribution, offering a reliable baseline and a realistic shot at paying off the 30.0-point projection.

Sam Antonacci's biggest selling point right now is availability and analytical conviction; as the White Sox second baseman with 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks he pairs regular playing time with strong model backing, and model confidence is HIGH. Sorare Edge puts him at 18.1 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 22.7, figures that underline a dependable floor and a real ceiling if he remains entrenched in the starting lineup. For fantasy managers who value steadiness over volatility, Antonacci is a sensible start most days, offering a higher probability of consistent point production than true boom-or-bust bench options.

Availability is Stott's biggest strength: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks shows he is firmly in the Philadelphia Phillies' day-to-day plans, which gives you a dependable floor at second base. His Sorare Edge projection is 17.7 and Sorare's own projection is 21.1, with model confidence marked HIGH, so the upside is tangible and the probability of a useful fantasy return is above average. Slot him in where you prize steadiness; he rarely offers boom-or-bust fireworks, but he delivers consistent counting opportunities when he sees a full slate of at-bats.

Availability is the first thing you buy with Ernie Clement; he has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, giving him a dependable floor you can roster without sweating late scratches. The projections back that up, with a Sorare Edge projection of 17.3 points and Sorare's own 21.1-point forecast, and the model confidence flagged as HIGH, which leans the odds toward the upside more than a dart throw. If you need a steady middle-infield piece who offers more ceiling than the usual bench plug, Clement is a sensible start rather than a speculative one.
🧤 Catcher (C)

Hot projection and dependable usage make Diaz an easy plug-in at catcher this week. Sorare pegs him at 20.8 points while the Edge model gives 16.6, and model confidence is HIGH, so the data favors a meaningful ceiling and a trustworthy projection. He has 11 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which supports a steadier floor than most late-inning or matchup-only backstops. Start him when you need a solid floor with upside; the reward is skewed toward finishing near that higher Sorare mark if things go right.

The clearest reason to consider Daniel Susac is the fantasy upside baked into the projections, with Sorare putting him at 15.2 points and the Edge at 12.2, numbers that make him an intriguing catcher target if he’s in the lineup. That upside comes with a real caveat, he has made one appearance in the last 15 game weeks, so his floor is capped by playing-time uncertainty and you should view him as a rotation risk. Model confidence is MEDIUM, so Susac is a viable boom-or-bust streaming option when he’s listed in the starting lineup, but plan for volatility until his role stabilizes.

If you want a catcher who gives you a steady floor, Logan O'Hoppe's 11 appearances in the last 15 game weeks and the model's HIGH confidence make him an easy, dependable plug-in. Sorare Edge puts him at 11.3 points while Sorare itself projects 14.1, numbers that translate into above-average upside for the position and a week-to-week return you can lean on. Start him in formats that prize catcher stability, accepting a modest ceiling for a much safer probability of usable production.

The most compelling thing here is opportunity. Bailey has logged 10 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so you are buying playing time at a thin position rather than upside hope. The projections back that up, with Sorare Edge at 8.3 pts and Sorare's own model at 10.3 pts, and model confidence HIGH, which suggests a steady floor and a decent probability he delivers useful weekly production for your catcher slot.

Sánchez's biggest selling point is pure positional upside, with Sorare projecting 10.3 points and the Edge model at 8.2, figures that make him a legitimate fantasy differentiator at catcher. Model confidence is medium and he has six appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so intermittent playing time caps his floor and turns him into more of a high-upside play than a lock. If you can confirm he's in your starting lineup, you should view him as a matchup-driven start where the ceiling justifies the risk, while expecting some volatility week to week.
🌾 Outfield (OF)

Availability is the headline here: Jackson Merrill has 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which signals a firmly established role in the Padres' outfield and gives him a dependable fantasy baseline. Sorare Edge pegs him at 23.9 points while Sorare's own projection sits at 29.9, and the model confidence is HIGH, numbers that point to meaningful upside in daily and weekly formats. Treat him as a high-floor starter with real breakout potential; he is the sort of player you slot into your starting lineup when you want steady counting stats and a legitimate chance for a bigger game.

Availability is the clearest advantage here: 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks means Tucker is a regular piece you can reliably plug into your starting lineup. The numbers back that up, with Sorare Edge at 21.0 points and Sorare itself even more bullish at 26.3, and model confidence is HIGH, which lowers the chance this is a fluky projection. Treat him as a high-floor option with substantial upside; he should deliver steady counting stats and a reasonable shot at outperforming his baseline.

Tyler Soderstrom projects as a high-upside outfield option this week, with the Sorare Edge at 20.9 points and Sorare's own model even higher at 26.1, and the model confidence flagged as HIGH. Those numbers suggest a strong ceiling whenever he gets regular reps, but his usage tempers the floor since he has seven appearances in the last 15 game weeks. Use him as a matchup-driven start in formats that reward big single-game outputs; he looks playable as a boom-or-bust piece rather than a nailed-on everyday contributor.

Fifteen appearances in the last 15 game weeks tell you everything you need to know about his role: Valdez is an everyday outfield option for Pittsburgh with a secure path to plate appearances and a usable floor. The projections back that usage, with Sorare Edge at 20.6 points and Sorare itself at 25.7 points, and the model confidence is HIGH, so there is a strong probability his regular playing time translates into steady fantasy production. Treat him as a safe-start with upside for matchups where you need dependable counting stats rather than a boom-or-bust flyer.

Mitchell's biggest asset right now is availability and role stability, with 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks that give him a dependable baseline you can trust in daily lineups. The market and the model agree he has upside, with Sorare Edge at 20.1 pts and Sorare's own projection at 25.1 pts, and model confidence flagged as HIGH, so that ceiling looks realistic rather than speculative. Expect a steady floor driven by regular plate appearances and a reasonable chance to outproduce projection when run-scoring chances come his way, making him an attractive start over higher-variance options.

That regular playing time pairs with real upside at third base, and Sorare Edge projects 22.5 points while Sorare's own model sits at 25.8, with model confidence high, so the probability of a solid return this week leans in your favor. He is a playable start in most formats when you want a reliable bat with a meaningful ceiling, even if you should expect more steady production than boom-or-bust fireworks.

A Sorare projection of 23.7 points puts Cole Sands on the radar as a high-upside bullpen option for the Minnesota Twins, especially in formats that reward hot relief outings. He has 0 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, so his immediate floor is capped until he reappears, but the model's projection implies a meaningful ceiling if he re-enters the mix. Model confidence is medium, which makes him a speculative play best used as a contrarian upside piece rather than a safe roster staple.

Brad Lord profiles as a boom-or-bust relief pitcher for the Washington Nationals, with Sorare Edge and Sorare's own model both projecting a healthy 23.5 points. That projection paints him as a true upside play in single-game and tournament formats, but his role is the big caveat since he has just two appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which caps the weekly floor. Model confidence sits at medium, so there is a reasonable probability of payoff when he gets the ball, but treat him as a high-ceiling leverage option rather than a reliable weekly reliever.
