In 2015, he enjoyed a spike in HR/FB, resulting in a career-high 21 homers. In 2016, his BABIP was aided by Lady Luck, as he rendered a career-best .275 average. Last season, his contact, walk and hard-hit rates were in sync with his normal level without the benefit of good fortune. The truth is, he was the same player as in the previous two campaigns, and in this renaissance era of shortstops, Crawford's production is rather pedestrian. He rarely runs, and when he did attempt to steal last season, he was caught more frequently than he succeeded. On the plus side, his glove assures that he will be in the lineup when healthy, which helps in deeper leagues in which at-bats are currency. Mixed leaguers should look for more upside, while NL-only managers should consider Crawford because his cost will reflect his deficiencies."},"mostRecentNews":{"date":"Mon Sep 24","news":"Crawford went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 9-2 loss to St. Louis.","spin":"Crawford was the lone bright spot for the Giants in an otherwise lifeless showing against starter Miles Mikolas. The 31-year-old needed exactly one extra game (four plate appearances) to match last year's mark of 14 homers. Crawford's .256/.322/.397 slash line is right on par with his 2017 marks, as he's providing another season of modest production at the shortstop position."},"fullName":"Brandon Crawford","playerRater30DAY":0.2,"playerRater15DAY":2.4,"playerId":2838}
