Early buy low targets, 2025
May 19 2025
Hitters that have hurt you with bad early stats can be easily viewed as guys to avoid or good sell-low targets. After all, we want to accumulate as few bad or empty stats as possible while the season is still young. But doing so locks in those losses and prevents you from enjoying the ride back up.
