FACTS/FLUKES: Bichette, Sheets, Pena, Kirby, Ryan

Bichette has not lived up to his top-five ADP… Bo Bichette (SS, TOR) was a locked-in first-round pick after earning $40 5X5 value in 2021. Entering his age-24 season, it seemed that Bichette was a very strong bet to maintain, and potentially even build upon the excellent start to his career. With one month remaining in the season, however, he’s earned only $24 and has seen his BPV fall to only 29. What’s gone wrong?
