REST OF SEASON VALUE

The latest projections virtually match what is expected of Eddie Rosario, at least in terms of position ranking. As of 3/22, Eddie Rosario is the #20 ranked outfielder based on ownership percentage (96%). Projections rank him #21. There are other outfielders with virtually the same market rank (Lorenzo Cain, A.J. Pollock, Nick Castellanos, Thomas Pham 96% Owned) and Rosario ranks #4 out of 5. He is projected for 428 fantasy points in 138 remaining games. Based on average FPs, he is even better with the #19 highest average. The market ranks Eddie Rosario behind Pham and above Myers but the projections rank Myers over Eddie Rosario.

His value decreases in leagues where winning specific categories is important because he has more relative weaknesses than strengths.
