Our '27' Tool Helps You Track Possible 27-Year Old Breakouts
Mike Aviles celebrated the big 27 last year, and if you're a fantasy player who saw that coming, you profited big-time from the numerological trick.
Mike Aviles celebrated the big 27 last year, and broke through into MLB in a big way. He spring training still at that magical age. We've updated our tracking tools to help you keep an eye on other ballplayers who could be hitting their genetic stride this season.
We've updated last year's popular 27 tool, which will let you check which ballplayers are 27 this season (or will be 27 in spring training, or will hit 27 during the year). So if you're a student of productivity theories, or just an armchair numerologist, you probably know that age 27 is the season in which ball players often take 'the next step' to stardom.
So if you're thinking about drafting a fantasy team made up of nothing but sleepers and surprises... now you've got one more tool to help you do that. You could do a lot worse than an entire team of 27 year olds.
