Rendon used to wear the 'fragile' tag, but he has 156, 147 and 136 games played the last 3 seasons. OK, that's a downward trend, but it's still not bad.
2018 stats 597 PA, 308/374/535, 24 HR, 88 R, 92 RBI, 2 SB.
His steals have also declined 3 straight years, from 12 to 7 to 2. If you don't see those coming back, he might be a bit overdrafted.
He's currently the 7th 3B off the board in NFBC drafts since 1/1, going 42nd overall, about a pick behind Vladito.
His lineup will still be solid but not spectacular, even without Harper and Murphy (Eaton, Turner, Rendon, Zimm, Soto, Robles, Dozier, Gomes/Suzuki).
Steamer projects .287-21-80-80-4sb. Barring 155 games or a spike in BABIP and/or HR/FB%, I don't know if I see him doing a lot more than that. But he's only 28, so it could still happen.
