What to make of the guy who probably won folks a lot of money last year, likely being plucked off the waiver wire and leading MLB in steals. According to FanGraphs, he doesn't even have a full-time job this season.

I like the plate skills, league average 22% K rate and above average 10.4% BB rate. High BB rate helps in OBP format, and not completely devoid of power with a 5.9% barrel rate.
The lack of HR/R/RBI hurts his profile, but should provide a decent BA or OBP with a ton of SB. Great in deeper formats, which rosters usually have 3-4 black holes to start the year. Great as a bench bat to fill in for nagging injuries, given the 2B/3B/OF eligibility to start the year. Could be converted into a decent prospect if a contender is desperate for SB (as I was in dynasty last year, and traded Ricky Tiedemann for him).Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

Sorry, I forgot Segura is slated for third. That said, as of yesterday, Chisholm's position is still unclear. But I agree, Berti is likely more of a utility guy, whose playing time will depend on the health of his teammates.Follow me on Twitter @ToddZola
