"2024 Fantasy Baseball Draft: Top Hitters, Sleepers, and Underrated Picks"

In the 2024 Fantasy Baseball Draft, hitters Spencer Torkelson and Eloy Jimenez are highlighted as potential valuable picks. Torkelson, despite a slow start, showed significant improvement in the latter part of the 2023 season, displaying strong power and promising StatCast data. Jimenez, although plagued by injuries, has shown improvement in his strikeout rate and has the potential for a 30-homer pace. Both players are worth considering in fantasy baseball drafts, with Torkelson projected to hit in the middle of the Detroit Tigers' lineup and Jimenez as a rare middle-of-the-order hitter available after pick 175.
