Fantasy Analysis
Overbay's stock has fallen sharply over the last two seasons, and he projects to be a bench player for the Diamondbacks next year. He can be ignored in all but the deepest of Fantasy formats. (Updated 12/08/2011).
01/27/2012 04:25 2012 Fantasy outlooks: Arizona Diamondbacks
Arizona went from worst to first in 2011, but will the breakthrough performances that sent them to the playoffs return in 2012? Scott White dives into the Diamondbacks in a Fantasy team outlook.
Lyle Overbay, who turned 35 years old during the offseason, signed a one-year deal to remain with the Diamondbacks last December. However, he will serve as a bench player as Arizona is entrusting slugging phenom Paul Goldschmidt with the starting job at first base. Overbay appeared in 121 games last season, but his bat speed plummeted and he struck out 88 times while compiling a .234 batting average. His nine homers, including just one with Arizona, was the lowest total of his career when playing at least 100 games. Overbay still has the ability to draw a walk as evidenced by his .354 on-base percentage, but playing time will remain at a premium for the aging veteran. Fantasy owners should not consider him a worthwhile option outside of deeper NL-only Rotisserie formats in 2012 drafts. (Updated 2/8/12)
