Fantasy 40/40: Top 10 Fantasy Third Baseman (3B)

Top 10 Fantasy Third Baseman (3B) – As of July 12th

Jose Bautista TOR – .334-31-65-73-5. You could argue that “Joey Bats” was the first half MVP, putting up gaudy numbers and proving last year was no fluke.  You could also argue that he’s the best hitter in baseball right now.  Does he reach 50?  He’s [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 30 Third Basemen (3B)

I know it’s late in the game, but I’m just getting around to finishing these.  Better late than never as they say, although most of you probably had your drafts this past weekend.

Evan Longoria TB – 2011 Projections: .285-36-118-105-10. With Longo coming off a down year, I see a huge campaign for this Tampa Bay [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 30 Shortstops (SS)

If you don’t get to draft either Hanley Ramirez or Troy Tulowitzki, you can probably wait. There’s Reyes, Rollins and Jeter.  Injuries, question marks and aging surround those three. There’s Andrus, Furcal and Ramirez.  Not bad options.  Desmond, Brignac and Bartlett.  Like I said, if you miss out on the two studs, there’s no problem [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 30 Second Basemen (2B)

With question marks surrounding Chase Utley, Robinson Cano slides into the top spot.  He’s 28, entering his prime, plays in a solid ballpark for lefties, in a lineup that would be competitive at an All-Star game.  Don’t get me wrong, I like Utley and thought he was capable of 28/18.  But his lingering health concerns [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 30 First Basemen (1B)

A lot of the fantasy sites this season are claiming that first base is super deep and you can wait for a slugger in the later rounds.  This is true.  If you don’t mind having Billy Butler, Paul Konerko or Gaby Sanchez as your main guy.  Personally, I won’t wait that long and will grab [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 30 Catchers

Here are my top 30 catchers for fantasy baseball 2011.  I’d like to repeat my catcher strategy when it comes to drafting.  I usually pass.  I’ve never used a pick before round 15 in snake drafts or $5 in auctions.  Catchers are pretty much interchangeable after the elites, so if you miss out on McCann [...]

Albert Pujols 1B STL
Hanley Ramirez SS FLA
Miguel Cabrera 1B DET – Thirsty fella?
Evan Longoria 3B TB

David Wright 3B NYM – People question.  He answers.  Every year.
Joey Votto 1B
Adrian Gonzalez 1B BOS – Wouldn’t [...]

I’ve already posted my TOP 10 and 11-20.  Here are 21-30.  Once again, these are my early rankings as I see them now.  I’ve already made changes to my 1-20 and I’m sure this list will see tweaking at some point as well.  Here’s an early look at my rankings – subject to change.

Fantasy 40/40: Early 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: TOP 20 Overall (11-20)

I started listing my early overall rankings on Friday providing my TOP 10 so far.  I continue it today with 11-20.  These rankings will change when my official projections come out.  Basically, a rough draft on a cocktail napkin, this is how they stack up so far.
I’ve been changing my 4 thru 16 picks like [...]
