Fantasy 40/40: 2012 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 10 Overall

This is my Top 10 for 2012.  It’s changed about thirty-six times.  And I’m sure it will change again before I start drafting.

Miguel Cabrera 1B, DET.  After the signing of Prince Fielder, I wanted to move Cabrera into the top spot surpassing King Albert.  Cabrera has been a model of consistency, is in his prime [...]

Fantasy 40/40: Fantasy 40/40: Who’s Hot, Who’s Not

Who’s Hot

Yuniesky Betancourt MIL – He’s only batting .240-something on the season, but has been collecting multi-hit games recently and left the yard twice this past week.
Tony Gwynn Jr. LA – All kinds of issues for the Dodgers right now, but Mr. Gwynn seems to be playing just fine.  He’s taking advantage of the playing [...]

Fantasy 40/40: Early 2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: TOP 10 Overall

Unless you’re a Packer or Steelers fan, you’re football season is over.
The NBA is up and running, but lets get real, the season really doesn’t start until the playoffs begin which is sometime this summer.
What’s left?
Pitchers and catchers are set to report in less than three weeks, that’s what.  And so it’s time to start [...]

Fantasy 40/40: 2010 Fantasy Baseball Final Rankings: Top 40 Third Basemen (3B)

Who out there really saw 54 HR coming?  I didn’t.  I don’t even think Jose did.  But, Mr. Bautista was the number one ranked third baseman in fantasy baseball in 2010.  He led the majors in HRs and was second to Miguel Cabrera in RBI.  Will he repeat in 2011?  Probably not.  He is, however, [...]

Twenty-twenty.
25/25

Chris B. Young OF, ARI – 27/28 – Might be a potential NL Comeback Player of the year.  C.Y. had a fantastic season out in the desert, posting solid numbers across the board.  After a 32/27 season back in ‘07, he had two years  of struggles, but is developing as a hitter and becoming what [...]

Fantasy 40/40: Fantasy News From Around the Diamond

Evan Longoria TB – The cover boy was a HR shy of the cycle, driving in 3 and scoring another.
Matt Garza TB – Shut [...]

Ryan Braun MIL – The Hebrew Hammer also went 5 for 7 in the [...]
