I’ve recently listed my Top 10 overall for 2012. Note: Ryan Braun has been added my Top 10, so, technically, all these guys move down one slot. So here’s my 12-21.
12. Adrian Gonzalez 1B, BOS. I don’t know if the power drop-off was due to his shoulder issues or adapting to an easy, giant, left [...]
Who’s Hot
Ryan Braun MIL – How does one celebrate after signing a $105 million extension? By going 12 for 25 for the week with a stat line of 3 HR/9 RBI/9R and a SB for the cherry on top.
Ichiro Suzuki SEA – Hit .433 last week while stealing 4 bases and scoring 4 times. I [...]
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 [...]
Unless you’re a Packer or Steelers fan, you’re football season is over.

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 [...]
This is a position that turned out to be thin at the elite level and full of middle of the road types.

Note: The players listed qualified at SS before the season (20 games played last year) or [...]
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 [...]
Who is the next ballplayer fortunate enough and skillful enough to become a member of the elite and prestigious 40/40 club? Which fantasy super stud will take that next step to fantasy greatness. For those curious out there, I am referring to recording 40 homeruns (HR) and 40 stolen bases (SB) in a single season. [...]
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t/ Ain’t nothing changed for me except the year it is/ I think I have to send you a reminder/ Here it is.
- Jay-Z, “Reminder” - The Blueprint 3 (2009)
Reminder. Remember when the holy trinity of shortstops ruled MLB and fantasy baseball first rounds? It wasn’t that long ago… AROD. JETER. [...]
