RotoBaller Impact Prospects Revisited

I wanted to take a quick moment to revisit my preseason prospect rankings, which looked at the top fifteen prospects who I expect to make an impact during the 2013 season.

Top Ten Middle Relievers Who Could Be Closers in 2013

Closer is an important spot on any fantasy baseball roster, but you should avoid spending too much on draft day, because as many as a third of Opening Day closers are replaced by the end of each season. RotoBaller says to keep an eye on the setup men that sit behind some of the shakier […]

RotoBaller.com Rankings: 2013 Starting Pitcher Rankings with ADP Comparison

Starting pitchers are my favorite position in fantasy baseball. They give you a ton of draft flexibility, and help you win your leagues. If you can pick the right guys in the later rounds, then your early rounds can be used to stock up on hitting. Let’s put it this way... fantasy SPs are like […]

RotoBaller.com Rankings: 2013 Outfield Rankings with ADP Comparison

Outfield is a slightly deceptive position in fantasy baseball, and that may be even more true this year than in years past. Each year, there are lots of real studs at the top, and lots of really solid players on the middle. Naturally, my first reaction was that I can wait to draft a top […]

Regardless of where you draft, you need to prepare for this position. And if you prefer to take a late-round flier […]

RotoBaller.com Rankings: 2013 First Base Rankings with ADP Comparison

First Base. Ahhhh yes, First Base. My favorite position in fantasy baseball. It's the beginning of everything. First Base is where it all starts... in both fantasy, and real life ;-).

Digging Deeper into Third Base - 2013 Fantasy Baseball 3B Rankings

  3B is always one of the tougher positions to lock down, especially when you wait around on draft day. If your league has a CI position, it’s always good to lock up 3B early and do yourself a favor by taking a second 3B as well-- it’s a solid backup plan, and it can […]
