2016 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values: Marcell Ozuna

Marcell Ozuna of the Miami Marlins may have had an underwhelming season in 2015, but all signs point to him bouncing back next season to his 2014 form.

Okay, so you’ve heard some chatter about this Korean power hitter who the Twins signed this offseason, but you still aren’t sure what he brings to the table.

2016 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values: Jonathan Schoop

In recent years, the Baltimore Orioles have done a great job of balancing their lineup out with a mix of young talent and veteran presence.
