Rotoballer Targets: Cheap Sources for Power - Week Two April 9-16

Week One saw Chris Davis dominate and Will Middlebrooks have a 3-HR day against the Blue Jays.

RotoBaller Targets: Cheap Sources for Steals

RotoBaller knows that you need steals to compete in fantasy baseball.  If you punt steals, you’ll reduce your chances of winning immensely.  BUT, you don't have to spend a lot on steals to compete.  If you've focused your draft on heavy power hitters who rack up the HR and RBI, then you've come to the right […]

Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper? Justin Morneau

(This article was recently updated based on current ADP trends) Justin Morneau could be good. Sigh, what’s there to say about a former MVP who is still only 31 and just two years removed from a half-season where he batted .345 with 18 HR and 56 RBI? Is he another Jason Bay-- i.e., someone whose […]

Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers? Alcides Escobar

(This article was recently updated based on current ADP trends) Alcides Escobar is going to go as far as his legs can take him in 2013. His entire fantasy value is based on his speed, including how he gets on base and what he does once he's there. Escobar had 26 SB in 2011, and […]

Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers? Carlos Santana

(This article was recently updated based on current ADP trends) The “thing” I like most about Carlos Santana is the fact that he is a “catcher.” You see, (wink wink), he is a top-tier fantasy baseball "catcher," even though he will most likely play at least a third of his games at 1B or DH. […]

Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers? Cameron Maybin

Currently going after round 17 in most mixed leagues, Cameron Maybin is the poster child for a post-hype sleeper (see our Outfield Ranks and ADP Comparison). It feels like he’s been in the majors for years and that’s because he has-- he made his debut in 2007 at the age of 20; now six years […]
