Sleepers: late round picks
1. BRENNAN BOESCH
2.LONNIE CHISENHALL
3.ADDISON REED, P, CHICAGO WHITE SOX
4ZACK COZART, SS, CINCINNATI REDS
5.LUCAS DUDA, OF, NEW YORK METS:
6.Edinson Volquez: sd chargers: pitch him at home
7 Ryan Roberts: can play 2nd and 3rd
mid round studs:
1. Jordan Zimmerman: Washington
2. Brandon McCarthy: opening day p of oakland
3. Want to wait for your 1st baseman that can also play
2nd and outfield? Draft Michael Cuddyer: Will have his best season ever in colorado
4. Howie Kendrick: 2nd and outfield: breakout season
5. Doug Fister: more wins and great whip
6. Hiroki Kuroda; pitching for yankees
7 Arod: if you have done any mocks he is the 8th 3rd baseman taken
Please don't draft without doing mocks on espn or yahoo. Only a moron
would do that, so yes i expect half reading this to do no mocks. Average pick 89
8. Michael pinada
9. Gio Gonz
10. Scott Baker: not alot of wins but good whip
You really can't go wrong with anyone in round 1, just have a strategy in mind and don't be
afraid to reach for a player if you want even if projected to go a round and a half later.
Hitting does not win fantasy. pitching does not win fantasy
Balance wins
Breakout players you should draft
1. Brett Lawrie: 3rd Toronto
2. Craig Kimbrel: Alot wait for closers but this guys saves, era, whip and strikeouts
make him worth taking. Take craig in round 5 or 6 and then don't draft another closer
until your last picks
3. Matt moore: p for tampa
4. Ichrio: yes ichiro: he will be batting 3rd this year and you can't go wrong with
his sb, average runs, and will get the most hr and rbi of his career.
5. Jeremy Hillickson: tampa
6. Matt Latos cincy
7 Howie Kendrick
8 Michael Cuddyer
9. If your okay in average: take nick swisher average pick 150
10. Want to wait for your 2nd baseman or ss? Take neil walker or Scurato: average pick 169
11. Joe Mauer; not a breakout year but considering he goes in round 11 in 12 team
leagues, he is well worth it, otherwise wait for your catcher. You can get a .300 batter
in salvatore perez in the last round.
Overrated players but will still have an impact: don't reach for any of these, only
if they fall to you
1.Yu Darvish: alot of better guys you can draft. Yu's era and whip won't be the greatest.
2. Mike Napoli: goes way too early: won't play everyday. stay away. Fill your other spots first
3. Shaun Marcum
4. Dee gordon: sb is overrated in fantasy: plenty to go around. if you draft for balance
you won't need gordon and his 1 homerun.
5. jordan Walden; era and whip is too high for a closer
6. Carlos Marmol: pass
7. Nick Markakus; Ive drafted him a few times in real and mocks. Not a bad player
but only take him if you need batting average
If you only draft 3 outfielders fill up those corners and middle infield first and there will
be plenty of outfielders to go around.
If you draft on espn and draft a ci mi and 5 outfielders don't wait too long for your
outfield or you'll be in trouble
Draft guys that can play more than one position or will have multiple position eligibilty
Never draft closers early unless you go the kimbrel way and then take closers later.
Nothing wrong with taking someone that gets spot saves. They get some wins, usually
have good strikeouts, era and whip
Late round closer and holds help:Addison Reed, grant balfour,
sergio santos, matt thorton,Johny venters, tyler clippard
Stay away from Adum Dunn: don't do it

31 homeruns on my team but almost everyone on my team had
over 20.
