OT: Best Fantasy Baseball Game?

jrbro — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 01:43:12 -0000

I am looking at getting back into fantasy baseball next season and was wondering what everyone thought the best fanstasy baseball sites/leagues are? I would really like to find a continuing or dynasty league so that I can build a team and minor league system. I am not to concerned if the site costs money or not, but would lieke to have something that is consistent with a good group of owners. Any help would be great!

Top 100 Lists?

jrbro — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 23:30:54 -0000

Ok... going into a draft tommorrow and was wondering what sites have posted their top 100 2008 prospects? Who are the most reliable or who do I really want to just laugh at?

Who do you see as the true sleepers from last years MLB draft?

Any help would be great and appreciated.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

and thank you again

Ok... so he is only getting his second start, but man, he looks good in Cinci's line-up. Is he up to stay? Is he Cinci's starting 1b next season or is he stuck back in the minors?

If so.... what are reasonable expectations next season?

.285 BA .370 OBP 22 HR?

More or less?

Any other thoughts?

Ponson to be released

jrbro — Sun, 13 May 2007 21:02:57 -0000

According to rotoworld Mr. Ponson will be released as early as today. Slowley seems to in-line to get the call. Baker and Garza also have to thought about. I would like to see the Twins send Baker and someone to Cinci for E. Encarnacion since he was just demoted. Cinci could use the young SP and the twins could really use a 3b. Seems to make some sense to me....

Adam Miller vs. Matt Garza today. Both pitched well with Garza getting the best and the win by going 7ip 5h 2w 6k, while Miller goes 7ip 9h 3r 2er 1w 2k.
Anything else we want to watch for today or tonight? Any "sleepers" that anyone is keeping a particular eye on?

Josh Johnson vs. Andrew Miller

I have opportunity to move Josh Johnson for Andrew Miller in a league. My team in not that great and will be a better team in '08. With that being said, Who would you rather have on your team at that point? Johnson has proved himself in the majors for only one season, will it contine? Are the arm troubles something to worry about? Or is Andrew Miller just to good to pass up?

Thanks

Andrew Miller vs. Clayton Kershaw

jrbro — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 00:08:12 -0000

I have both of these players in a league of mine that lets you only protect 1 minor leaguer. These are my best two, so which one would you keep? I do not need them to perform for me this season, but am looking at future success. Kershaw seems to be the next Hughes/Bailey/Kazmir High School pitching stud but is a few years away.

Miller is a tall left handed monster who has a ton of potential. He is closer to the majors.

So if you had to choose one, which would it be?

Thanks

Any of these worth keeping?

jrbro — Sun, 07 Jan 2007 02:40:12 -0000

I just took over a team that has a number of pitching prospects and I need to see if I should cut them or if any of them have any chance to succeed?

Does anyone have any information about the following players?

Kevin Jepsen ANA
Jake Dittler CLE
Steven White NYY
Cesar Rasmos SD
Scott Tyler FLA

Any help would be great!

Sorry another Fantasy Trade Thread...

Which side would you prefer?

J. Bay, J. Crede, and R. Weeks

G Sizemore, E. Encarnacion (3b CIN), and Jose Lopez (2b, SEA)

the Sizemore side gets younger, but the drop from Weeks to Lopez seems to be a lot. Sizemore to me will be better than Bay and is younger and Crede is a injury risk, but can Encarnacion continue to improve?

jrbro — Wed, 27 Dec 2006 01:16:54 -0000

Justin Upton
Evan Longoria
Cameron Maybin
Andrew Miller
Kershaw SP LAD
Volstad SP FLA

Any help or opinions would be great. Thanks
