“Lind will return to his POWER potential we all know he is capable of. The Blue Jays are going to give him a long leash to prove he is the 30+ HR guy the Jays expect him to be. Draft Adam late with the upside of getting one of the best sleepers at this position, he will have ducks on the pond all day with this lineup.”

“Joe is one of those catchers who will get you a great RBI total, along with an award winning batting average. Not to mention nearly 100 Runs. While also throwing in some low double digit HR totals to go with double digit steals. He will make you happy as a fantasy owner.”

 

“If you're drafting Mauer, make sure you get your power elsewhere. He can supplement a moderate AVG team, though.”

 

“bounced back some in 2012 see more then 10 HR this year & a .300 avg (from a catcher is great) ”

 

“On my all bust team for 2013. Read more at http://www.FantasySportsEmpires.com ”
