“25/25 skills are real but the '12 BA (.327) is likely to regress a bit”

“Goodbye IP cap, hello 225+ Ks and, perhaps, a Cy Young award”

“Can you trust his batting average?”

 

“Yet another five-category star at the position, his second-half struggles have some concerned. But the 26-year-old is worth the investment after making a huge jump into the top-tier last season. ”

 

“ Andrew McCutchen had a career year with Pittsburgh last season, and I see a lot of regression for 2013. Although still in growth mode at age 26, there is nothing in his stats to say that he is a 30 home run hitter. In fact, he is closer to a 20 home run hitter. My bigger concern for McCutchen is his stolen bases. He gets caught stealing more than you might think. Here is a breakdown of his numbers: SB CS SB% 33 10 77% 23 10 70% 20 12 63% ...”

“My NL CY Young Award winner for 2013. Read more at http://www.FantasySportsEmpires.com ”

“Does not get more Clutch than Cutch. In 2012 he showed the full package with a .327 Average that brought him 31 HRs/96 RBIs/20 SBs. He vows to steal more in 2013, but the power will likely not get any better. He is a rising star and 30/30 is more than possible.”

“The Nats want Stras to throw 200 INN in 2013. He had 197 Ks in 159 INN in 2012. His potential is too much to pass on and should easily be the #1 Pitcher taken in Fantasy Baseball with the Nationals also having the best bullpen in the game today.”

“McCutchen finshed 2011 with a .259 BA, hit .253 in last two months of 2012 while SB have declined each of the last three seasons (SB rate was just 63% in 2012)”

“leash will be off in 2013”

 

“Strasburg might have the nastiest pitches in the league, but he doesn't throw enough innings to rank higher than Price/Felix”
