“McCarthy should easily revert back to his 2011 self with an ERA in the 3.00 Range and 120 Ks. His ERA could even be below 3.00 if everything goes right and his Ks could go up. Pitchers that move from the AL to the NL usually do better, McCarthy should be an easy example showing that theory to be true.”

“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.”

 

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

 

“leash will be off in 2013”

 

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

 

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