“Lawrie's first three months of production: .292 with 8 HR, 48 R, 33 RBI, and 11 SB So, you can see he was on pace to at least come close to meeting his lofty 2012 expectations. If Lawrie can stay healthy in 2013 he should become the star many think he is/will be.”

“body seems to be breaking down on him making him an injury risk this season”

“Should be solid, if not spectacular, across the board (.280/20/80/90/20)”

“Top 5 fantasy offensive value from final week of June on (90 games)”

“Decent avg, double digit HR and SB, adn with the new lineup, Lawrie should get close to 90 R and RBI.”

“Zimmerman has the ability to be the second best 3rd Baseman in the league, but to do so he needs to remain healthy for a full season. He's only been able to do that in 2009 and 2010.”

“Barring an injury, which is certainly possible the way he throws his body around the field, he should see significant bumps in homers and R.B.I. in his second full season. ”

“He?s never quite reached his full potential, but is a statline of 25+ homers, near-.300 average, 90+ runs and near-100 R.B.I. such a bad thing?”

“Lawrie was a disappointment in 2012. Everyone expected 20/20, he was 11/11. The Speed potential is there, the power potential is there. With Jose Reyes now batting lead-off, Lawrie can find a constant spot in the batting order. Which should let him get his feet more grounded and that 20/20 season can arrive.”

“Zimmerman complained of his shoulder all season, yet still managed to knock out 25 HRs and 96 RBIs. He should only continue to improve as he is one of the new rising stars of the league. Zimmerman is a solid bat on your fantasy roster who can produce nightly.”
