“Hart's going to miss the first two months of the season, but it's easier to stash a player on the DL at the beginning of the year, than the end. His positional versatility and power can really help your team down the stretch.”

“Encarnacion has always had power, but 42 HR seems like an aberration. Depending on where he hits in the Blue Jays lineup, though, he could do some majore R and RBI damage.”

“Corey was hurt in 2012 with a bad knee, yet he still managed to hit 30 HRs while hitting .270. Corey is one of the most underrated power hitting 1B options in baseball, and if he can remain healthy an entire year 35/100 is certainly possible. Especially with Braun and Aramis Ramirez batting in front of him to set up RBI situations. His injury status will reflect his final ranking.”

“Edwin has always been a streaky hitter. But last season he was finally able to smash the ball at the rate we all knew he could. 40+ HRs/110+ RBIs could scream fluke, but then again you should not go lightly on him and let another owner steal that potential.”

“Mid-to-late May return”

 
 

“His spike in power coincided with a preseason mechanical adjustment at the plate, so not expecting too much regression.”

 

“Do you believe the power? I do, but losing 3B eligibility hurts his stock”

 

“I understand the trepidation people have to pay through the nose to get a player that was available for less than $10 in 12 team mixers the previous year, but E5 deserves your auction dollars and early snake draft pickup. Monster season coming again”

 

“Had his put-it-all-together Bautista '10-like breakout last season”
