“Few pitchers can improve to a Cy Young season in one year, and then have the potential to be even better the following year, but with the overhauled improvement of the Rays infield defense to legendary defensive levels, Price could even exceed last years numbers. Don't be shy - Plus, the division is much weaker now as a whole”

 

“just 27 yrs old and put up better overall stats in 13 less IP comapred to 2011”

 

“Batters know the fastball si coming, and they still can't touch it. Price is a flamethrower that racks up innings.”

 

“Why is he being written off from the top tier?”

 

“200+ Ks. 20+ win potential, an ERA under 3.00. Not too much to complain about with David Price who is one of the best young pitchers in the game.”

“Did not take long for Ryan Braun to launch a HR in Spring Training (1st game). He hit 40 HRs, he had 30 SBs, he hits over .300. Ryan Braun is likely the #1 OF option you want on your fantasy roster this season.”

“1st in AL in WIns (20), ERA (2.56), Quality Starts (25)”

“Will he avoid getting burned by another PED fire? Probably”

 

“ Is he on PEDs and will be suspended 50 games? Is he now off of PEDs and will regress? From 2008 to 2012, Braun has averaged 605 at bats, 105 runs scored, 34 home runs, 109 runs batted in, 22 stolen bases, and a .312 batting average. These are great numbers to build the foundation for your fantasy baseball team in 2013. Braun has also managed to stay healthy his entire major league career, although he played through some minor groin, Achilles, and right hip issues last season. He overca...”

 

“You cannot fault anyone who takes Braun first in fantasy drafts. He may even be the safer pick than Trout, with his record of consistency, but it?s hard to pass on Trout?s upside. ”

 

“Possible PED Suspension Looming.”
