“Virtual .300/20/15 lock, but run prod. hurt by lack of lineup support”

 

“Wright's SB potential is something of a rarity among the heavy hitting 3B. It's a bit of a concern that his power has been inconsistent, but he's a top player once again.”

 

“He just turned 30, but there is no reason to expect anything less than what he did in 2012: good production in all five categories. ”

 

“The last of the stud tier of 3B”

 

“Suffered an intercostal sprain in spring training, may not be ready for opening day and long term health is an issue”

 

“On my 2013 all bust team.”

 

“Wright is always a solid player who should hit above .300. He should hit 25+ HRs, he should get 100+ RBIs, and steal 20+ bases. Exactly what we envision Brett Lawrie to do one of these seasons. Draft him with those numbers to be expected.”

“Alvarez was finally a BEAST in 2013. After surprsingly falling off the Fantasy Baseball Radar after a bad 2012, we all voted for Pedro on the Waiver Wire as he ended up with 30 HRs. No reason to think he will not continue this success now that he has seen it.”

 

“wouldn't count on 30 HR again”
