Who Should I Draft?

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

“Out 8 weeks with a thumb injury.”

“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”

“20/20 return in '12; love his lineup surroundings (Kemp, A-Gon, Ethier)”

“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.”

“It's tough to look at Hanley's batting average over the last two years, knowing that he was once a top overall pick.”

“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.”

“Hanley was a new player for the Dodgers in 2012. When he went to LA all of his numbers doubled and turned his season to a modest 20/20. If he would have been a Dodger all of 2012 and stayed motivated like we know he was not in Miami. Hanley is easily back to the 30/30 player which made him a 1st round pick a couple years ago. Draft Hanley Ramirez in the 3rd round of any draft, there are not many who are as dynamic as he is, and the Dodgers are playing for a World Series in 2013.”

“On my 2013 all bust team.”

“Injured - Out 8 Weeks (Thumb) - If drafting, use at SS.”
