“Bust - Spencer Firth”

 

“Had 162-game pace of .289/37/120 in '12, and now in prime time (27)”

“Explosive TOR offense nice, but Rogers Centre turf not ideal for health”

“Longoria should give you a .280-.290 AVG with 30+ HR, 90 R, and 100 RBI. He also walks a ton, and at 27, he's at the ideal point in his career.”

“Reyes is the classic high-speed, low-power shortstop that we all grew up watching. I'd expect him to break the 100 Runs mark again, now that he's in Toronto.”

“has missed almost 130 games combined the last two seasons”

 

“With 17 homers and 55 runs batted in over 74 games in 2012, Longoria appears poised to put up the best numbers in his career at age 27 in 2013. ”

“The move to Toronto, and playing for a contender, should do wonders for his fantasy value, with a nice bump in HR, runs and the usual pile of stolen bases. The idea that Reyes is a major injury risk is greatly exaggerated. ”

“Longoria was on his way to potentially being the 2012 MVP before having his season cut short to 79 games. He played a majority of those games to close out the year, including a season finale where he hit 3 HRs against the Orioles. Evan is ready to hit 40+ bombs in a season, it could come any year and you would be crazy to let someone else get the chance to have it.”

“Reyes could score over 110 runs, while stealing over 40 bases, and knocking out 10 HRs. Doing all this while hitting over .300. If you let Reyes slip because of his bad season in Miami where he still managed to hit 10+ HRs and steal 40 bases. You are giving away one of the most prized players in Fantasy Baseball.”

“Don't pull a hamstring reading this note; Longo gets the tag of injury prone. But is it fair? Question: Are you injury prone when you just get unlucky for 2 straight years and get a freak injury? Or do you become injury prone when said injury is a hamstring, which always has future ramifications for creeping up again. - Fantasy Football owners should remember this first-hand.”

“Reyes is my #1 Shortstop and he should be your #1 shortstop. Turf Schmurf, he's a stud, in a studly lineup. Target him”

 

“On my 2013 all bust team.”
