“In 1st full season, top 5 among 2Bs in SB (31), Runs (86), RBIs (76)”

 

“If Kipnis can continue to progress, he could be a first rounder some day. He's a great pick in keeper leagues.”

“If you're drafting Mauer, make sure you get your power elsewhere. He can supplement a moderate AVG team, though.”

“Kipnis is a player that should be a 20 HR/30 SB player as early as 2013. If we needed to find a version of Brian Roberts back in his prime, Jason Kipnis is that man. Jason can rake the ball and soon all those doubles will turn into bombs. We should see Kipnis do damage once again with an even better Indians squad this season.”

“Joe is one of those catchers who will get you a great RBI total, along with an award winning batting average. Not to mention nearly 100 Runs. While also throwing in some low double digit HR totals to go with double digit steals. He will make you happy as a fantasy owner.”

“He followed up an amazing first half with lots of ugly in the second. A nice balance of power and speed but inconsistency of 2012 a concern. ”

 
 

“bounced back some in 2012 see more then 10 HR this year & a .300 avg (from a catcher is great) ”

 

“On my all bust team for 2013. Read more at http://www.FantasySportsEmpires.com ”
