“Putz is the Diamondback closer, but the D'Backs would not see it as the end of the world if they had to switch to Hernandez because Putz was not getting the job done. Every season it seems Putz is on the verge of going down just a little bit more. What makes Putz a good Fantasy Pitcher is that he cares about Fantasy Baseball, and is very aware of his status.”

“One of the last potential HR hitters that could beat Barry Bonds 73, Giancarlo is a lock for 45+ HRs as he is one of the most exciting power hitters in the games today.”

 

“Bust - Spencer Firth”

 

“Will teams give him enough pitches to hit?”

 

“After changing his first name from Mike, he put up almost identical numbers in 2012, but saw nearly a 30-point jump in average. Even if his balky knee slows him down, he?ll threaten the 40-homer mark once again.”

 

“Tied w/ Bautista as Vegas' early odds on fave to win HR title”

Or will he try to slack off to force his way out of Miami? Actually.. isn't there irony that the easiest way Giancarlo could force his way out of Miami is actually by having said monster season? Little clarity causes Stanton to slip in my opinion. Obviously Top 5 upside, but significant risk factors in counting stats and stolen bases should te...”

 

“As talented as Stanton is I will be avoiding him in drafts due to his poor supporting class, which may limiit his all around production compared to those I have ranked ahead of him.”
