Who Should I Draft?

“Nealry 250 Ks. An ERA in the 3.00 Range. 20+ Wins. That is what you should get and expect from Verlander in 2013 who is always the best.”

“Tulowitzki is the best power hitting SS in the game by a long shot. If he stays healthy, he can hit 30+ HRs. He can also steal around 20 bases and hit over .300. Tulo does it all and comes into 2013 at 100% after a groin injury forced him to miss nearly all of 2012.”

“Most likely to be the first starting pitcher off the board, I expect some continued regression from Verlander. Win are the toughest statistic to project each season and he won?t repeat the 24-5 record in 2011, but 17-18 wins this season should be a solid projection. He is now 30 years old, but has some years left in the tank. I personally do not take a starting pitcher in the early rounds of fantasy baseball league drafts, but if you want an ace to anchor...”

“On my 2013 all bust team.”

“glad he chose not to participate in the WBC due to all the high intensity innings he has pitched last few years”

“Verlander, like Kershaw, has everything you could hope for.”

“We all have faith in Tulo's numbers. If only we had faith in his health. But even if he gets hurt for a month, Tulo's year plus a month of his replacement is probably better than any other SS will produce.”

“velocity on all pitches dropped last year; Fastball velocity has declined last 4 years”

“While you are reading this, Tulowitzki is plotting the next way he can land himself on the DL - Just avoid and save yourself the headache”

“Pitching equivalent of Miggy - elite production you can take to the bank”

“Ultimate dice roll - top 5 upside, well established health downside”

“The injury concern for Tulowitzki is legitimate, but so is his elite ability at the plate. This is a classic high-risk, high reward situation. ”
