“Alvarez was finally a BEAST in 2013. After surprsingly falling off the Fantasy Baseball Radar after a bad 2012, we all voted for Pedro on the Waiver Wire as he ended up with 30 HRs. No reason to think he will not continue this success now that he has seen it.”

“Plouffe the Magic Dragon is a player to target in all Fantasy Drafts. Never have I seen a player take over the MLB like Plouffe. In June he hit 7 HRs in 7 Days, and if he can do something similar to that for a whole season. Watch out. 24 HRs is what he hit as a late season call-up, 30+ is easily within reach for 2013.”

“wouldn't count on 30 HR again”

“power is legit, but he is a BA risk”
