A Stroll Around The Fantasy Baseball Blogosphere
Posted by: Knox Bardeen in Fantasy BaseballLet’s take a stroll around the baseball blogosphere and see what interesting things I can find.
I was a big fan of Ryan Braun this spring, and still am for that matter. The blog, Warning Track Power, has been keeping up with Braun so far this season in the minors. Pretty soon we’ll all be keeping up with him as he’s playing in Milwaukee.
He tore up spring training (including ST numbers, he now has 10HRs in 69ABs this year), and everything about him–his power, plate discipline, and lack of K’s (7 in69ABs)–says he’s a major league hitter.
The Moonlight Gram has a heavily stats based post comparing Baseball Forecaster versus Baseball Prospectus.
PECOTA projections seem to be more conservative than Shandler for the top 250 players or so, and more aggressive for the rest. This would indicate that PECOTA is predicting that more overall production may come this year from players who go undrafted by the fantasy world.
Over at Fantasy Gameday, they have some good ideas for your week 3 fantasy roster.
Keep in mind that Boston and the entire NL have 7 games scheduled this week.

I like your weekly All-Star feature. Russell Martin is the real deal, fans already are saying Lo Duca who?
He is still learning the game however as he made a mistake on national tv, he should have run directly at the baserunner between first and second and forced him to commit. Surprised that neither of the guys in the booth, including Joe Morgan, picked up on this.
