Video: Sleepers and Busts

Friday, March 08, 2013


Over the past week, Kay Adams (@heykayadams) and I (@djshort) have discussed hitters and pitchers. Today we're going to turn our focus to fantasy sleepers and busts. We'll also reveal our bold predictions for the 2013 season.

It was a lot of fun putting these videos together and we hope they will make a difference as you prepare for draft day, but you can get even more information and analysis in Rotoworld's new Fantasy Baseball Draft Guide. You'll find nearly 1,000 player profiles complete with outlooks and projections, cheat sheets, a constantly-updated top 250 for mixed, AL-only and NL-only leagues, ADP (average draft position) data, information on top prospects, and much, much more. It's the perfect way to give you an edge over your fellow owners. And if you don't have one already, you can sign up for a free fantasy baseball league with our partners at Yahoo! Sports.

Fantasy Sleepers

Cliff Lee and Kris Medlen were first and second respectively in strikeout-to-walk ratio among pitchers with at least 130 innings pitched last season. You might be surprised who was third, which is exactly why he's one of my favorite sleepers.

Fantasy Busts

Find out why I'm not all that high on a certain postseason hero for the Giants. I'm also skeptical about a pitcher who is making the move to the American League East.

Bold Predictions for 2013

OK, here's where we get to have a little fun. Kay and I put a lot of thought into each of these predictions, but I'll be happy to look back on these and laugh at some point. And I'm sure I can count on you guys to remind us about it.
