Fantasy Baseball News, Draft Names or Stats ?

March 27, 2008

Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Carl Crawford Roy Halladay, Ryan Howard. All name we know. All names we draft on draft day. I have a question, who the heck cares about names when we are in a stats league? Your Fantasy Baseball team should be filled with players who put up stats. It should not be all your favorites. It really is that simple. I played in a league with a guy for years, who wanted every known Yankee on his team , not because they were the best players available, but because they were Yankees. Folks that is not smart. If you are in a money league with a guy like this take his damn money and teach him a lesson.

When ever you need a player or want to draft a player, check his number. Is he producing? If not leave him where he is. If you are going to be successful in any league, and by that I mean wining your league, you will have to find guys on the waiver wire that nobody wanted. I picked up Ryan Braun last year who was on waivers. He turned out to be a good pick up right? Those kind of guys are there every year. Have any if you ever picked up a throw away that turned into a keeper. Tell me all about it in a comment!
