Will Evan Longoria Make the Rays This Spring
March 19, 2008
Evan Longoria has done nothing not to make the team out of spring training. The Rays are going to be much improved but still lack the power to compete in the AL East. So will they keep him?
I have followed the Rays for years and they always seem to find a way not to keep their prospects out of spring training, but lets look at some stats .333 3 HR’s 9 RBI . His glove is said to be an issue. Who the heck cares. This guy could be another Ryan Braun type of player.
Evan Longoria has hot at every level since he was chills including every professional stop on his way to Spring Training 2008. My advice is to grab him and wait for the Rays. If he spends a month in Durham , stash him away on your bench and you will have power all summer. Evan Longoria could hit 30 plus home runs. Evan Longoria looks to be the real deal.
Jose Reyes or Hanley Ramirez, Who’s Better
March 17, 2008
At the beginning of last year there was debate among my fellow league members about who was a better Fantasy Baseball Player. I traded Derek Jeter and someone else I can’t recall to a Yankees lover and its turned out to be on e of the best trades I have ever been involved in. Here are some quick facts on Hanley Ramirez. In 154 games Ramirez batted .332 with 29 home runs, 81 RBI, 125 runs and 51 steals. He fell one home run shy to become only the third player in baseball history to hit 30 or more home runs and steal 50 or more bases in the same season. Very hard to argue with those numbers don’t you think?
Jose Reyes on the other hand didn’t disappoint either. Although not blessed with the power Ramirez displayed Reyes stole 78 bases scored 119 runs while hitting .280. He added 12 homers. It a classic speed or power debate, Ill take Ramirez , but what say you? Reyes is getting a reputation for being a slacker. I hate that. Its your turn to chime in.
Fantasy Baseball News, Is A-Rod the Best ?
February 15, 2008
You don’t have to like him, but if you a fantasy baseball team owner A-Rod is a must have player. All he did was lead the major leagues in home runs, RBI, runs, slugging percentage, and OPS. As a bonus he has not been connected with the steroids scandal, at least not yet. Participate in 100 drafts and he will be the first player chosen 95 times, or he should be. The other 5 picks would come from the idiots who choose pitchers with the first picks.
What if you don’t have him?
So what if you don’t have him or a chance to get him. You do whatever you have to do to make him part of your team thats what. He is that good.
