[Michael Brown]

Burrell - second half last year proved legitimacy

Bay - could be anywhere from 2-5, but he typically heats up right around now

Victorino - ample steals give him the edge over damon

Damon - off to a solid start, and has a track record

McClouth - obviously not a fluke at this point, but won't keep up this pace

Schumaker - playing time crunch could be an issue at times, and he doesn't do one thing extremely well

DeJesus - marginal in most categories, and has been banged-up

Bradley - one of the most overrated players in fantasy baseball history

 

[Spartans Rule]

Burrell - Great power in a great lineup

Bay - Should have a year similar to 06

McLouth - Could be #1 if he starts running again as the power levels off

Damon - Will end up with better power #s than most people think. Needs his teammates healthy though.

Bradley - Injury risk of course, but great OPS. And he bats cleanup. Monster year coming if he stays healthy.

Victorino - Steals are nice but he can't hit for power, can't steal first and could lose PT.

Schumaker - Not big on leadoff men who don't run. Really only good in two cats.

DeJesus - Very boring fantasy player

[MAC_32]

McClouth - avg will level off, but still could hit 30/30

Burrell - as most power hitters are will remain inconsistent but it's looking like the contract year is the motivation he needed, should hit 30+ with a below avg BA

---

Bay - his stock will go up when he gets traded before the deadline, he'll see more pitches in a better lineup - buy low in June

Victorino - will steal the most (40?), but power may be limited to 10-12 bombs

Bradley - may be the best producer of all of them if he played a full season but he won't

DeJesus - better than advertised, should score 70 runs while have double digit steals and bombs with a good avg - great platoon option as you always start him against righties but keep him on the pine against lefties

Damon - inconsistent headache, should go 20/20 with a won't kill you avg but the migraine's not worth it

---

Schumaker - BABIP benefactor so far, when that regresses to the mean he'll lose PT to the eventually brought up Colby Rasmus, question being "when"

Roto or H2H, redraft or keeper?

 

[PIK95]

Schumaker - playing time crunch could be an issue at times, and he doesn't do one thing extremely well

He plays crazy D and that will keep him in the lineup.

Schumaker - playing time crunch could be an issue at times, and he doesn't do one thing extremely well

He plays crazy D and that will keep him in the lineup.

When Colby comes up Shumaker will lose some time. When that happens Duncan, Ankiel, and Colby will be the primary lineup against righties, Shumaker will be a late inning defensive replacement for Duncan and Colby.

So when will that be -- right around the time Colby stops hitting .210 in AAA I guess?

He's been a slow starter in the past too. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if a month from now Colby's avg is higher than Shumaker's, or at least close to it. I don't know if he'll be up before the All Star Break, but it wouldn't surprise me if he was.

Kid definitely has talent, but with the Cardinals doing well with the rotation of Schumaker/Ludwick/Barton they've got out there now I don't see a huge need to call him up. Could be wrong, but I'd think one of two things needs to happen. A) Rasmus eats up AAA pitching a la Jay Bruce and forces the call-up. B) The Cards start to suck and fall out by 10-15 games. The first one is far more likely, but still far from happening in my opinion.
