Today will be the first Fantasy 411 Live chat
Fantasy 411 Notes below
Oliver perez - for your draft day “cost” you will get excellent value, could have ERA in the low 3’s, decent whip, cuts down on walks they hope and coleus K’s. can give you 9K per 9in. if he can crack 200 innings, upside could be Bedard in 08. Walk year -Boris client
K rod loses Arbitration -K-Rod will make $10 million offered by the club after seeking $12.5 million
Monday, the unread e-mail of the day is back and will go on the Blog
J Bay - Siano is on the bandwagon
J Santana is in for a special kind of year, Cory hasn’t been able to build a projection system where he isn’t #1 and that’s based on 18 wins.
Tout prices based on last year:
F Rod = 24$
JJ Putz = 16$
J Nathan 26$
BJ Ryan 25$
Carmona 1$
R Sexson - sleeper, expect 240’s 250’s slight bump in power, won’t hit 48 homers, expect 25-30 homers. falling in mock drafts, Cory got in 23rd round in a 15 team draft.
smoltz - keeps getting it done
shields - risk or regressing, better team around him, 5 or 6 to one K to walk, better bullpen
B Myers - will adjust nicely back to the rotation, big K numbers
F Carmona - can’t argue with the results but the low K brings him back to earth
C Young can he stay healthy?
B sheets - can he make enough starts?
Top 11 AL players - A Rod, M Cabrera,C Crawford, G Sizemore, D Ortiz, Maggs, Vlad, Ichiro, Papelbon, Putz, BJ Upton, Morneau according to MLB.com
Cory says B Roberts goes before Morneau, alex rios and c granderson, markakis and vmart, jeter.
Quick hits for those who missed the chat:
* Braun is a legit first-round bat but he may be falling since he’s only had less than one full season and people want certainty with that first pick. I don’t mind that but I’d grab him in the 12-15 range;
* Iwamura has very little power or speed, and plays in a good but not great lineup… he’s a nice late round pickup but not what I would call a target guy;
* I think Pena is a safe pick for 30-35 homers again but expecting 46 again is probably not realistic… stick to Prince or Howard for that!
* Jurrjens could make 20+ starts this year due to the uncertainty of the Braves rotation this year, so at $4 he’s a decent gamble. CS
