My Revised Top 20 Non-Keeper Player Rankings

[kashikis]

pretty good overall but i would have a few people diff....

Higher: Soriano, Maggs

Lower: Bonds, Berkman, Nomar, Tejada

i think that Hudson should be at the bottom instead of one of those SS

and basically i think Maggs and Berkman should be switched but other than that lookin good IMO!

[lab_rats]

as defending champ in my league, i offer the following informed rankings:

1. Alex Rodriquez
2. Randy Johnson
3. Vladimir Guerrero
4. Sammy Sosa
5. Jason Giambi
6. Pedro Martinez
7. Curt Schilling
8. Alfonso Soriano
9. Manny Ramirez

Lab rat, even though i am a sox fan, for fantasy i would put schilling ahead of pedro and def helton ahead of manny. I'd also say berkman is too high especially since you put pujols, bonds, ordonez, and tejada. I'd also question ichiro ahead of bonds

[lab_rats]

i'm not so sure about schilling, given the way he finished off the year, whereas pedro had a strong year coming back from injury. berkamn had 80 RBI's in the first half last year and he's going to put up monster numbers...i think many people have underestimated the impact kent is going to have on that line-up. i've watched kent closely (i live in san francisco) and he, bagwell, and berkman are a ferocious 3-some for pitchers to contend with. similarily, i think bond's numbers are going to slip a bit, without kent, and with a completely new team, i'm unsure of bond's dedication and will to follow up his 2 seasons. how can he top the numbers he's put up the last 2 years going on 39? helton, manny...yhea, a 1st baseman with helton's numbers is extremely valuable, perhaps more than manny, but i like the number manny put up last year...33 HR, 107 RBI's, .349 average...but you're right, helton might explode this year.

[lab_rats]

some more info on helton:
1. bad back
2. no more juan pierre
3. walker might be traded
which all equals less runs, RBI's, and HR's without the protection in the lineup.

and that's lab RATS. please, get it straight.
