Fill In my Picks

[The Artful Dodger]

Jones has a career .316 oba, and has a bad W/K ratio. I don't see him as a .300 hitter. McCutchen has a better W/K ratio, runs much more. Jones might hit a few more hrs.

Jones also had an unsustainable HR/FB early in 2009 and in fact, it ended up looking too good because of that first half surge. As long as Jones continues to keep yielding a really high GB rate, he has 20 HR potential at best.

Anyhow, I believe you're set with your offense. Go for the win this year with Cliff Lee, Gallardo, and Kershaw in that order. If not, I think Ethier and Hamilton are the way to go.

heyward too early at 101?

[HOOTIE]

BB/K isn't too important for fantasy (Justin Upton and Matt Kemp had a low ratio last year), and career numbers are overrated for a growing player. McCutchen might run more, but speed is cheap and Jones gets him in the other 4 cats. He's got more raw power in a much better lineup.

I think runs are a push, as AM better oba gets him more chances. Why does AJ get the edge in BA?
AJ xBA last 2 years .243 .280
He might have more raw power, but hitting a lot of GB does negate that some.
