Fantasy baseball player overview: Looking forward to Heyward

Perhaps it is cabin fever or just needing to get excited about something this spring, but have you checked out Atlanta Braves rookie outfielder Jason Heyward?
The dude is 6-foot-4, 220 pounds and can mutilate a baseball better than OreIda can mash a potato.
Not impressed? Check this out:

Fantasy outfield values you need to remember in 2010

Ryan Braun was pretty awesome last season, smacking more than 30 homers and setting a career high with 20 steals.
But if you don’t draft him in 2010, that isn’t a bad thing.

Third base fantasy baseball values you can’t afford to overlook

He’s not available in any of the leagues I play in. But, then again, we’re good fantasy players. We’re Ninjas.
I’m not sure where these leagues are, but I would have [...]

Why the contrary on Contreras? He is stealthy [FBB]

You have been unwilling to except my fantasy baseball advice about one Chicago White Sox starting pitcher for a couple posts now.
I’m not sure why. All he’s done is turn in a performance that was the seventh best in June. The fantasy league leaders reads: Tim Lincecum, Dan Haren, Jon Lester, Ricky Romero – who’s [...]
