Thanks for the article… I needed a reminded to snatch up Hanson, and doing it today was great payback to the guy in my league who scooped Beimel from under my Hanrahan-owning nose, since I know he wanted TH…

Hanson doesn’t seem to be more then a #3 pitcher in the majors> Seems ranked high here. Guys like Fowler ,Alonso,Lawrie,Alvarez and Carlos Santana seem very low.They are producing now and are quick movers. Tim Bechkam as well.Triunfel has to be moved down again at this point.

Missing altogether Jaff Decker OF SD, Peter Bourjos OF LAA. Ryan Strieby 1B Det has to be on a watch list.

Where is Greg Halman?  Potential 30/30 guy.

Carlos Santana is top 10, if not top 5. His average year would be .300/25/100, which at catcher is a top 2 round pick every year. His offensive potential is not Weiters, but is close.

Gamel’s lines remind me of Garrett Atkins, who is not a top fantasy player, I don’t see how he’s so high, especially since he can’t play major league defense.

Kyle Blanks can’t hit for power, he just doesn’t have a HR swing. Conor Jackson at best, he should be closer to 50.

Desmond Jennings at 58? He has power, crazy speed, hits for average, takes walks, he is just 22 and dominating AA. He is Carl Crawford, but better.

Brett Wallace is every bit as good of a hitter as Gamel, and has a better defensive profile at 3rd, yet is 40 spots lower.

Also you are overreacting to a good start by Rondon. He doesn’t have crazy K’s potential and profiles as a 3 starter at beset.
