We'd like to welcome all of you to our Fantasy Freestylin' blog. We plan on providing some expert analysis to some of the important questions and concerns of fantasy sports.
Baseball season is just around the corner, and we have been diligently reading and watching to find out about baseball news for the fantasy athlete.
I'm going to start this post off with a valuable question in fantasy drafts. Lincecum or Santana?
Biases aside, Lincecum is hands down the #1 starting pitcher pick. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Santana will begin the season slightly dinged up (already dealing with an elbow issue), and he will not be as reliable the fantasy ace that he has been in years past. It is hard to predict what kind of stats "The Freak" will have coming off his CY Young season. My fearless prediction will be 16-4, 273 K's, 2.62 ERA, and a 1.12 WHIP.
I have seen Santana go higher than Lincecum consistently, and I would advise against it. Santana will have a top 5 season from a starting pitcher, but suffice to say, will play a second fiddle to Lincecum's season. The stars are aligned for another spectacular year from "The Freak".
Until next time,
Peace, Love, and Fantasy
