AFL Preview: Surprise Saguaros

Written by Josh Shepardson on .

The Arizona Fall League kicked off today, and while I'm a little late with submitting this “preview,” the Saguaros deserve their moment in the sun. Of all the rosters I've reviewed, this one appears to have the least star potential. They do have a trio of interesting prospects that stand out, though.

AFL Preview: Salt River Rafters

Written by Josh Shepardson on .

After reading about Mesa, Phoenix, Scottsdale and Peoria, you probably think you've got these previews figured out. Not so fast. Salt River provided me with a dilemma, and because I'm making the rules up to these previews as I go, I responded by offering you, the readers, a twist.

AFL Preview: Peoria Javelinas

Written by Josh Shepardson on .

Half the teams in the Arizona Fall League have been highlighted, and next up on the preview list is the Peoria Javelinas. The Javelinas roster includes a southpaw that strikes out batters at a high rate, the most exciting player in the AFL, and a candidate for best professional debut from the 2012 MLB Amateur Draft class. no comments

Looking Back at Standings and Projections

Written by Matthew McMillen on .

And so closes another fantasy baseball season. Some of you hoisted championship trophies. More of you did not. Depending on the group you fall into, I offer congratulations or a thank you for playing.

This was a significant season for me, for a number of different reasons.
  1. I hoisted the Championship in my NL only league
  2. I finished 3rd in the Blog Wars league hosted by the RotoExperts, my first “expert” league.
  3. I committed the fantasy baseball blunder of the century.
Just as important as looking back on the performance of my fake teams is going to be looking back on the projections and rankings made before the season started. I want to know how I did there. So during the playoffs, I’m going to go back and look at what projections I made and then compare them to the numbers at seasons end. We’ll see where I had hits and misses and then count a final score. For the record, I’m anticipating a lot of misses. For fun, we’ll keep a tally like win-loss-tie. I’ll try to be as far as possible. If you disagree, let me know.

So, the first 5 players I projected…
