There are three basic strategies in drafting closers. Each has its own rewards, but also its own opportunity cost; you pass up hitters and starters. Want to know what you are missing when you draft closers at various points in the draft? This week Anthony Catanzaro looks at top-shelving, bottom-feeding and middle-feeding and what you are mssing at each stage.
Every week on the Premium Site we have a weekly rundown of the key transactions for the week. Here is the latest from Brian Joura. We offer a lot more content on our Premium Site, including rankings updated every week (and two or three times per week in March), the most accurate projections in the industry from Mike "42-0" Podhorzer, Lenny's Daily Podcasts (exclusive to our Premium Subscribers) and last, and maybe least, articles from yours truly on Strategy, Gaming and Big Picture issues in Fantasy Baseball.
From Mike Podhorzer, we have an article analyzing the predictive value of HitTracker's classification of home runs. It is just another example of the great articles and research we have on the Premium Site, so if you like the article, sign up!
On our premium site we offer content that is more advanced, in terms of content and analysis, than what we have on the free site. Premium subscribers get our exclusive 1-800 number, plus instant access via email, our updated rankings and Mike Podhorzer's projections that went 42-0 heads up against every other system out there, including PECOTA, Chone, ZiPS and everyone else. And, you get articles from Mike, myself and some of the best writers and analysts around. Oh, and Lenny's daily podcast! Lenny's daily podcast is worth the price of admission by itself. Here is an example of the type of content you get on the Premium Site, so we hope you will consider signing up.
We started FantasyPros911.com with little expectation of the immediate success we would have. The site was the brainchild of Paul Greco, who wanted to offer something no one else in the industry offered, the best customer service and the development of a community. From this seed was sown the almost immediate and overwhelming response we have had.
This feeling of community is what drives the site. Nowhere is this better exemplified by The Godfather of Fantasy Baseball, Lenny Melnick. Lenny was voted the Favorite Fantasy Sports Expert at Advanced Fantasy Baseball, after less than one year into the site’s existence. This is no surprise, as Lenny is easily the most accessible and friendly guy in the industry, and has scores of faithful followers.
Lenny has the best daily podcast in Fantasy Baseball, which is provided to our Premium Subscribers. Considering that only our Premium Subscribers get his podcast and he still won that vote against guys whose stuff is available for free, we think that it says a lot about Lenny’s expertise. Like Yogi Berra, Lenny may be prone to a funny malaprop here and there, but his expertise is some of the best around.
Lenny talks you through teams, players, news and notes. ROTO BEFORE THE INTERNET + MUCH MORE RECORDED FEB 2 08
