Pianowski’s Projections – Our (constantly updated) files will ensure you’re up-to-date on everything going on in the world of fantasy baseball on draft day. We’ll rank, project a multitude of stats, and assign dollar values for 575+ players. We’ll also designate players will upside, downside and players who are over and undervalued and more. These are produced on standard web pages and in excel files available for download and are the brainchild of veteran fantasy player Scott Pianowski. Pianowski’s projections are widely considered to be some of the best in the industry.

MLB Team Overviews – If you’re looking for a one-stop place to check on team position battles and the like this preseason, here’s a feature for you. In late-February, we’ll roll out an extensive look at all 30 MLB teams and will cover the team’s prospects for 2008, give lineup updates at all the key positions and cover position battles, and give you the skinny on each team’s rotation and closer situation. Then, when the exhibition season kicks off, we’ll constantly update this feature throughout March to give readers an easy reference point. Check out a 2008 sample here.
-
2007 Draft Plan – The foundation of our preseason football coverage is our extensive draft plan article. The (constantly updated) baseball version is similar, and it gives and overview of the talent at each position and the player’s average draft positions and how it affects your desirable plan of action on draft day. Also included is tons of insight on a wise plan of draft action and more. NOTE: This Draft Plan is not released until at least mid-March because it’s fruitless to offer it too early, before many key drafts take place.
