Are you ready to prove the adage that #WinnersWin in 2022? To help you accomplish those lofty goals this season, we’ve set about constructing the one, and only, source you will need. What do you get with your purchase of the 2022 Product?
We will look back on the completed 2021 season. What did we learn? What did get right and wrong? Did the 2021 MLB season leads us to conclusions as to how to better evaluate players, and more directly, lead us to better ways to play the game of fantasy baseball?
You will granted access to the rankings, and as you can see below, we’ve have rankings for a ton of different setups this season. These rankings will continually be updated during the preseason, and once the season begins the rankings will be updated the first of every month (May 1st, June 1st, July 1st, August 1st & September 1st).
You will be able to review all of our thoughts on the crop of rookies that might be able to help you in 2022, from rankings to Scouting Reports on each youngster.
We will introduce you to SMASH – and why it might be the best fantasy tool out there to evaluate player performance.
We will have short writeups on the top-25 men at each position, you know, the 2-3 line stuff that you get in magazines. We will augment these reports with the award-winning Player Profiles Series that can be upwards of 2,000 words on a single player.
Which players should you target? Which should you avoid? What are the keys to focus on when trying to decide which category a guy falls into? We will take you step-by-step through the process.
Which analytics are truly helpful, and how does what we learn that help you in the fantasy game?
You will be given access to our Discord chatrooms. Ask a question and you will get an in-depth response. Have a follow up question? Ask away, and one of our staff will guide you to the answer you seek.
