PLAYERS: Tim Lincecum
TEAMS: San Francisco Giants

Buster Posey Player Projection No 65

Via Fantasy Baseball 365  |  February 07, 2012
Key Stats: Let's get down to the brass tacks here. Posey is the Giants offense. He hit over .320 in four of his stops in the minors, with ISO's all around .200, except for a 7 game appearance in rookie ball when it was .308.
