JACOBY ELLSBURY RUMORS
Jacoby Ellsbury, 2012 Fantasy Outlook
It’s quite possible that Jacoby Ellsbury can provide more first round value than most any other player selected, especially if he goes late in the first.
I have been a huge Ellsbury supporter for some time, ranking him seventh before his disastrous 2010 campaign. I truly believed Ellsbury had elite talent and could improve upon his power. Of course, 2010 was a complete waste.

What should the Red Sox do with Jacoby Ellsbury?
Jacoby Ellsbury was the best part of the Red Sox' 2011 season. He was consistently excellent -- an MVP candidate who combined his known speed with some surprising power to be one of the most dynamic players in baseball.
And while that's all well and good, we have to wonder -- with his free agency just two years away and a very lucrative contract awaiting him, what's...

Report: Tigers, Red Sox Nearly Swapped Curtis Granderson for Jacoby Ellsbury in 2009
During the past two years in pinstripes, Curtis Granderson has victimized the Red Sox, belting seven homers and 16 RBIs against the AL East foes. Turns out, the Yankees outfielder was nearly on Boston’s side of the rivalry. The Wall Street Journal reported the Detroit Tigers had inquired about Jacoby Ellsbury and Clay Buchholz in 2009 in exchange for Granderson. Then-Red Sox general...

Using Average Home Run Distance to Project Home Run Totals
Yesterday I wrote a post concerning Jacoby Ellsbury‘s sudden power surge last season. In that post I concluded Ellsbury would see his home run total decline in 2012 (shocking!) but I found some interesting connections between a player’s HR/FB rate, his average home run distance and his average ball speed off the bat. As it turns out, when a player’s HR/FB rate is disproportionately...

#56: How many home runs will Ellsbury hit?
One of the most important questions entering 2012 fantasy drafts surrounds a speedy Najavo who’s set up camp in Boston’s outfield. If Jacoby Ellsbury can come close to matching his 2011 power output he’s a no-brainer first round draft pick. Heck, if he can hit 30 more homers while maintaining that .300-plus average and elite run and stolen base totals you’d have to take him...

Problem child doesn't have an issue with Ellsbury
We all remember when Youk called Jacoby Ellsbury out for not being with the team during his rehab last season, or at the team's facility in Ft. Myers. So we all assumed Youk had a problem with Jacoby, since he called him out publicly and all. We most recently found out Youk has been an absolute delight in the clubhouse, so of course he doesn't have a problem with Ellsbury or anyone...
