JESUS MONTERO RUMORS
Fantasy Baseball – Coors Field And The Colorado Rockies
When drafting in a fantasy league it’s always important to look at park factors. Jesus Montero would have been a fantastic option had he qualified at catcher when he was with the New York Yankees. But the trade to the Seattle Mariners killed his value, as Safeco is one of the toughest parks for power hitting right handed batters. His opposite field power should help him out...

Law didn’t seem totally convinced that they should be ranked so high though, but he did say that he sees “star potential” in the...

Is Mason Williams the Next New York Yankees Trade Casualty?
The New York Yankees’ fan base was divided following the blockbuster deal headlined by the swap of RHP Michael Pineda and C/DH Jesus Montero. The bear hug embrace that we held the New York Yankees’ top prospect in was an awfully hard one to let go of. Understandably, there are still some fans a little bitter and/or disappointed by this move. Even though I am 25...

Montero or Lawrie?
Jeff Blair of the Toronto Globe and Mail had an interesting note in his column today, noting that there’s speculation in Toronto that the Mariners offered Michael Pineda to the Blue Jays in exchange for Brett Lawrie. They passed, and as we all know, the Mariners shipped Pineda to New York for Jesus Montero instead.
So, this brings up an interesting question – who is the...

Jesus Montero: 2012 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper
I can’t figure out why Jesus Montero is still getting drafted so low. Last week he was getting drafted 179th overall on Mock Draft Central. “Hey,” I said to myself, “that’s probably just because people haven’t figured out how to evaluate him in Seattle.” Now a week later that ADP has jumped just four slots to 175th. Montero should definitely go higher than this.

As the centerpiece of the deal that sent Michael Pineda, a power arm in his early 20s that has already been named to an All-Star team, Montero obviously has earned himself quite a reputation already. This trade is further evidence of the reevaluation that is taking place with regards to the relative...

For Jesus (Montero), No Room In The Inn
I arrived home from work last night to an explosion on my Twitter timeline. Everyone was tweeting about the big trade that went down, sending Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi to the Mariners for Michael Pineda and Jose Campo. Shocked and saddened, I expressed my feelings as best I could by tweeting: "Did the Yankees really just ruin my weekend?"I really felt that way, but then I got...
