The Texas Rangers, Manager Needs to pick a center fielder already

I think it’s high time RW quit bull-cooking around with his two center fielders regarding his vague, fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants approach to playing time for Craig Gentry and Leonys Martin. It’s high time Washington made up his mind as to which of his two outfielders brings more to the table talent and effort wise and simply give THAT player the bulk of the starts in center...

Rangers get glimpse of Martin's potential

Martin, who batted ninth and started in center, got the nod over Craig Gentry. Texas manager Ron Washington said the left-handed hitting Martin got the start because Houston started right-hander Bud Norris. But Washington said that...

Deep League OF Targets: Mastroianni, Carter, Martin

I purposely avoided the term “sleeper” in the title of this post because I’m not sure that word really applies in deep leagues. Whether you’re in an AL- or NL-only league, a 16-team mixed league, or a league that just uses a ton of starting positions, you have to know more players than the average fantasy manager. I prefer the term “target” because it’s a much more...

Top 60 Outfielders for 2013 Fantasy Baseball

The top 60 outfielders for 2013 fantasy baseball become a sloppy mess towards the end. I almost went with guys like Leonys Martin over, say, Angel Pagan, but that's upside for upside's sake over a known entity. Guys near the top of the 80 outfielder post, which will be up next, like Adam Eaton and Leonys Martin are great, but I can't rank them above guys who have shown...

Leonys Martin, 2013 Fantasy Outlook

Leonys Martin said this recently in an interview, “I’m gonna be 25 years old in March.   In Triple-A last year, I hit 12 homers, stole 10 bases and hit for a .359 average in 231 at-bats while rocking a .422 OBP.  My mother, Martina, always said, ‘Leonys, modesty isn’t the best policy, it’s the only policy, except for my policy regarding our dining room which is no shoes...
