The prize of the Brewers offseason will have to wait a few more weeks before taking the hill. Starter Zack Greinke suffered a fractured rib and will likely miss his first three starts of the season. To make matters worse, he suffered the injury whilst playing basketball. Fantasy wise: This is a bummer if you already had your draft since he would have likely been a high draft pick...

NL East Philadelphia Phillies Current closer-Brad Lidge Waiting in the wings-Ryan Madson FantasyCPR Confidence Level: 70% FantasyCPR Expert Analysis: Lidge probably had one of the worst seasons a closer ever had in 2009 and managed to rebound in 2010 dominating the second half of the season after getting off to a slow start. The Phillies have arguably the best rotation in all of...

The second base position is a tricky one for the 2011 season. On paper, the position looks to be about 1o deep, however, things get sketchy outside of the top 2. Robinson Cano and Chase Utley are the cream of the crop and should be taken without hesitation. Cano is a stud and is a legit first round pick. Utley is right up there with him. After them, things get dicey and a mix of...

Sleeper options: Matt LaPorta, Indians: I am in year three of my three year Matt LaPorta is going to be a superstar tour. LaPorta already posts decent walk and strikeout rate (10.12% & 19.29) which could lead him to big things in 2011 as we hope his power (12 HR’s in 2010) will return making him a decent sleeper option. Freddie Freeman, Braves: Freeman is the Braves top hitting...

The first base position is pretty top heavy and gets real lean after the first 6 or 7 are off the board. Pujols is the clear #1 and should be taken regardless. Joey Votto is ranked slightly ahead of Cabrera and Gonzalez based on his potential for double digit steals, having a .314 career batting average and being the reigning NL MVP does not hurt either. Proceed with caution regarding...

Here we go: 1. Joe Mauer, Twins Mauer is the no brainer #1 catcher off the board worthy of a pick within the first few rounds of the draft. Injuries and the massive Target field have basically killed any hope of him returning to his 2009 home run production. Mauer had a down year in 2010 (.327, 9 HR, 75 RBI)  but this could be attributed to injury,  the new field and the loss of...

To roto, or not to roto, that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to play in other fantasy leagues; The RBI’s and runs of outrageous fortune; Or to take Albert Pujols in the first round against a Sea of Hanley Ramirez’s, And by opposing end them: To WHIP, To ERA No triples; and by a stolen base to say we end; The regular season, and the thousand natural Kâ...

Christina Aguilera was so upset with the lyrics to our National Anthem that she decided to one up Francis Scott Key on the biggest stage of them all. The songstress belted out in a really delayed/over-singing fashion “What so proudly we watched at the twilight’s last gleaming,” replacing `hailed’ with `watched’ and boom, bam, pow, zip, zap…..new...

The folks over at EA Sports simulated the Super Bowl matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers and had the Steelers winning by 4 in a closely contested hard hitting game. A late turnover for QB Aaron Rodgers proved to be the difference as the Steelers brought home yet another simulated Super Bowl trophy to add to their collection. As for the real game, expect...

We at FantasyCPR.Com love nothing more than seeing a fat guy running with a football. Dan Connelly of the New England Patriots started the movement a few weeks ago setting an NFL record for lineman with his 71 yard kickoff return against the Green Bay Packers. Today’s installment involves Browns center Alex Mack and 40 yard TD scamper in the closing seconds of the 2011 Pro...

2011 is a new year and we are once again high on the Sean Rodriguez breakout potential this season in Tampa. Rodriguez set the world on fire last spring training hitting over .400 and belting 6 home runs. Then the regular season happened, Rodriguez could not find a spot in the regular playing rotation and he failed to put up decent numbers worthy of a fantasy play. Rodriguez showed...

A critical component to your fantasy success is having a dependable closer or at least one that will not destroy your numbers just to get a save. There are a number of teams heading into spring training hoping someone emerges as the team’s primary closer and a number of teams looking to move on at the first sign of trouble. Here is a team by team breakdown of the American League...

SI.com is reporting that the Tennessee Titans and head coach Jeff Fisher are parting ways after 16 seasons. Fisher, who had been the longest tenured coach, led the Titans/Oilers to a 142-120 overall record making the post season 6 times and guided the team to a SuperBowl in 1999. The move comes as a surprise as owner Bud Adams gave him an endorsement to coach next season just a...
