Where can i find power, hrs and rbis, players on free agents that will explode this year (30+ hr, 100+rbi)?

Question

in in a 10 player head to head league and need some power batters that will be big this year with 30+ hr and 100+ rbi

Answer 1

well you will find zero of those players as free agents. But some players to watch for (omitting the obvious ones):

Joe Crede
Michael Cuddyer
Tori Hunter
Grady Sizemore (maybe not the rbi unless he gets switch to batting 3rd)
Craig Monroe
Prince Fielder
Brandon Inge
Josh Willingham
Magglio Ordonez
Austin Kearns (now that hes a intricate part of an offense)
Adrian Gonzalez
Brad Hawpe
Chris Duncan

Barry Bonds!

You can get Hawpe, Duncan, and Cuddyer very late in drafts and I would consider them near sure things.

Answer 2

Well in my 8 team league Barry Bonds was on the free agent list. I don't know if he is available in your league. I see Barry hitting 40 Home runs and about 110 RBIs because he played in limited time last year and hit 26 home runs and that was just 367 at bats. He could easily get the 40 HRs if he gets at least 500 at bats. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

I agree with Munkee. Finding a FA that hits 30/100 would be surprising regardless of draft format: auto, live, auction.

One guy I like in the late rounds is Ty Wiggington who a) is slated to bat cleanup b) is eligible at multiple positions (1b. 2b, of). He might only hit 15-20 HRs but with some burners in front of him the RBIs might be around 70 regardless of playing in a tough division.

How many other 2b are batting cleanup?

How many other 2bs

Answer 4

This is a toughie b/c you never know for sure who's going to have a break-out year. Last year, i found Matt Holliday about half-way through the season and he came up big for me. I think you're gonna have to wait untill the season is a third or half-way through the know who might meet your standards. One guy who I might think will deliver you your 30 HR and 100RBI is Ryan Shealy. -Just my opinion

Answer 5

Try searching for players on www.fantasywatchdog.com.
It's a search engine exclusively for fantasy sports. Enter search terms, positions, players, sleepers, etc.
Usually brings back some pretty good results.

Answer 6

a big sleeper that i already picked up is the prospect Alex Gordon (3B) on the Royals.

He was unbelievable in double AA baseball and is predicted to do very well and best off all, he is ranked 906 overall.

Johnny Gomes is a good sleeper too.

Answer 7

Depends on how deep your league. Really, those types of players shouldn't be out there.

Answer 8

look for
jonny gomes
chris duncan
adrian gonzalez
micheal cuddyer
adam laroche
jeff francouer
brad hawpe
khalil greene

hope i helped
goodluck and have fun!

Answer 9

i agree with monkee..... i always draft a guy like michael cuddyer. he usually goes pretty late and can play OF and 1B. i would draft guys like aubrey huff, francoer, duncan, teahen, markakis.
