2011: Outfielders (Part 2)

Since yesterday was a outfielder overview day, today is the day that I will specifically talk about the fantasy aspect of the sport. The top ten fantasy outfielders are: Ryan Braun, Carlos Gonzalez, Carl Crawford, Josh Hamilton, Matt Holliday, Matt Kemp, Nelson Cruz, Justin Upton, Shin-Soo Choo, and Hunter Pence. With these outfielders you get the best, no doubt about that. But don't overlook the others in the game, just because they are not in the top ten. Keep Ichiro in mind because he always produces consistent hits and stolen bases, but you do not get the long ball from Ichiro. Jayson Werth's ranking really dropped this year after signing with the Nationals and losing the Phillies offense infront of and behind him. Second year ballplayer Jason Heyward is looking to continue what he had in his rookie season, but without the injuries. He has been stated saying he hasn't fully regained his flexibility, but that may change after Spring Training. And I'm saying rom personal experience, what happened to Jason Bay? I mean he gets into a Mets uniform and he immediately tanks. Shane Victorino is an outfielder not to forget because this will be his breakout year. I guarantee it. And in my opinion, Andrew McCutcheon is in the same position, all in speculation, but the two have proved themselves before and the two gain national attention with their offensive and defensive numbers. And if all else fails, go for Coco Crisp is always a funny pick to choose. Just for the name's sake. Good luck to all fantasy players in the 2011 season!
