Full Story »RotoBaller.com Rankings: 2013 Starting Pitcher Rankings with ADP Comparison
Starting pitchers are my favorite position in fantasy baseball. They give you a ton of draft flexibility, and help you win your leagues. If you can pick the right guys in the later rounds, then your early rounds can be used to stock up on hitting. Let’s put it this way... fantasy SPs are like […]
