So, anyone know the best draft prep sites or whatnot? I'm gonna need to do some homework. Only thing I really have down so far is don't draft any white sox players

I believe you can add the Brewers to that, with maybe the exception of Braun.

Try Google

It would be a pretty sad indictment of this board if nobody has anything more specific. I'm likely to find 10 million hits by googling it.

Ok ill give you a little bit of advice. Depending on the league you're in you have to adjust accordingly. We had a league where you would adjust your rosters daily. I tried to have at least one if not two guys that played multiple postions so you could plug and play them in any spot if one of your guys was going to be missing a day. Funny enough I used Ben Zobrist that year when he was eligible for 3 to 4 postions.

I would say go to a site like ESPN or Yahoo and know your league settings and scoring system way in advance of the draft.

Rotoworld should be good too. Although I dont think I've ever used them for baseball.

Uhhh pretty much just read about upcoming prospects wherever you can, do your due diligence seeing who's in Yahoo's system, and just stay abreast of baseball happenings throughout spring training. You shouldn't need to go pay $$$ to have some "fantasy expert" rank all the 3B 1-20 so you can go off of that.

Plus if you're in a yahoo league you can look up all players then limit it to 3B and last year's stats, and compile that juxtaposed against common sense and you'll be all good.

Mainly, you just wanna watch lots of baseball and keep up with every box score during the season. No amount of prep / shortcuts make up for "consuming the game" like that.

Parkins set the O/U at 34.5, and Spiegel immediately wanted the over. I would pound the under. I can't see him playing more than 140 games, and he will be pulled for a defensive replacement late in games.

Go to yahoo, and read up on what Andy Behrens has to say. He is by far the best of their "experts".

I'm making a legendary comeback in my fantasy baseball league. Started the year decimated by injuries and found myself in the cellar and out of it. I've now WON 9 out of my last 10 matchups, and I finish the regular season playing the 3 worst teams in the league. I'm only 6 games out of the final playoff spot, but this looks like a done deal for me. I just finished the last 3 weeks beating the top 3 games easily. Playoffs here I come.
