Fantasy Baseball drafts are starting across the country and you probably have one very soon. Here are a few quick tips for draft day(and before):
1. Do some research and look at projections at least a day or two before your draft.
2. Research key injuries that happened in the off-season or so far in Spring Training(Chris Sale, Yu Darvish, Cliff Lee, Zach Wheeler, etc.) and players coming off injury(Matt Harvey, Jose Fernandez, Garrett Richards, etc.). Don’t be the guy that drafts the player who is out for the year in the 4th round.
3. Show up to your draft. If at all possible show up and actually draft your team. Auto-pick isn’t a good way to win a Fantasy Baseball Championship. You could end up with the highly ranked players who are hurt or that are past their prime. If you can’t make your draft, pre-rank your players and move all injured players to the “Do not draft” list.
4. Good Luck! If you think you have a bad draft or don’t like your squad, you can always trade guys and add free agents.
