Miguel Cabrera 2011 Fantasy Preview

After his most complete season in the majors, Miguel Cabrera finds himself in the discussion for the top pick in fantasy drafts for 2011.

Keeper Rankings-2011 Season

Filed under: Fantasy Baseball,Keeper Fantasy Baseball,Keeper Rankings,Rankings — bruceknutson @ 8:08 pm

Over the next couple of weeks, I will cover my top 200 keepers in fantasy baseball. I assess my keeper value based on what I expect from a player over the next three seasons (60% for next year, 30% for 2012 and 10% for 2013). I have also provided each players age in parenthesis.  These rankings are based on value for your standard 5×5 stats (runs, hrs, rbi, avg, sb, wins, k’s, era, whip and saves).

Once again, Albert Pujols leads the way in my 2011 rankings for first basemen and all keeper players. How much longer should fantasy owners expect Albert to be the king of baseball and what type of numbers should his owners expect from him in the upcoming season?
