When looking at prospects from a fantasy perspective, it is important to realize that a top prospects won't translate into fantasy output for the upcoming season. Many top prospects still have much seasoning to do in the minor leagues so we are listing prospects based on their anticipated impact on the 2013 fantasy baseball season.

Both experts agree that Dan Uggla is no longer a top power hitter and should be avoided come time for you draft. Michael says to avoid the veteran, Chase Utley, due to injury risks while Cody says to skip the once-promising Gordon Beckham for his lack of growth. Below are the Top 5 Second Basemen to Avoid heading into...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/dbQDujY_Wjo/020413225-preseason-top-5-second-basemen-to-avoid.phpMon, 04 Feb 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/020413225-preseason-top-5-second-basemen-to-avoid.phpAfter completing the top five or ten rankings at each position, the FantasyJuice experts present to you their top five first basemen to avoid heading into the 2013 season. Both Michael and Cody agree on avoiding power guys who bring little else to the table, like Adam Dunn. After an injury-plagued season, Michael believes Ryan Howard should be avoided due to injury concerns while Cody sees Howard's consistent decline continuing next season. Below are the Top 5 First...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/FispJkXapyI/013113224-preaseason-top-5-first-basemen-to-avoid.phpThu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/013113224-preaseason-top-5-first-basemen-to-avoid.phpMoving onto the final group for FantasyJuice's Top 5 or 10 at each position, the experts picked their top 5 Closers heading into Spring. After an amazing 2013, Craig Kimbrel easily takes the number one spot from both Michael and Cody. Aroldis Chapman is in the running for top closer but it appears the Cincinnati Reds plan to move them to the starting rotation for 2013. A fixture of top closers lists for the last decade, Mariano Rivera looks to bring his cutter back next...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/SFHTdSvShSE/012813223-preseason-top-5-closers.phpMon, 28 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/012813223-preseason-top-5-closers.phpThe FantasyJuice experts continue ranking their top 5 players at each position with their catcher selections. Fittingly, the NL MVP, Buster Posey, comes in as the top pick for both of our experts. A slight regression is expected but Posey is still a stud. The same four catchers round out the rankings for both Michael and Cody but they disagree on relative worth. Cody is buying Matt Wieters' growth and looks for it to continue while Michael isn't quite sure of his slow...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/LtGbjPjz1YY/012413222-preseason-top-5-catchers.phpThu, 24 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/012413222-preseason-top-5-catchers.phpContinuing the Top 5 or 10 players at each position heading into Spring, the writers at FantasyJuice rated their top 10 starting pitchers. The top four pitchers for both Michael and Cody are previous Cy Young winners, with both writers selecting Justin Verlander as their top pick. Cody likes what he sees from Madison Bumgarner heading into the new season, while Michael noted Gio Gonzalez's declining walk-rate as a reason for his top 10 spot. The Top 10 Starting Pitcher...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/Uu_WKvNanW0/012213221-preseason-top-10-starting-pitchers.phpTue, 22 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/012213221-preseason-top-10-starting-pitchers.phpContinuing our rankings of the top players at each position, the FantasyJuice writers have ranked the top 10 outfielders heading into Spring. The questions swirling around PEDs didn't damper Ryan Braun's season last year and both writers agree Braun could be as good, or better in 2013. Cody and Michael agree on the top 10 players but differ a bit in rankings. Most noticeable is Cody's ranking of Andrew McCutchen at #2 versus Michaels ranking of Mike Trout in the second...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/TmW9QEqCVv8/011713220-preseason-top-10-outfielders.phpThu, 17 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/011713220-preseason-top-10-outfielders.phpContinuing the Top 5 player rankings at each position, the writers at Fantasy Juice ranked their top shortstops heading into Spring Training. With injury-prone players filling up shortstop the shortstop field, Michael and Cody disagree on where to put their risk. Michael believes back-to-back healthy seasons from Jose Reyes is enough for a top ranking. With Troy Tulowitzki's participation in the World Baseball Classic on the horizon, Cody is willing to put his money on...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/oHe8nNVgy5U/011513219-preseason-top-5-shortstops.phpTue, 15 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/011513219-preseason-top-5-shortstops.phpContinuing the preseason top 5 rankings at each position, for third basemen, the no-brainer is obviously Miguel Cabrera. Michael and Cody both agree that Evan Longoria is worth the gamble as the second best 3B in fantasy baseball. Focusing on 20/20 potential, Cody favors overall players...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/b8TxMsqeCaI/011413218-preseason-top-5-third-basemen.phpMon, 14 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/011413218-preseason-top-5-third-basemen.phpAfter a disappointing finish to the 2012 season, the Los Angeles Angels made some big moves in the free agent market heading into the new season. Luring Josh Hamilton from the Texas Rangers obviously brings a power bat to the already potent core lineup. Hamilton should wedge between Albert Pujols and Mark Trumbo, creating a formidable one-two-three punch. Mike Trout had a rookie season for the ages and should be MLB's top table-setter in 2013. Some analysts have Trout hitting 30...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/oIh9Cqy1-D4/010913217-2013-projected-lineup-los-angeles-angels.phpWed, 09 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/010913217-2013-projected-lineup-los-angeles-angels.phpIn continuing to post the Top 5 at every position, the FantasyJuice experts submitted their 2B rankings heading into the spring. Michael and Cody agree on the top five second basement with only a slight variance between Aaron Hill and Brandon Phillips. Second base is stocked pretty well for 2013 so don't feel bad if you are unable to get any of the top 5 studs. Top 5 Second Basemen Michael Ryan Cody...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/DFoyfjuYWd8/010813216-preseason-top-5-second-basemen.phpTue, 08 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/010813216-preseason-top-5-second-basemen.phpHeading into Spring Training, the writers at FantasyJuice will rank the Top 5 at every position and Top 10 starting pitchers and outfielders. Kicking the posts off are the Top 5 first basemen heading into the Spring. Cody and Matthew agree on four of the top five players, with Cody choosing Joey Votto and Matthew selecting Prince Fielder at number one. Are your rankings different? Post below.

The Blue Jay lineup is significantly impacted by their offseason trade with the Miami Marlins. The addition of Jose Reyes at the top of the order should provide a much needed table-setter for Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion. Emilio Bonifacio finds his way from Miami as well and should bring his speed at the end of the lineup. Encarnacion looks to...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/TasCpytgNP4/010313214-2013-projected-lineup-toronto-blue-jays.phpThu, 03 Jan 2013 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/010313214-2013-projected-lineup-toronto-blue-jays.phpFantasyJuice's experts have independently ranked their top 25 shortstops heading into Spring of 2011. Hanley Ramirez still reigns supreme at the shortstop position after another solid performance in 2010. A surprising performance from Starlin Castro in limited playing time last season. Expect some sophomore struggles but the kid is legit. These rankings will be updated during the winter to reflect anticipated performance based on winter...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/9vfQDKdtEAI/031311213-pre-season-2011-shortstop-rankings.phpSun, 13 Mar 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/031311213-pre-season-2011-shortstop-rankings.phpFantasyJuice's experts have independently ranked their top 30 third basemen heading into Spring of 2011. Evan Longoria continued his path toward excellence with an impressive sophomore campaign in 2010. He takes over the top third-base spot coming into the new season. Kevin Youkilis sneaks back into the third base rankings with the addition of Adrian Gonzalez in Boston. As expected after a sub .200 hitting season, Mark Reynolds' value takes a huge dive heading into 2011....http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/ML7h7CyR0GE/030311212-pre-season-2011-third-base-rankings.phpThu, 03 Mar 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/030311212-pre-season-2011-third-base-rankings.phpWe start our Closer Depth Chart to reflect some changes leading up to the start of the 2011 season. Perhaps the biggest move of the season is the addition of Rafael Soriano to the Yankees bullpen. His value is diminished in leagues without holds. Heath Bell was on the trading block during the offseason but ended the offseason in San Deigo. The Red Sox made some bullpen moves during the offseason but still held onto Jonathan Papelbon. He could be moved during the season...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/P3LrJSquFnU/020211211-closer-or-poser-closer-depth-chart-2-2.phpWed, 02 Feb 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/020211211-closer-or-poser-closer-depth-chart-2-2.phpOwning Corey Hart is scary. There is a lot of debate about what Corey Hart will show up for 2011. I've seen some Corey Hart love, and I've seen a lot of Corey Hart hate. Most of it tends to err on the side of caution, or even "bust." I'm not going to go Forrest Gump on you and compare him to a box of chocolates, but he tends to be a bit of a fantasy enigma. In the past four years, Hart has had seasons where he has contributed in all five categories (2007), zero categories...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/c8m3C-I87Ek/020111210-legit-or-quit-what-to-make-of-corey-hart.phpTue, 01 Feb 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/020111210-legit-or-quit-what-to-make-of-corey-hart.phpFantasyJuice's experts have independently ranked their top 30 second basemen heading into Spring of 2011. Robinson Cano takes the top spot this year after an amazing 2010 season. He still has upside in batting average but don't he may be topping out in the power department. Chase Utley will look to rebound in 2011 but his age and injury history will plague the rest of his career from here on out. The wild card in 2011 could top-prospect Dustin Ackley. He has the tools...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/9DaL0HbXHac/013111209-pre-season-2011-second-base-rankings.phpMon, 31 Jan 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/013111209-pre-season-2011-second-base-rankings.phpLast season was the year of the impact rookie with Jason Heyward, Buster Posey, Mike Stanton, Starlin Castro, Austin Jackson and others staking their claim on big-league rosters. Many prospects are champing at the bit to break camp with their respective major league club. Domonic Brown takes the top nod as Philadelphia's toolsy outfielder while Desmond Jennings looks to make an immediate impact with his speed in Tampa. This season's list contains a few players who are...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/0kfsA2W9Wu0/012411208-top-hitting-prospects-2011.phpMon, 24 Jan 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/012411208-top-hitting-prospects-2011.phpFantasyJuice's experts have independently ranked their top 30 first basemen heading into Spring of 2011. 2010 was the year of the Votto for fantasy players as Joey Votto's rank skyrocketed after his MVP performance. Big names were moved due to trades and free agency this off-season. Adrian Gonzalez led the way with his move to Boston and his ranking reflects the anticipated return for fantasy owners. These rankings will be updated during the winter to reflect anticipated...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fantasyjuice/~3/M-r4qP8Hz84/010611207-pre-season-2011-first-base-rankings.phpThu, 06 Jan 2011 00:00:00 -0800http://www.fantasyjuice.com/blog/arc/010611207-pre-season-2011-first-base-rankings.php
