Fantasy Bust: DickersonIt appears that Corey Dickerson and Drew Stubbs will be in a platoon to start the season, as of right now at least. If this is so, then I will be waiting on Dickerson in all my drafts. Of the two I like Stubbs better, but I will get to that in a little while.Dickerson’s scouting reports have never been all that exciting to read. He doesn’t offer much speed or power and is not likely to be more that a utility outfielder with a weak arm.
Prospect Watch: Jonathan GrayGray has the stuff that people go nuts over, a fastball that is consistently in the mid-90′s and can touch 101. He also has a slider that has Keith Law’s knees buckling in his sleep. With as weak as the Rockies pitching is, I would expect Jonathan Gray to be up at some point this year, even though he may start in AA. However most think that Eddie Butler will be up first, even though he too will start in AA as of now. Either way, both of these kids are worth a look.
Fantasy Sleeper: Drew StubbsStubbs is like a power man’s Dexter Fowler. He has shown some dynamic power and speed production throughout his career and perhaps Coors field will agree with him and he can earn himself an everyday spot in the Rockies lineup. I might be willing to take a chance on Drew Stubbs in the last round of a draft, but most likely will just keep an eye on him as a free agent.
Final ThoughtsAll in all I think the Rockies are a good source of fantasy options. Unfortunately most of those options come with some question marks. we have everything here, small sample size, platoons, and injury risks. The thing is that if these guys are falling in drafts because of question marks, it makes them all the more attractive as fantasy options. So be on the ready to scoop these guys up.Further ReadingWho’d You Rather: Troy Tulowitzki or Hanley Ramirez?Fantasy Baseball Catcher Profiles: Wilin Rosario
