30 Teams in 30 Days: San Diego Padres

(by André Walker)

So as I was looking over the list of 30 Teams in 30 Days articles, I noticed that nobody had written about the Padres. I volunteered for the job, not realizing what I was getting myself into. Looking over the roster and depth chart, I thought to myself, “I have to write about who to target from a team that’s unironically starting David Eckstein?!” But a closer look exposed something that most don’t realize is there: late-round upside from guys that hit at Petco Park.

Players to Watch

(by Tony Huang)

Since the majority of fantasy users use Yahoo! Sports to play their fantasy hockey, I figured it would be helpful if I gave a brief guide on players to keep an eye on in the 2008-09 season. There are 16 rounds in a standard Yahoo league. I will break up the draft in quartets and give you a line of players to follow for each quarter. These will be based on Yahoo ADP (average draft positions found the “Draft Central” section of your hockey league. The first group would be Rounds 1-4 (inclusive), then Rounds 5-8, then Rounds 9-12, followed by a round of late round/undrafted players. [More]
