Major League Baseball : Fantasy : Ask Rotoman

I try to choose questions for the column that have underlying concepts that will apply to other questions the reader may have. This week’s Beltran for Abreu query struck me as so odd, yet the heart of the matter could prove to be crucial for many fantasy teams.

I felt obliged to return to Edgar Renteria because, well, I’ve long thought his career would look more like a string of 2003s than 2001s.

Joe Crede, Oscar Robles, Dan Johnson are three corners in a square that makes a sign that says, Not worth a lot. But perhaps useful.

And then there are potential breakout rookie starting pitchers and speedsters. Long shots worth thinking about, to say the least.
