MARKET PULSE: Eyeing Isaac
Jun 26 2022
NOTE for today's column — Based on recent feedback to dig a bit deeper, we've adjusted the hitter thresholds as follows:
- "Shallow leagues" from 50-80% rostered in Fantrax leagues to 40-70% rostered.
- "Deeper leagues" from 20-50% to 15-40%.
- "Pre-market" from <20% to <15% AND sorted by playing time/skills rather than rostership trends. See intro paragraph for details.
Appreciate the feedback, as always, as we try to cast a net that catches as many different league sizes as possible. —RB

Yes, the outfield is more scarce than several other positions. Who would have thunk it?

Both bargains and potential pitfalls in the 3B pool this year. Overall, though, it's going to be hard to find top-level players to fill out your roster.

Happy pre-season! This week, we'll examine the market for catchers, and will toss our DH-only guys in as well, since (with one exception), they're also slow as molasses.
