When it comes to Tim Lincecum, most fantasy leaguers will just conclude that this has been a lost season. It's done, that's it. A great September will help move the needle a little bit on next year's value, but for the most part he will be worth far less in drafts come March.
In redraft leagues, that's all you need to know. In keeper leagues, it's a little less clear.
Odds are Lincecum went for decent value last spring. He went for $25 in the National League Tout Wars and $22 in Tout Mixed. His average draft position was 24, a solid second round pick. For leagues that require a bump in salary or draft slot for keepers, I suspect that most fantasy owners will not protect him in 2013.
Lincecum is on my team in the XFL experts...
