Top-tier talents such as Chase Utley (86 games), Dustin Pedroia (123), Ian Kinsler (150) and Rickie Weeks (204) have all missed significant time due to injury over the last four seasons. Heck, even the likes of Brian Roberts, Aaron Hill, Freddy Sanchez and Carlos Guillen have missed time in recent seasons. The only stalwart?

Over the last four months, I’ve poured hundreds of hours into researching, ranking and re-ranking the top 100 players in fantasy baseball. This Big Board is much different than most, however. I’m going to give you something you can’t get anywhere else free of charge. Instead of just listing names without justification, Fantasy Baseball Insiders provides not only MLB Odds and the top-100 overall rankings, but includes a few nuggets on each player, and links to an in-depth individual analysis complete with 2010 stats, three-year averages, and calculated 2011 projections! These rankings and projections consider past achievements and expected future results based on standard 5×5 H2H settings...

Last July, I featured an article on Brandon Phillips. At the time of publication (July 3), Phillips was batting .309 with 10 HRs, 10 steals, and was tied for the league lead in runs with 62. Yet despite his hot-hitting ways, I nominated Phillips as a prime sell-high option. In the remaining 74 games, Phillips hit just .238 with five HRs and four steals. How was I able to predict this sudden in-season decline?

Through 82 team games (324 at-bats) this season, Reds‘ second baseman Brandon Phillips is tied with Boston’s Kevin Youkilis for the major league lead in runs, with 62. Phillips also has 10 homers and 10 steals at the mid-way point, putting him on pace for his fourth consecutive 20/20 season. Perhaps the most surprising stat, however, is Phillips’ batting average. In four and a half seasons with the Reds, Phillips has never finished with a batting average higher than .288, and his career mark is an uninspiring .269...
RT @cardboardgods: @Buster_ESPN My eyewitness opinion: Buster was VT's Danny "Little Red" Lopez of hay-bailing (i.e., the pound-for-pound champ). GM Neal Huntington and I grew up on dairy farms,so after talking Pirates on the podcast, we rated our farming skills. http://t.co/374zOHCiun
