In March I predicted the top 10 rookies of 2011 in terms of fantasy value. Now that the season is over, lets review my rankings...

In one of the most anticipated roster moves of the 2011 season, the Kansas City Royals have promoted third base prospect Mike Moustakas from Triple-A. He is expected to make his major league debut Friday night at Anaheim. Moustakas ranked as the No. 9 prospect according to Baseball America prior to the 2011 season, one spot behind teammate Eric Hosmer, and several spots ahead of productive rookies Michael Pineda (16), Freddie Freeman (17), Zach Britton (28), Danny Espinosa (66) and Craig Kimbrel (86)...

While several young prospects are anxious to help your fantasy team this season, only a select few will begin the year on a big league roster. This makes this list difficult to project. Fortunately, I have it covered. Just remember this: While these up-and-coming stars can be exciting to own, they’re not going to carry your team to fantasy stardom. Their true value is multiplied in dynasty and keeper formats...

Third base has become surprisingly thin in recent seasons. While the elite players (Wright, Longoria and perhaps even Rodriguez, Youkilis and Zimmerman) offer fantastic production, the rest of the group offers nothing but questions. Kevin Youkilis doesn’t have third base eligibility yet, but he’s worth the wait. After a week or two (depending on what site you play on), he’s the fourth-best player at the position. Expected bounce-back seasons from Aramis Ramirez, Mark Reynolds and Pablo Sandoval could lend some depth to the hot corner by season’s end. An emerging Pedro Alvarez won’t hurt, either...
RT @RyanDivish: @StoneLarry with the confirm that Zunino is being called up. Wow. Definitely a little surprised. He was preparing the CWS a year ago RT @ajcbraves: #Braves Gattis in his past 17 games: 13-for-41 (.371) with 1 double, 7 homers, 17 RBIs, 5 walks, 8 strikeouts, .408 OBP, .854 slugging% RT @JamesWagnerWP: RT @AdamKilgoreWP Scott Boras says Bryce Harper had "no operative procedures" during his visit to Dr. James Andrews http://t.co/wQlleq0aZ2 If Ian Stewart prefers to be released, he'd have a better chance by offering to forgo remaining $1.3m salary for '13. http://t.co/RVz5c7K5EM
Both NFBC & ESPN have Hishashi Iwakuma as the #1 SP in fantasy baseball (5x5): 7 wins, 1.79 ERA, 0.82 WHIP & 87 K's in 95.1 IP #mindblown Thanks to @williamfleitch for having me on the podcast! We'll Tweet out the links when it's posted... \m/
My feature on Javier Baez, who hit four homers for the @daytonacubs last night: http://t.co/TlPYPQsoCi #Cubs Adam Dunn has 422 career homers; he's closing in on Cal Ripken and Billy Williams on the all-time HR list. http://t.co/wDjIVb9cYd With his outing tonight, Clayton Kershaw moves into the NL ERA lead; at 1.88, he's a hair above Shelby Miller (1.91). http://t.co/RkpOos6PJL Jason Marquis fun to watch because he doesn't have great stuff--87-88 mph sinkers, 82-83 sliders--but just lives in bottom edge of the zone.© 2013 Fantasy Baseball Insiders.
