It’s time to check in on that topic again, as the large volume of injuries and recent emergence of exciting prospects has placed roster space at a premium. Here are some hitters who are no longer set-and-forget players. Please note that I’m not saying you have to cut these hitters, but rather than you can consider cutting them, based on your other teams and the… Source link

Has the Ian Happ breakout finally arrived? There’s been a respectable level of hype following Ian Happ ever since he was selected in the first round of the 2015 Amateur Draft.
