(Posted on 1/25/13 at 8:21 pm to blowmeauburn) K/9 and ab/hr is a good stat to use for guys who may not have gotten an extended look in the bigs. For instance, Edwin encarnacion's ab/hr hinted he could have nice power numbers if given a chance. Jeff Samardjza would be a good pitcher example. Metrics really don't play that big of a role, though. You win by having guys who produce in your 5x5 categories, plain and simple

I had a friend who drafted E5 every year from 2007-2011 because he always told me he would hit 35 homers one year. Gave up in 2012.

(Posted on 1/26/13 at 4:34 pm to blowmeauburn) In prospects I look for at least a walk for every 10 ABs and an OBP above .340. I'll take a shot on prospects who don't have a lot HRs but have a lot of doubles. It's only a matter of time before some of those doubles become HRs For pitcher prospects it's all a out WHIP a d K/9
