2016 MLB Draft Guide: Utilizing Late Round Picks

By: Ray Flowers

The thing I love most about fantasy baseball is the comradery. People do not realize how hard it is to get 10 or more people on the same page (it is actually quite a feat). That is what makes a baseball league special. For the duration of the season you will interact, trade, and maybe even argue with someone who may or may not have your baseball IQ. The league could be made up of your friends, family, strangers and sometimes even your wife/husband. If you think I’m lying I know a legend who will tell you different. The bottom line is there is more to this than money. It is a community. One which I hold in the highest esteem. I have met some of my best friends playing fantasy baseball and I sure some of you have as well.

Let’s talk about five simple strategies I employ in the later rounds of baseball drafts that have helped me have success over the last 20 years.

I’m going to start with the most basic point. Often we get so caught up in looking for what others may not see that we miss what is right in front of our faces. That, my friends, is simply just taking the best player available. The reality is even though we all want to be the guy who can say at the end of the season we had the fortitude to draft Carlos Correa or some hotshot youngster, the simple truth is the way to win is to have players who play daily. For instance, if you are in the 10th or 11th round and you need an outfielder and you have your mindset on drafting the next big thing you might have missed a guy like Kemp sitting right there waiting to be inserted into your lineup to give you numbers on a daily basis.
