Fantasy Baseball: 2020 Toronto Blue Jays fantasy preview
By Mike Marteny
30 teams in 60 days of quarantine: Toronto Blue Jays fantasy preview
This series of fantasy baseball articles was intended to be something to pass the 30 days without DFS. Well, it looks like the wait may be longer for my fortes, the NBA and MLB. I’m staggering these to last us 60 days without DFS now. At least it gives you a little something!
Most of you, like me, have played DFS for quite some time. We have never seen anything like this before. A bare lobby. No upcoming contests. E-Sports touts are in hog heaven. Even most DFS touts are trying to become E-Sports touts. It’s nuts!
Most of you, also like me, still play season-long fantasy baseball. Some for money. Some not. Some just because it’s the only interaction you have with some friends anymore. Whatever the case, we can use this break in DFS to get us polished up for our fantasy baseball drafts, whenever those may be. We started at the bottom and are slowly moving up. The Toronto Blue Jays were 26th in wins last year with 67.
There is plenty of light at the end of this tunnel for the Toronto Blue Jays though. This team has some of the best hitting prospects around and rebuilt a pitching rotation through trades and free agency to speed up the rebuild. If the Jays were in any division but the A.L. East, they may even hit .500 this year.
There are quite a few fantasy-worthy players on this team. The key is not overpaying or trying to get them at a value. You can’t win your season in the middle rounds, but you can sure lose it there.
Here we will examine the Toronto Blue Jays projected lineup and rotation, and who to draft and in what general spot. We will also take a look at prospects that could make their debuts and have a fantasy impact in 2020. The 2019 stats are in parentheses. Let’s get started!
