30 teams in 60 days of quarantine: Colorado Rockies 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 Colorado Rockies were 22nd in wins last year with 71.

This offense is still elite since they were able to retain Arenado and Blackmon. As always, the pitching is the question mark.

Make sure to pay close attention to the Rockies number of home and road game once the truncated schedule is finalized for this year. Their offensive numbers will suffer if they play significantly less games at home, but the pitching will be better.

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 San Diego Padres 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!
