Fantasy baseball: 2020 San Francisco Giants fantasy preview
By Mike Marteny
30 teams in 60 days of quarantine: San Francisco Giants 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 Cincinnati Reds were 18th in wins last year with 77.
MadBum is gone. Longoria, Posey, Crawford, and Belt all had down years. Where does this leave the Giants for 2020? In the brief spring training, they lost Tyler Beede, who may have been the staff ace this season. What’s left and what should you pay for it?
Here we will examine the San Francisco Giants 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!
