30 teams in 60 days of quarantine: New York Mets 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 will be much longer. The MLB has a plan in place to play about half a season starting in early July. They just need the players to sign off on it.

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 Arizona Diamondbacks were 12th in wins last year with 86.

The Mets lineup is surprisingly loaded. That’s even with assuming Yoenis Cespedes isn’t starting. They also have the best pitcher in the league. There is plenty to like fantasy-wise on this team.

Here we will examine the New York Mets 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!
