2012 Draft Prep: Our 12-team, mixed Rotisserie draft

By | Data Analyst


  •  

The selection of Miguel Cabrera kicked off our early 12-team mixed Rotisserie mock draft, the results of which reflected many of the offseason's major developments. The anticipated move of Cabrera back to third base made him the most valued player in this draft, while the player who bumped him off of first base in Detroit, Prince Fielder, was snatched in the second round with the 14th pick overall.

Hanley Ramirez, who will also be making the move to the hot corner in 2012, remained the second-highest drafted shortstop-eligible player, going 10 spots after Troy Tulowitzki with the 15th pick overall. Jose Reyes, the Marlins' new shortstop, didn't last much longer, as he was taken with the 19th pick. The offseason development with the biggest impact, though, was the expected 50-game suspension of Ryan Braun for a failed drug test. The reigning National League MVP was not taken until the fifth round.

It wasn't until late in the second round that a pitcher finally went off the board, but neither of last season's Cy Young winners -- Justin Verlander or Clayton Kershaw -- got the honors. It was Roy Halladay who was the first selection among pitchers, going with the 21st overall pick, with Verlander and Kershaw getting taken with the 23rd and 24th picks. Not far into the draft, owners started to take some risks with their pitching choices, as the recovering Josh Johnson (shoulder) was taken in the sixth round. Tommy John survivors Stephen Strasburg (7th round) and Adam Wainwright (8th round) went shortly thereafter, and Japanese veteran Yu Darvish was drafted in the 10th round.

Player News
Lance Berkman
Berkman sidelined 8-10 weeks
Lance Berkman, 1B, STL
12:09 PM
News: St. Louis outfielder Lance Berkman is projected to miss the next eight to 10 weeks after having surgery Friday to repair a torn meniscus and another minor cartilage tear, the team announced. Berkman, who was placed on the disabled list last Sunday after suffering the injury while stretching to make a putout at first base, will begin his rehab work in Houston. The Cardinals anticipate Berkman returning to St. Louis for the latter part of his rehab. "It was great to hear his voice and hear that excitement," manager Mike Matheny said. "He's thinking about counting down the days until he's back."
Analysis: If there was a positive note to take from Berkman's surgery, it's that there was no mention of repairing his ACL, which likely would have ended his season. Instead, the 36-year-old slugger could return at some point following the All-Star break, but St. Louis will certainly be overly cautious during his rehab. "It was great news," Matheny said. "As good a news as we could get. The doctors were extremely optimistic about what they saw." Berkman ripped 14 hits in 13 games before the injury (.333), and should be reserved in all Fantasy formats for now.
Michael Cuddyer
Cuddyer scratched with stiff neck
Michael Cuddyer, RF, COL
7:06 PM
News: Rockies outfielder Michael Cuddyer was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Reds due to a stiff neck. Cuddyer has gone 7 for 13 (.538) with four RBI in his last four games.
Analysis: Cuddyer has picked up the pace at the plate recently so hopefully this injury does not keep him out for long. Keep an eye on his status over the weekend to see how he is looking heading into Week 9 (May 28-June 3). Cuddyer already has four homers with 27 RBI on the season and should be considered a solid option in the majority of Fantasy formats, when healthy.
Michael Morse
Morse to begin rehab assignment Mon.
Michael Morse, LF, WAS
6:35 PM
News: The Washington Post reports Nationals first baseman/outfielder Michael Morse, on the 15-day disabled list due to a back injury, will begin a rehab assignment with Class A Potomac on Monday. Morse played on an extended spring training game on Friday and hit two home runs.
Analysis: Morse is targeting a June 8 return and should be able to make that date, barring a setback. After batting .303 with 31 homers and 95 RBI a year ago, owners have been waiting to see what he can to this season so keep an eye on his progress going forward. Morse should continue to be stashed away in most Fantasy formats as a Week 10 (June 4-10) return is looking like a strong possibility.
Mark Reynolds
Reynolds to rehab at Double-A
Mark Reynolds, 3B, BAL
6:14 PM
News: MLB.com reports Orioles third baseman Mark Reynolds, on the 15-day disabled list, will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Bowie on Saturday. Reynolds has not played since May 10 due to a left oblique strain.
Analysis: Reynolds showed some signs of life at the plate before going down with the injury, batting .348 (8 for 23) with two homers and six RBI in his previous seven games. Keep an eye on his progress during his rehab stint to see when the 28-year-old will return. Despite his prowess for striking out, Reynolds has a ton of power potential and should continue to be stashed away in deeper mixed leagues while he's on the DL.
Blake Wood
Wood undergoes Tommy John surgery
Blake Wood, RP, KC
7:32 PM
News: Royals pitcher Blake Wood underwent successful Tommy John surgery Friday.
Analysis: Wood will miss the rest of the season and part of 2013 due to his injury but the good news is that many pitchers have made successful returns from this surgery. Due to his role in Kansas City, however, the right-hander is not worth stashing away in the majority of Fantasy formats.
Justin Sellers
Sellers heads to the DL
Justin Sellers, SS, LAD
7:32 PM
News: Dodgers shortstop Justin Sellers was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Friday, retroactive to May 23, as a result of a lower back injury. He was scratched on Wednesday with what was called numbness in his right leg, however that appears to have been related to the back injury. The team activated Jerry Hairston from the disabled list to take his place.
Analysis: Sellers has been hitting just .205 with one home run and two RBI in 19 games, so this is not a big loss. He has been playing more often recently as a result of injuries, however with Hairston back, he was likely going to see a loss in at bats anyways. At this point, he should be stashed only in the deepest of NL-only Fantasy formats.
Jerry Hairston
Dodgers get Hairston back
Jerry Hairston, 3B, LAD
7:23 PM
News: Dodgers third baseman Jerry Hairston was activated off the 15-day disabled list on Friday, in time to play third base and bat fifth for the team's matchup with the Astros that night. Hairston has been on the DL since May 7 with a hamstring injury. Infielder Justin Sellers was placed on the disabled list to make room for him on the active roster.
Analysis: Hairston was playing some solid ball before the injury, batting .315 in 19 games, so the Dodgers are happy to have him back. He will likely see close to everyday at bats, with the Dodgers dealing with some injuries, but he is still worth owning in only NL-only Fantasy leagues.
Salvador Perez
Perez catches in ext. spring game
Salvador Perez, C, KC
7:18 PM
News: The Kansas City Star reports Royals catcher Salvador Perez, on the 60-day disabled list, caught three innings during an extended spring training game Friday. Perez also went 4 for 4 with a home run at the plate. Perez has been sidelined since March after undergoing surgery to repair the lateral meniscus tear in his left knee.
Analysis: Perez appears to be ahead of schedule in his recovery and could return to the Royals before the end of June. The 22-year-old came into this season with some big expectations after batting .290 in the minors a year ago so keep an eye on his progress going forward. Perez is expected to make an impact upon returning so keep him stashed away in deeper Fantasy formats at this point.
Carlos Quentin
Quentin back on rehab stint
Carlos Quentin, LF, SD
5:47 PM
News: San Diego outfielder Carlos Quentin is expected to rejoin Class A Lake Elsinore on Friday as he continues his recovery from a knee injury, according to the North Country Times. Quentin, who has been on the disabled list all season, was shut down earlier this month after experiencing pain in his surgically repaired knee. "I think that time off gave him just what he needed, so we'll see how he does and take it day to day," manager Bud Black said.
Analysis: Quentin was able to take batting practice without any reported discomfort last Wednesday, but there is still no timetable for his return. The 29-year-old has played in two games for Lake Elsinore and recorded two hits and two RBI during seven at-bats. Fantasy owners should keep monitor Quentin's progress while keeping him reserved only in deeper formats for now.
Desmond Jennings
Jennings' return officially delayed
Desmond Jennings, LF, TB
5:42 PM
News: Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings, on the 15-day disabled list due to a sprained left knee, will not return until the end of next week "at the soonest," manager Joe Maddon told reporters on Friday. Maddon also added that Jennings would likely start a minor-league rehab assignment by sometime mid-week. The 25-year-old has been sidelined since May 12 with his injury.
Analysis: Jennings is eligible to be activated off the 15-day DL on Sunday, but the Rays have been saying all along that he needed more time. Maddon made it official on Friday, so it sounds like Jennings won't be ready to return until the end of Fantasy Week 9 (May 28-June 3) at the earliest. That is also barring any setbacks, so owners should keep an eye on his status during his rehab starts. Jennings can be considered a viable Fantasy start in all formats when healthy, but it sounds like he owners will have to wait until Week 10 (June 4-10) to get him active.
