Team Previews in a Fantasy Nutshell: Oakland Athletics
Projected Starting Lineup
C Stephen Vogt—Vogt is what I consider to be a safe pick. He will get about 450+ at bats (he is the A’s main C vs. RHP), and he can be expected to hit about 12-16 HR and 55-70 RBIs. He’s probably not a player I am considering until nine or ten other catchers are off the board.
1B Yonder Alonso—Just because Alonso is starting in real baseball doesn’t mean you should be starting him in Fantasy Baseball. He will play mostly against RHP and is nothing more than a weak CI in AL-only leagues.
