>Will Pudge make a comeback?

He is on the downhill, but I would take last year's stats at the catcher position in a second.  I just wouldn't want to pay a lot for it (and that will be hard to do, even this year).

>Who is better Barry or Hank?

Character: Hank Aaron by a HUGE margin.  Ability:  Barry Bonds by a HUGE margin.

>Is Hank Blalock overated?

No way.  Barely 25 years old.  Guy will be a monster fantasy guy for years to come (think Rolen, and better than Chavez has been).

>Is Chase Utley the best fantasy second basemen?

No doubt.  5x5 guy.

>Did Toronto buy a title?

I am not sold that they can beat the Yanks.  Halladay and Burnett stay healthy, anything is possible with this team.  I reserve judgment, and answer a copped-out "Maybe."

>What make Beltran so special?

That he can run and has shown some potential for big power numbers, in the mold of an Abreu, but not quite there yet.

>Why pick a pitchter in the 1st round of a fantasy draft?

Because you got a low pick, and the big guys are already gone.  Otherwise, stay away (unless the pitcher also has 40 HR potential and, if in the AL, will be DH'ing, also).
