We're still on the April page of the calendar, so the appropriate response to most fantasy-induced panic is still "it's too early." The phrase "small sample size" might be getting on our nerves, but it's still applicable. Yet this is not to say that there is no reason to dabble in some roster moves. Take my industry league teams (please). After the third weekend of play, my Tout Wars mixed auction squad has staggered its way to 10th place out of 15 teams, and in TGFBI, I am sitting in 11th place. The two rosters share…

Well, folks, Opening Day is finally here! Fans all over the globe are optimistic about the upcoming season, and fantasy owners are arguably even more so.

Last week in Dynasty Dugout, we ranked the top 50 fantasy baseball prospects. Now it's time to rank everyone. Well, not EVERYONE.
