The main thing to remember is that the NFL is played by human beings and no one game can be called a sure thing or a "Lock". It's a good idea to limit your selections in this sport because Murphy's law applies big time. If something can go wrong it will go wrong. How ... read more
The elite left-handed starters have a big advantage just for the simple fact that most players see a lot more right-handed pitching. Also, batting practice is mostly thrown by righties. Look for teams that have not faced a Quality left-handed starter for some time ( five games or more) and you will have a nice winning investment. Here are my Top 5 left-handed starting pitchers age 27 or younger go ... read more

I am looking forward to another profitable NHL season. I finished the 2009-10 season ranked #1 for the fourth time in my career.
Pay close attention as this article has produced major profits since I started in 1998. Last year, we pretty much nailed both of our two spotlight NHL teams with the Ottawa Senators and LA Kings. The Senators made the ... read more

Top Daytime Starting Pitchers over the last three Seasons.
I think generally speaking most pitchers will perform better in the daytime than at night. Most day games are played after night games which helps the pitcher a great deal. Also, the sun creates shadows that gives all batters fits. The following eight starters have been awesome in day games over the last three seasons.

Baseball starts in less than 3 weeks and I know every team like the back of my hand. I have been writing baseball articles for numerous websites since the beginning of the Year. I am ready for a Monster winning year. Below is my 2010 MLB Fantasy Preview (Third Baseman) and if you missed any other position previews please visit my website.
If you have the #2 overall pick in your draft please take Hanley Ramirez. Look how he has dominated the 3-year average leaders. He is getting better! I see a lot of good young players at this position that I haven't seen in quite some time. I dropped Jose Reyes a few spots because he most likely will start the season on the DL. Troy Tulowitzki makes the biggest jump on my rankings from #14 last se ... read more
JH-Sportsline's 2010 MLB Fantasy Preview: Second Baseman
I would try to grab one of my Top 7 or take a strong look at my sleeper pick. The talent really falls off at this position so it would behoove you to draft a top-notch elite player. There could be at least 3 rookies to start the year at 2B, which is always a gamble. Cleveland (Luis Valbuena), Detroit (Scott Sizemor ... read more
JH-Sportsline's 2010 MLB Fantasy Preview: First Baseman
There are a lot of really solid First Baseman once again this season. If you don't get a Top-notch guy chances are you will still end up with a very productive player. This position has historically been the least injured. *My #1 Overall pick would be Albert Pujols. He is as close to a LOCK as it gets in Fantasy and has a rea ... read more
It really helps to grab two solid Catchers when playing Fantasy Baseball. I know that's not an easy thing to do. The average starting Catcher plays about 110 games with the other 52 going to back-ups. Injuries are always a concern at this position and you should draft accordingly.
With approximately 20 games left for each team we separate the contenders from the pretenders for NHL Postseason play. I also list four teams to fade the rest of the way in each conference.

Jeff Hochman's 2009 MLB Fantasy Preview: Third Basemen (3B)
As you might expect this position is also thin and very injury riddled. I bumped Alex Rodriguez from #1 to #5 based on his injury. He is basically undraftable until we know exactly how long he will be out. Someone will either steal him or draft him too soon this year. I personally like drafting guys that start the sea ... read more
Jeff Hochman's 2009 MLB Fantasy Preview: Shortstops
This position is very thin like most years so draft accordingly. I see about 15 shortstops that are worth drafting and than a lot of question marks that will give you a major headache. Depending on the number of teams in your league, you could end up taking supermarket knock-off Advil on a nightly basis. Do yourself a favor ... read more

Jeff Hochman's 2009 MLB Fantasy Preview: Second Baseman
I would try to grab one of my Top 6 or take a strong look at my sleeper pick. The talent really falls off at this position so it would behoove you to draft a top-notch proven stud. If your drafting around #7 in the 1st round don't hesitate on scooping up Chase Utley. The guy has a short-compact swing and that fits nicel ... read more

There are a lot of really good First Baseman this season so if you don't get a Top-notch guy chances are you will still end up with a very productive player.
