8. DBTH (Don't Believe the Hype)
No matter how many seasons we've danced in this game, it's awfully difficult to avoid leaping onboard the bandwagon of the latest prospects. We've spent the off-season heaping praise on players such as Colby Rasmus, Evan Longoria, Jarrod "Salty" Saltalamacchia and Homer Bailey. All four players will begin the year in the minor leagues. Now, I fully stand by my belief that these players will make significant contributions to fantasy "bottom" lines before this season ends. However, owners need to seek alternatives along the way. How about the less-hyped Eugenio Velez of the Giants? Velez has now stolen 14 bases this spring.
5. Spring at-bats will help to slow your heart rate
It's not a cure-all, but it helps. We turned the page to baseball following the thrilling Super Bowl win by the Giants and have been speculating about the health and performance of our heroes. Take, for instance, Albert Pujols's elbow. Pujols remains somewhat of an injury concern, but he's tied for third in the major leagues with 18 RBI this spring (five home runs and a robust .414 batting average).
