It seems that over the last couple of weeks the Internet has been littered with advice on exercising patience with your roster in April. Since I’ve already taken my turn beating that topic into the ground, I thought I’d find something more fun to talk about.

Keeper Search: Josh Willingham
An after-thought in most leagues heading into the season, one of the hottest players in 2012 so far is Minnesota OF Josh Willingham. One of those players who always seems to be available in the free agent pool, Willingham has posted a .389/.476/.778 line to start the season, while posting 8 R, 4 HR, 8 RBI and 1 SB – good enough to land him as the 5th best player on ESPN’s Player Rater.

Keeper Implications: Bailey, Aceves
Aceves to start season as Bailey’s replacement
For owners in single season leagues, news of Andrew Bailey going down for anywhere from 3-6 months (depending on which source you believe) has altered his owner’s seasons before the first game has been played in the U.S.
But for keeper league owners, Bailey’s latest injury will not only affect this season but leaves owners with a big decision to make for the future.

Keeper Search: Brian Matusz
As we sit here on the eve of the non-Japanese opener of the baseball season, there are keeper league owners that are already focusing on 2013. So, in order to get a jump on the competition, Keeper Search will highlight players that are under the radar right now but could be keeper worthy by the offseason.
To lead off Keeper Search for 2012, I’ve decided to focus on a guy I am really high on for this year and beyond, Orioles SP Brian Matusz.

Upcoming posts
As news has come in the last week that has impact on keeper leagues, I’ve tried to provide a long-term perspective on the move. However, I’ve also noticed that fewer people have started visiting the site since I started this, leading me to believe this is not a popular feature.
- Is that the case?
- If so, what type of content do you want Derrick and I to focus on?
- How often are you expecting new content?
I bring this up because this site is about providing news, rankings and analysis from a keeper owner’s perspective so I want to make sure that what I’m spending my time on is useful. If you have a minute, please let me know what content you like and what you want to see added to the site. Thanks.

Keeper Implications – Chisenhall, LaPorta, Thames, Snider
Indians delay the future a little bit longer
The Indians brought some clarity to roster by optioning 3B Lonnie Chisenhall and 1B/OF Matt LaPorta to Triple A. While Cleveland’s offseason moves signaled a lack of faith in LaPorta, apparently Chisenhall has some adjustments to make as well. [Read more...]
