Breakout Candidate Profile: Roenis Elias

There’s got to be something in the water in Cuba that gets their pitchers to develop the nastiest sliders you’ve ever seen.

Jose Fernandez has probably the nastiest slider I’ve seen on a right hander.

Obviously Aroldis Chapman has the 100-103 MPH fastball, but his equalizer is that devastating slider.

Add a young Cuban lefty Roenis Elias to that list.

Breakout Candidate Profile: Avisail Garcia

Looking for that next outfielder that’s going to hit you a decent to high average, hit some home runs, steal some bases, and score some runs? Basically do everything you need to help you win your league? Then look no further than White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia.

Breakout Candidate Profile: Marcell Ozuna

Friends, I come to you today with a question for you.

Do you ever get in the draft room, your draft is going great; you’ve got all your sleeper picks, Zack Greinke fell to you in the fourth round after you passed because you needed power, you’ve found that under the radar guy, or a guy you think no one knows about, and then your buddy, the only guy you’ve told about this particular player, goes and grabs your mancrush? Or even worse, the guy in your league who has no idea who he is grabs him because he saw his picture in a Matthew Berry article or in a Tweet by some second rate fantasy service?

We’ve all been there, am I right?
