Fantasy Funkhouser: Fantasy Baseball 2013 Ranks Auto-Pick Edition

The King wasn't the highest paid pitcher for long, but he got off to a great start for 2013. (theprovince.com)

Fantasy Funkhouser will review all things Fantasy Baseball. After all, life is a small sample size.

Nothing is quite like baseball's Opening Day from a fantasy perspective. All the teams trot out their best starters, offensive bats are mostly quiet, and everyone is extremely annoyed that they're already losing their head to head match-up 8-2. Yes, it's the perfect time to overreact and panic that Joey Votto may not get a hit all season, or if Justin Verlander only threw 5 innings because he's nursing an elbow injury.

These times will pass once you realize that there are 6 months left of regular season baseball. Lots can happen over that span of time; some good, some bad, but it'll be fun. So in my last installment of my ranks, I've gone into auto pick mode and list my Top 200. All of which haven't been altered in the slightest due to Opening Day. Enjoy.
