AL Only Deeper Draft Sleepers: Winter Hibernation Ends rotoballer.com Tue 3/31/15 7:15 AM

This article references Cliff Lee, Didi Gregorius, Justin Smoak, Nathan Eovaldi, Phil Hughes, Ricky Nolasco, Stephen Drew and more! The term sleeper is overused and commonly confused in fantasy sports. Too many people confuse the concept of a player being undervalued (i.e. a player getting drafted in the seventh round that is going to return fifth round value) versus a player being a true sleeper. When I think sleeper, I think Rip Van Winkle. I think of somebody that has been off the radar (or maybe has never been on the radar) for so long that people aren't even thinking about them. When talking about sleepers, especiall[...]Keep on reading: AL Only Deeper Draft Sleepers: Winter Hibernation Ends

Homers, shutouts, surging players who few have noticed. It's all in here today, as is a reference to a superhero that you might recognize.
