Draft Buddy and Last Player Picked are now available for the 2019 fantasy baseball season. Draft Buddy includes Steamer projections, MLB depth charts and Average Draft Position data from early National Fantasy Baseball Championship drafts. Last Player Picked is loaded with Steamer projections.

Since I had all the necessary data readily available, why not make these tools available earlier than usual? I’m sure many fantasy baseball players are already looking ahead to the upcoming season, and would love to start their research over the holidays. Historic stats for the 2016-2018 seasons are in Draft Buddy, and you can run LPP with last year’s MLB season stats, too.

Fantasy Baseball Draft Buddy

For those not familiar with Draft Buddy, it is our custom cheatsheet rankings and draft tracker tool, based in Microsoft Excel. It works for roto and fantasy points scoring, mixed, AL- and NL-only player leagues and auction and pick style drafts. You can customize your cheatsheets in a variety of ways, including a weighted average of projections and prior stats. We update Steamer projections and add more projections sets through the winter and early spring.

This version of Draft Buddy includes Target Percentages, a concept we learned about last year from our fantasy baseball guru, @Roto_Chris.

Last Player Picked

Last Player Picked is an online tool that provides rankings with dollar values for players. It works for roto and fantasy points scoring, and mixed, AL- and NL-only leagues. You can input rostered players and values for keeper leagues, to see the inflation impact on the remaining available player pool for your fantasy baseball league.

Not sure which to use? Try both! Draft Buddy is a download and does require Microsoft Excel to function. Register a free member account to access the Draft Buddy download. Both tools are free to use. Now get and early jump on the competition in your fantasy baseball league. If you have any questions about either feature then let me know.
