2010 Fantasy Baseball Projections

AB	R	H	HR	RBI	SB	BA	OBP	SLG	OPS
526	84	153	15	68	13	.291	.332	.451	.783

Melky Cabrera's lofty contact rate may be climbing, but his BB/K and baselines show you that the ceiling remains limited. Nine of his 13 2009 homers came at Yankee Stadium; don't expect double digits again. No reason to draft for continued improvement or even maintenance of 2009 levels, but market might ask for it.
