Latos is enjoying an incredible year and, yes, in all probability his IP will be monitored. That being said, he is an integral part of the Padre rotation and he will be starting down the stretch as San Diego moves towards clinching the NL West. My guess is you’ll see him going no deeper than 90 pitches per start, but based on his recent performances that should still give him plenty of win opportunities.

This year’s list may be more cruel than last year’s edition. Names have not been changed to protect the innocent. Please also note that several players are multi-position eligible unlike years past, it seems. There are some pretty strange picks in here so it is time to just get right on down to this and then we can let the debating begin. While we wonder if the young and improving Islanders are ready to take a run at a playoff spot, let’s examine the top left wingers in the game.

Some may find gun accuracy to be an issue as well, though that was clearly a design decision to simulate more realism with the weapons as well as the characters’ lack of special training. After struggling initially I came to embrace the aiming. Also of interest, there’s no melee attack for close quarters combat — instead, pressing (B) has you grab an enemy and use him as a human shield.

The difference in the last year is that Johnson’s surprisingly dominating sophomore year gave him 2,006 rushing yards on 358 carries averaging 5.6 yards per rush. This, along with 14 rushing TDs and 50 receptions for 503 yards and two receiving TDs, gave him 329 Fantasy points last season in standard point systems. This season, Johnson should put up similar numbers with fewer yards on the rushing side, but still rank as the best in the league. Peterson’s fumbling problem cost him the No. 1 spot, as he suffered from inconsistency with his running last year, as his yards per carry dropped to 4.4 after 5.6 in his rookie season and 4.8 in his second season.
