Video Game Review: Killzone 3

/ Video Game Reviews

Most notable is the inability to go prone. This may sound inconsequential in a cover-based shooter, but even while behind cover you can still be shot by enemies in front of you (ones that shouldn’t have an angle). It’s at its worst when they have the high ground as no matter what you do, you’re leaving some portion of your body exposed. There’s also no way to move in cover while aiming — you can obviously strafe at any other point so I don’t understand the logic of prohibiting it.

2011 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Top 50 Prospects, Part II

He was brought up to the big leagues as a reliever last year, but was sent back down to stretch out his arm as a starter, however, he developed a shoulder issue. From the sounds of it, he’s fine now and will compete for a rotation spot this spring, but is more likely targeted for the Triple-A rotation. In his first taste of the Show, the youngster had some serious control problems, an issue that’s cropped up from time to time in his professional career. I also worry about the young righty’s frame (6’0”, 162), but there’s no denying he has upside as a No. 1 starter. The Mets believe they have a real gem on their hands with Mejia, so hopefully they will stop screwing with him and keep him as a starter for the foreseeable future. He probably could use at least a half-season in the Triple-A rotation to hone his control before he’s ready to come back to New York – this time to stay, I assume.

The Wire Troll: Deadline Headlines

/ Basketball, Buck Davidson, The Wire Troll

Kaman posted 10 points, nine rebounds and two blocked shots on Friday, and could be a threat to move back into the starting lineup in the next few games. His skills on the offensive end elevate his game above Jordan’s, and the Clips definitely need help on that end of the floor. If Kaman is available in your league, he’s definitely worth adding; he should produce useful big-man stats even while playing in a reserve role.

2011 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Second Base Rankings

For a middle infielder, Cano’s been very durable for the past few years, and not only has he racked up back-to-back 200-hit seasons, but last year he improved his walk rate and power to career best levels. A near-30 homer player that hits for average and can now get on base with the best of them (.381 OBP last year)? The only thing Cano can’t do is steal many bases, but his monster 2010 vaults him to the top of the keystone corner rankings.

This season, there are only 16 players that return from our 2010 rankings, mostly because a whopping 21 of last year’s Top 45 prospects have graduated to the bigs. Also attributing to the small number of returnees is a larger number of players than usual – eight in total – that dropped off the list this season. That means there are a whopping 34 newcomers to the list this season – by far the most ever (only partially explained by our increase from a top 45 to a top 50 list). So if you like newbies, you’ve come to the right place.
