Add this years ESPN ranking/projection into last eyars rankings 'Comparison' column?

I am a casual baseball guy looking for a leg up (BasketballMonster junkie). I'd love to bring up last years rankings for my league (unique set of categories) and be able to see a column with this years ESPN player projections. I would then be able to scroll down and easily see discrepancies, and figure out some players to target in a snake draft.

Any chance of this? 

For example, Ketel marte was the #15 overall total value player in my league last season. This year he is ranked #32.

Hyun-Jin Ryu  was #30, this year he is at #101.

Can we get this years ESPN projections into a comparison column in last years rankings?

Thanks!!!

You can select Last Season Total Value as a comparison column under Projections.  Does this do it?

That is how I do it for hoops.

But there are no projections, as far as I know. Am I missing something? Or can I import the ESPN projections somehow?

We have an import under Settings/Import Projections.  Does ESPN allow an export to CSV or something?

Just went to Fangraphs and imported the 'Steamer' projections. Flawless and simple.

But I still ahve no way to compare those to current ESPN projections. Is there a way for you to ada an ESPN projection column or current ADP? (You seem to have it for Yahoo)

ESPN does have Live Draft Trends for snake draft position - can you get at this data and add it as a column? Or their rank?
