Slow drafts are slow today. Thought I'd chuck up some rankings. It's a shame we don't have a Rankings Game on the diamond.

SP
1.
Clayton Kershaw 2. Max Scherzer 3. Madison Bumgarner 4. Noah Syndergaard 5. Yu Darvish
6. Corey Kluber 7. Jacob deGrom 8. Justin Verlander 9. Jake Arrieta 10. Chris Archer
11. John Lester 12. Stephen Strasburg 13. Johnny Cueto 14. Carlos Martinez 15. Chris Sale
16. Masahiro Tanaka 17. Cole Hamels 18. Felix Hernandez 19. John Gray 20. Kyle Hendricks
21. Garrett Cole 22. Danny Duffy 23. James Paxton 24. Jose Quintana 25. Dallas Kuechel


1B
1.
Paul Goldschmidt 2. Anthony Rizzo 3. Freddie Freeman 4. Joey Votto 5. Miguel Cabrera
6. Wil Myers 7. Eric Hosmer 8. Edwin Encarnacion 9. Carlos Santana 10. Hanley Ramirez
11. Greg Bird 12. Jose Abreu 13. Chris Davis 14. Daniel Murphy 15. Josh Bell


2B
1.
Jose Altuve 2. Robinson Cano 3. Daniel Murphy 4. Trea Turner 5. Brian Dozier
6. Rougned Odor 7. Ian Kinsler 8. Devon Travis 9. Dustin Pedroia 10. Matt Carpenter
11. Jean Segura 12. Logan Forsythe 13. D.J. LeMahieu 14. Brandon Drury 15. Javier Baez


3B
1.
Nolan Arenado 2. Kris Bryant 3. Manny Machado 4. Josh Donaldson 5. Kyle Seager
6. Anthony Rendon 7. Todd Frazier 8. Adrian Beltre 9. Jonathan Villar 10. Evan Longoria
11. Matt Carpenter 12. Alex Bregman 13. Justin Turner 14. Maikel Franco 15. Nick Castellanos


SS
1.
Manny Machado 2. Carlos Correa 3. Xander Bogaerts 4. Francisco Lindor 5. Corey Seager
6. Jonathan Villar 7. Troy Tulowitzki 8. Trevor Story 9. Jean Segura 10. Marcus Semien
11. Addison Russell 12. Javier Baez 13. Tim Anderson 14. Elvis Andrus 15. Jorge Polanco


OF
1.
Mike Trout 2. Kris Bryant 3. Mookie Betts 4. Bryce Harper 5. Giancarlo Stanton
6. Ryan Braun 7. Charlie Blackmon 8. Nelson Cruz 9. Jose Bautista 10. George Springer
11. Starling Marte 12. Trea Turner 13. A.J. Pollock 14. Gregory Polanco 15. Yoenis Cespedes
16. Carlos Gonzalez 17. Justin Upton 18. Christian Yelich 19. Mark Trumbo 20. Andrew McCutchen
21. Khris Davis 22. Joc Pederson 23. Matt Kemp 24. Adam Eaton 25. Andrew Benintendi



Man... after doing this, I feel like it's pretty useless. To rank OF or SP (for example) between 26 and 50, there really is not much difference.

Baez was on my bust list, but if injuries occur (or Zobrist falls off the old age cliff), I don't deny his upside.

Stanton is a pipe dream, but you try and tell me he won't be top five if he plays 145 games?

Tried to get at least one "sleeper" in all lists... Gray, Bell, Drury, Castellanos, Polanco, Pederson.


...started this because my three slow drafts were in a coma. (sorry I didn't check in to MBBRL halfway into this)...

anywhoo... enjoy

Thanks @TKOSpikes
I know I vowed to not play FB again cuz, well I suck at it, but I've been duped into drafting and running a team for the same chick that I partner with in the Fantasy League of Death in football. She is paying $150 for me to run her team.................not too smart. Anywho, I needed a cheat sheet that I could trust.

Not very deep here (as I said with SP and OF)... but I suggest the Fantasy Assembly rankings (btw), @tlance , I don't see your rankings... not there anymore?

interesting... maybe I'll try and list them out as I see them... might take a while.

Nats, Mets, Dodgers, Giants and Cubbies will lead the group, I'm sure.

At first glance... I don't feel like Benintendi belongs there.

Believe it or not I was thinking something along those lines.........they are telling me the staffs don't score much

Thanks TK..............looks like the scoring rules are as goofy as the football league.

Right on. So I have the second pick, do I take Altuve at 2?

Probably the right move. I love Arenado, but can't defend a non-Altuve pick.

how many hitters do you start? CI?, MI?
