Apparently I've forgotten how to read the English language during the years since I got an English degree. For some reason I never even saw him at #20, possibly because I expected him to be in the top 15. I thoroughly enjoy reading this blog. Keep up the excellent work. Respectfully, Poincare Oops!

I do agree tho, he does have top-15 upside. Poincare - Nope, I have him slotted at No. 20. I do agree tho, he does have top-15 upside.

I know he's one of the top 30; he's probably one of the top 15. Just thought I'd let you know.

Helton is falling so far in most drafts, he's almost a sleeper. His power days are over tho I think. Anyway, keep the rankings comin! Agree with almost all of these rankings.

There's no doubt about it, third base is a much deeper position this year. Nick Johnson is such a slow healer....I'm also going to try to avoid taking Howard in the first.

I liked Nick Johnson as a sleeper until the new injury news. I think you're right on with most analysis; D-Lee in the 3rd is happening, and is a steal, and I'm not buying into Morneau's 2nd half (though he should be very good). Somebody from the Swisher/Shealy/Jackson/Gonzalez group should really break out and have a big season, but I really haven't a clue as to which one is going to make the jump (Swisher's 1st half last year showed his potential, but I still see him hitting about .265 unless he radically improves his place discipline). When all is said and done, I don't see Howard putting up 1st-round caliber numbers. It’s strange…I think 3B is actually the more stacked position this year, who ever thought that would be possible?
