The other day I was listening to Craig Mish issue afternoon on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Channel, and spoke of the great dropoff in talent at third base, compared to two years ago. In fact, he did not say a "drop-off in talent," but explained that these guys we do not have much value as this year, two years ago.
And it was his job - the talent is there, but after a low in 2014 for many of these people like David Wright, Evan Longoria and Ryan Zimmerman, has third baseman only four players in the top 50 ranking of Tristan Cockroft Rankings ESPN.
Miguel Cabrera and Hanley Ramirez are no longer eligible third base and Alex Rodriguez has not really played in a few years.
My, how things have changed!
There are some aging veterans in the top 15 or so in the position, Adrian Beltre guys like Aramis Ramirez and the arrival of young talents like Kris Bryant and the rise of youth study as Alex Bogaerts and Nolan Arenado. We can also consider to add some players who 3B Authority, as Chris Davis, Anthony Rendon and Carlos Santana.
A quick look at the mean values of three years between the third basemen fantasy shows that it regularly:
- Beltre was the best player in the position as to occupied by his three-year averages of 28 homers, 90 RBIs and a fantastic way batting 0.319.
- Take the second best third baseman in the league head down to the last three seasons, you will be surprised to learn, is Kyle Seager Seattle! He averaged 600 at-bats (raised to the position) and 55-base hits - the third is only Beltre and Davis.
- Although Wright suffered an injury-plagued 2014 which is 13 stolen bases in average over the past three seasons.
Expect to see out another pair of basemen in the first two rounds as Rendon and Josh Donaldson are considered the best of the best "Hot Corner" and Belt in the third round. In MLB.com Mock Draft I am currently in, involved in the first 10 rounds of seven third baseman was drafted in the first five rounds, and 14 of them.
