      Pollock is 8th ranked this year and not making many pundits lists

        No love for Votto?

        How do you rank the Blackmon/Pollock/LoCain tier? ie the guys who can go 12-20 HR, 25-35 sb with a plus AVG? Cutch isn't running nearly as much so are we convinced he's above that tier? Is Starling Marte in this tier? Brantley?

        The power-only tier of EE, Bautista, Abreu, JD Martinez? And then Chris Davis/Nelson Cruz? Is CarGo in this tier?

        Dee Gordon, currently 5th on the player rater

        Is Trout ever going to run like he used to? Are you believing in Kris Bryant?

        For me, something like

        Goldy
        Trout
        Harper
        ----
        Donaldson
        Rizzo
        Miggy

        After that I have no idea and would probably throw my hands up. I think I'd go Arenado, Kershaw, Cutch, Blackmon. I'm less inclined to believe in Machado's speed than some of the other guys. I like Altuve more than most.

          votto is a 2nd rounder IMO, because his walks are still offsetting his RBIs.

          I think Blackmon/Cain/Brantley/Pollock are squarely 2nd rounders, due only to low HR totals.

          CDavis and Cruz merit serious consideration as first rounders.
