List your top 10 3rd Basemen

[Chi_archie]

down season at a few positions this year... 3RD being one of them. If you are a GM of an expansion team and can snatch 2nd basemen from any team. What does your 1-10 draft board look like?

[opie1988]

Without a fukkin doubt the overall #1 on everyones board has to be Adrian Beltre. PERIOD.

If its not, they simply don't know much about baseball.

I'd have to say no. At least not right now. Last year? No fukkin doubt about it.

Wait a minute....you being some sort of fukkin wise guy here, Zeta??

Brett lawrie

[samgurt]

1. David Wright
2. Miguel Cabrera though he is horrendous in the field
3. Beltre
4. Panda
5. Freese
6. A Rod
7. Longoria
8. Zimmerman
9. Chipper
10. Middlebrooks

I would probably have longoria around #4 if he was healthy. Such a stud in the field

david wright has been far and away the best 3rd baseman this year. it's not very close. i guess if you could get him for a 4 or 5 year deal, he would be the best player to take.

if you wanted someone younger and more cost control probably moustakas.

Mark Trumbo can play 3rd base

No he cant. He was a horror show @ 3rd. Numerous multiple error games. he has to play LF, or 1stb until he can learn the position.

[GOIRISH]

chipper jones

Like samgurt's list, agree with those

[Brock Landers]

No love for Brooks?

[taxe91]

for an expansion team: brett lawrie with longoria coming in 2nd. maybe give middlebrooks a little consideration too

for this season: miggy despite his fielding issues

the big wild card here would be mike olt. still in triple-A but is easily the highest ranked 3B prospect in baseball

Pedro Alvarez!!!

[Jago2008]

Chase Headley will begin to break the top 10 soon, if not already. Unheralded to the pub' because he plays in a small market like San Diego.

[Chi_archie]

I might put Chase right outside the top 5 right now
