IMO, shortstop feels like the shallowest position in terms of attractive options. Maybe it's just me, but I don't think 2B is all that shallow compared to recent years. Catcher always will be very shallow in 15-team, two-catcher leagues - mathematically it just has to be.

As always going against the grain, I see a proliferation of 1B/DH types in the OF meaning AB being lost to defensive replacements as well as more platoons based on splits (which can also help keep salaries down). Since we need five and possibly six (I personally like to have an OF as my UT player), I actually think that OF is pretty thin (accepting that catcher will always be the thinnest).

Richard,

Remember the opinions here are not worth the paper it would take to print them. Each of us has a different style and each draft/auction is different.

Trust in your own impressions.

Use the force.

Show me "paint the fence".

Good luck!
