And here is a list of OF'ers who play LF, CF, and RF. I usually try to snag one of these guys late as a bench player.

Actually, all you have to do is go in to edit your pre-rankings, show all players, go up to edit>select all, and then copy and paste it into Excel...
i may be a tad late but this is child's play. cant you just go to available players and sort it that way and then jot down your rankings in an excel or word document? i mean, its not as though yahoo rankings are worth anything other than a place to have a full database... the most disturbing ranking of all is hermida at 900 something.

Yes, you can, but to do this list, your way, you have to:
1. have a yahoo team. many here don't
2. copy/paste from multiple pages, as yahoo won't show more than 25 at a time.
3. go through and manually look up and type in first names for all players
go for it, child's play...
And if you don't want to do all that work, you can simply say "thanks" to these guys...

If you don't play Yahoo, this list is probably of no use to you. But if you do play Yahoo, you now have a copy of some of your competitor's rankings. This can be a real advantage to you.
For example, last year I targeted Carlos Lee in part because Yahoo had him pre-ranked at #108 (??). Various other sources ranked Lee between #31 (TSN) and no lower than #67 (ADP at ESPN). On my personal list I put Lee at #35. So on draft day (10 teams), I gambled that I could wait for a while for him, filled other needs, and got Lee in the 12th round at #112. The guy before me took M. Alou, probably because Yahoo pre-ranked Alou at #103, ahead of Lee at #108. Why? I dunno, but it helped to be prepared.

why would you copy and paste it? you should never use yahoo rankings for anything....if you are in a yahoo league, you already know how bad these rankings are, if you arent in a league, then you are one of the lucky ones who dont have to waste the lifespan of your eyes by witnessing them.
I had a similar experience with Carlos last year. I wanted Lee bad and the guy before me posted -Lee or Rowand? Someone answered Rowand and i ended up taking Lee and beatin that manager in the championship game . I no that may not be the only reason but targeting certain players according to yahoo rankings could be the keys to success . Thanks for the List
