Jacoby Ellsbury (CF)
Jay Bruce (RF)

Is it a points or categories league? I would rank them as such:

CarGo - Easily a 20/20 player, but he needs to stay healthy.
Justin Upton - He could produce numbers very close to CarGo.
Ellsbury - He may slip in drafts as many will consider him an injury risk. I think that he'll produce numbers similar to CarGo (and possibly even more stolen bases).
Jay Bruce, Granderson - A lot of power, but beware of their lower batting averages and some bad weeks. Bruce is younger and has the better chance to improve.
Trumbo - Look at his 2nd half numbers from last season; no thanks.

Curtis Granderson (CF)....#3
Jacoby Ellsbury (CF)....#4

Definitely Cargo and J Up are early round studs. The rest can be value picks in a few rounds.

Carlos Gonzalez (LF) - Easy #1 of the this group
Curtis Granderson (CF) - 100+rbi/100+runs/40+hrs plus adds SBs. I think grandy gets underrated to much.
Justin Upton (RF) - Most have him ranked #2, and I get that but to me he still needs to have another huge MVP like season to rank about Granderson
Jacoby Ellsbury (CF) - Is he back from the injuries? This the OF that scares me the most has the potential but is he healthy?
Jay Bruce (RF) - Still young and getting better.
Mark Trumbo (LF/RF/1B/3B) - Great Lineup. Hopefull doesn't have the second half slump again.

These all will be very solid OFs in Fantasy baseball this year.

Please help with mine. http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=454749
