I'm not one for making my own cheat sheets, so I do what I can to grab as much free stuff I can find. Having a good overall list is important for me because I play in an autodraft league.

I took the rankings from ESPN, MLB, Yahoo, CBS Sportsline, Sporting News, Baseball Docs, Fantasy Sports Central, Addict Sports, Sports Fanatics and the Cafe's own Curious George. I calculated the average rankings for each player to create the following cheat sheet. I'm sure they're not perfect, but certainly a reasonable reference. It doesn't work well to go past 100 since the lists are all different lengths and you don't get rankings for all the lower ranked guys.

Hopefully this will help somebody!

Good list. I think Vernon Wells is too high and David Wright is too low. Just my 2 cents.

Am I the only one that thinks there is no way Edmonds will stay healthy this year? I wouldn't come close to drafting him that high.
Maybe i'm missing something.

You are missing something .... well a few things. Firstly, Edmonds has averaged 145 games played in the last 3 seasons, so in my mind, he's not that big of an injury concern. Then those numbers. 42 HR, 111 RBI, 102 runs, .301 BA, .418 OBP, 1.061 OPS, 8 SB. And it's not going to get any worse this season staying smack dab in the middle of that Cardinal lineup. Underrated in my mind ... he's a top 13 OF on my list.
