Was just pre-ranking, and I noticed there seemed a complete dearth of reliable, decent outfielders of the sort who'd normally go in rounds 5-12 or so. I mean, Ordonez was almost certainly a double-figure round pick in 06, this year's he's probably going in the eighth or earlier. Raul Ibanez, OK he had a career year, but the guy went undrafted in a lot of leagues last year. This season, probably a no2 OF. Last year an outfielder as good as Jermaine Dye was sitting there at the end of drafts.
Seems to me like the OF positions could be primed for a new generation to come in and establish themselves as solid fantasy number two type guys, similar to how Hamels, Verlander et al did in 06. Thoughts?
