   Where have Lofton’s wheels gone?

   They left him the same time his 30s did.

   As always, looks good. Although I had Baldelli coming in at #868.

   Love the #1 Ranking of Grady. I am in total agreeance. Can you see a .300 avg (biggest stretch of them all), 150 runs, 80 rbi, 30 HR and 50 SB?

   Ordonez seems like a first tier outfielder to me, 67 RBI’s and hitting .383 with the best OPS in all of baseball. AL MVP looks like its between A-Rod and Magglio at this point.

   Brett – Sizemore is the man. I loved the fact he had so many XBHs last year at his age, but I didn’t expect him to run so much this year. All those projections are feasible, although he does strike out a bit too much, so a .280 BA is more likely. He scored 134 runs last year and has improved his OBP by .32 points this year. Wait till Hafner gets hot, 150 runs could happen.

   Paul – Totally agree Mags has been baseball’s best hitter thus far. But from here on out, his last few season made me drop him a bit. That said, putting him above Beltran/Abreu certainly wouldn’t be a stretch. He’s been extremely lucky with BABIP, so some regression is likely. However, the 29/39 K/BB ratio is awesome, and he’s showing no signs of letting up.

   At 33 and in a career decline before this season, it’s hard to not expect decent drop off, but he does have a career OPS close to .900, and having Sheffield around certainly helps as well. He does have a past history with injuries, but I wouldn’t argue too much moving him into tier 1. The numbers so far certainly back it up.
