My 3B rankings would be:

1. Machado (BAL)
2. Donaldson (TOR)
3. Arenado (COL)
4. Bryant (CHC)
5. Carpenter (STL)
6. Seager (SEA)
7. Beltre (TEX)
8. Longoria (TB)
9. Moustakas (KC)
10. Duffy (SF)


It's actually a pretty loaded position when Todd Frazier and David Wright are no longer among the top 10.

Moose doesnt belong in top 10 3B yet. He should be #1 in learning to beat the shift though.

My question isn't who the best is.

It's who the worst MLB player at each position is, according to the ratings. That'll be fun to figure out.

I don't know, I'm a Cubs fan and don't know much about Correa, Lindor, or Gallo.

I know Correa tore it up though, obviously.

Lindor was one of the most valuable players in the league even though he didnt play a full season. I dont have a problem with his rating

I'd put Escobar on that list somewhere. I'd drop Bryant down a few spots due to high strikeouts and questionable defense. He is young and could develop but Bryant is another Pedro Alvarez at this stage of his career. HR/K guy with shaky defense.

Oh, I don't think Bryant is as bad defensively as Alvarez. What do you Cubs fans think?

Bryant was eighth among NL 3B in fielding. .275 batting is not bad for first full season. I don't think he is another Pedro Alvarez at all.

By the way, still think Perez is that 70 blocking player?

I don't have a problem with SCEA's system but I believe 70 is very generous for a guy who was 4th highest WPA in MLB in 2015.
