I'll try it myself:
1.Utley
no doubt about that one
2. Pedroia
2nd base still is a defensive position. Pedroia can hit a bit, too.
3. Zobrist
Monster 2009 he possibly won't be able to duplicate. I'm not sure he will play much 2nd base this coming season.
4. Roberts
Good OBP last three years, mediocre defense.But as consistent as it gets.
5. Cano
Very good 2009, horrible 2008 and good 2007.
Would put him at 4, but his 2008 kills him.
6.Hill
Good power numbers, bad OBP and average defense.
7. Kinsler
His arlington numbers are great. Away he is godawful.
8. Beckham
His away splits are much better. There is no doubt to me he will hit better at home this year, because US Cellular field is a hitter's park.
9.Hudson
10. Jose Lopez
They are behind quite a bit IMO. Hudson is the better hitter, Lopez the better defender, at least the last 3 years.

I've been reading these forums for a while, decided to make an account.
Couple things:
-Ian Kinsler is not overrated - he was the only player last year to be a member of the 30/30 club.
-I don't understand how Dustin Pedroia is only a 79-74 on contact when he's a career .307 hitter. He batted .296 last year and .326 in 2008 - his contact should be way higher.

I'll throw in another reminder about Jose Lopez. Wonder how he would of done playing at a home stadium like Cano and Kinsler have?
09 Away Splits : .313 17 HR 56 RBI
09 Home Splits: .229 8 HR 40 RBI
But carry on with this Cano being top 5 2B without any talk of Jose Lopez. We're used to it on the west coast.

Kinsler is by no means mvp caliber, I'm just saying you can't call a guy overrated when he has 30 hr, 30 sb, and 100 runs, especially when he's a second baseman.
On another note, I do agree with you on Cano. It is comical how he isn't in the top 3 or 4. I think Pedroia is a better OVERALL player than Cano cause of his defense and speed. (And cause I'm a Sox fan)
Also, these ratings probably took last season into account 80% when Ben Zobrist is that high - talk about a glitch of a year.

There's no need to repeat yourself. You said the EXACT same thing a couple posts ago - I can read.

I like all of the love for Ian Kinsler on the boards. I guess when you're part of the 30-30 club and when you are in the top ten of home runs, stolen bases, and runs; that qualifies you as overrated. I also don't get the hate for him batting at the Ballpark. When half of his games are there, he's supposed to be on fire in Arlington. I think Cano should be a bit higher, but Kinsler being second isn't a joke, especially since his best years are ahead of him.

I agree 100% with you PerfectZero. There's more to a player than his average - somehow 30-30-100 is overrated at second base. REALLY? But if there was a 40-40 player in any position, he would be named on the spot the best player in the league. And if you want to talk about Kinsler playing at a hitter's park, New Yankee Stadium is the biggest homerdome in the history of mankind, especially the right field jetstream....

Where is Dan Ugla? he is not even in the top ten, All star twice, a 30+ homers hitter....maybe he is not going to be on second base any more?

I think Pedroia's power is a little low. That dude can rake for a little guy
