Many would say that second base is a thinner position most years. To an extent I would agree, but that doesn't make me reach any sooner than I have to for a second baseman or middle infielder. Unless I'm in an AL/NL only league or super deep league, there is usually someone late I'm content with drafting. This year isn't all that different. There are a few elite guys on the board followed by some decent second tier talent. Let's take a look at my big board at 2B:
Looking a bit deeper at my projections, second base feels a bit deeper this year than in years past. While I'd be happy with any of the top options, I'm be content with a number of the mid to late round picks as well. My middle infield slot will likely be filled by a 2B option, but that says more about the lack of talent at SS.

I like the rankings,however I think you might have sold Joe Panik a little short.

Hey Chris, thanks for the feedback. I can see your point. Some of my reservation comes from playing time. I want to see him succeed a bit in spring training and when I feel comfortable that an early season struggle won't cost him his job, I may increase his projection.
