Two things make 2B a difficult position to assess: One, many players are eligible at other spots, and two, many players offer varied offensive production. Because of this, once you get past the top four or five, you really don’t know when a given 2B-eligible player will go off the board. That’s true of all positions to some extent, but second base seems to be sort of a hub, and because it’s deeper than SS and possibly even 3B this year, many of the players on the list below won’t actually be drafted to play 2B.
