MLB Power Rankings: 20 Players Due for a Harsh Wake-Up Call

Ladies and gentlemen, the calendar has turned to March and that means that spring training is well underway and the start of the 2011 Major League Baseball season is just weeks away. It's the best time of the year, forget football and all those other sports, baseball is where it's at.

With a new year comes new and in some cases renewed optimism. Whether or not your favorite team is able to put together a great year is irrelevant right now because everyone believes that they have a chance, they just need one or two things to go right for that to happen.

What we are doing today is a power ranking. Not a traditional power ranking of teams, but a power ranking of some players. Specifically, players who have underachieved or been in some trouble off the field and are in need of some kind of wake-up call.

Almost every team has at least one player like that, but we are going to look at the top 20 players that are due for a harsh wake-up call, as we have defined it.

So without further ado, here are the 20 players in need of that call.
