Spring training is just around the corner and with it comes all the expectations of a fresh start for all 30 MLB teams. Right now every team is full of optimism, believing that they have a chance to compete if one or two things work out right.
Next year will be a great season for baseball.
There is the new four-headed pitching monster in Philadelphia. The Red Sox look like the favorites in the American League right now with all of their moves. Then there are teams that will be good but no one talks about for one reason or another, like the defending champion San Francisco Giants.
We have an idea who the great teams will be, but who will the best players be next year?
There are the usual guys like Albert Pujols and Joe Mauer, but there will be a number of guys who will have big years next year.
Here are the guys who will be the top 25 players in Major League Baseball in 2011.
Rankings will be based on expected performance and value relative to position. For example, a guy like Troy Tulowitzki will be higher than a guy like Mark Teixeira because he is playing a premium position.
