Here are the third base rankings. They came out pretty heavily tilted to high school players, at least towards the top. Before the next rankings come out, I am going to look at the criteria that I am using to see if college players are being undervalued. Let me know what you think. Any fair points will be taken into account when the next rankings are formulated.
