Outfielder Rankings

I totally forgot I had these posts to do, and because I'm lacking in ideas and inspiration to update this thing. I'll keep doing the "postseason" rankings. Outfielders are next, and obviously, I have expanded the size of the list to deal with mas players.

AL
1) Manny Ramirez, Bos - Despire whether or not I'd trade him for Matt Cain(IRL, BTW), Manny is still a top five hitter in the AL.
2) Carl Crawford, TB - I'm still not much of a believer, but he runs at an incredible clip, making him one of the few reliable players that's allowed to steal at will. While I'm not sure I'd personally take him in the first round, he's a definite 2nd round pick.
3) Grady Sizemore, Cle - I originally had Carlos Lee here, but since he's not in the AL and I was going to move Grady up regardless I took him out. Sizemore is probably a top 10 pick if he improves on what he did last year.
4) Vladimir Guerrero, Ana
5) Ichiro Suzuki, Sea
6) Gary Sheffield, Det
7) Vernon Wells, Tor
8) Nick Markakis, Bal
9) Jermaine Dye, ChW - I originally had Dye at 16, and call it blind faith, but I really think he's good. He won't come close to what he did last year, but that was so out of the blue and totally unexpected that I really have no idea what he'll do. If he stays healthy I really think he could be a good 2nd outfielder for a team.
10) Hideki Matsui, NYY
11) Johnny Damon, NYY
12) Rocco Baldelli, TB
13) Bobby Abreu, NYY
14) Delmon Young, TB - He really needs to improve on that patience before I can consider him anything. You can't survive in the majors with a 1/5 bb/k. While I think he's a better hitter than Francoeur, major league pitchers will figure him out.
15) Raul Ibanez, Sea
16) Chone Figgins, Ana - Probably better than 16th because he actually does run, and if he goes to a team with an offense like the White Sox he could top 120 runs, but I just don't target speed in the draft which is why he falls.
17) Nick Swisher, Oak
18) Michael Cuddyer, Min
19) Jason Kubel, Min - If only because he was great in the minors.
20) Ryan Sweeney, Chw - Because I had to take out Carlos Lee and can't think of another outfielder right now. How about Craig Monroe? He's got that big ol' swing.

NL
1) Carlos Beltran, NYM
2) Lance Berkman, Hou
3) Alfonso Soriano, ChC - The newest addition to the Chicago Cubs. Don't expect anything besides a slight drop-off in his numbers. Piniella will let him run when he wants, and because Ronny Cedeno is terrible and Izturis is walking glass, DeRosa might be moved to short and Soriano could, and I stress it for a reason, see time at second. Consider it highly unlikely. Still a great talent, he just doesn't have the skill set I prefer to see in a player for me to consider him great.
4) Jason Bay - The complete opposite of Soriano; patient. Yet, Bay failed to perform at the levels set by everyone going into last year. The next Bobby Abreu everyone said. I think he'll have a great year next year, he just might not possess the speed he showed in 2005.
5) Matt Holliday, Col
6) Carlos Lee, Hou - Those lame ass bleachers in right field might be frieldly to pull-hitting Lee, but as a friend pointed out, he's never posted a .900 OPS in his career, and if he couldn't in Texas, he probably won't in Houston.
7) Andruw Jones, Atl
8) Adam Dunn, Cin
9) J.D. Drew, ?
10) Andre Ethier, LAD
11) Chris Young, Ari - I'm nearly at tears that I'm not writing with Young as the projected CF for the 2007 White Sox, but such is the life of a Ken Williams-run team. Chris Young could be the lead-off hitter for the Diamondbacks next year, with his tremendous speed (100/120, 83% the last 3 years) and because he can draw a walk. Young had 101 RC in 2005 with 26 HRs and 70 BBs. The downside is that he strikes out a hell of a lot, which public opinion frowns upon....unless you're Alfonso Soriano.
12) Jeremy Hermida, Fla - He's got too incredible a track record to not be an amazing major league player. If he doesn't turn into one, it'll be a huge disappointment and what he is to statistical projections and talent evalutation, what Billy Beane is to "classic baseball scouting." I still think Hermida is going to be an incredible outfielder someday.
13) Pat Burrell, Phi - Bad contracts, anyone?
14) Ken Griffey, Jr - I think I'm kidding. These lists are like two months old.
15) Jim Edmonds, StL - Everyone tells me this guy is still productive, but I just don't see it. You can't play like Aaron Rowand (which I'm not suggesting is a good idea) at 36 years old and expect to stay on the field.
16) Mike Cameron, SD
17) Lastings Milledge
18) Brad Hawpe, Col - Admittedly, we could swap Hawpe and Griffey and it'd look just right. I think Hawpe is good, and his patience suggests he's much better than I give him credit for.
19) Carlos Quentin, Ari
20) Ryan Freel, Cin
