Fantasy: Be sure to get a power hitting first baseman

If you don't have a power-hitting first baseman, you're doing something wrong. It is one of the deepest positions, with Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder, Mark Teixeira, Miguel Cabrera and Ryan Howard likely to be selected in the first round. Fourteen first basemen hit 30 homers in 2009. First base is where you should fill your corner infield spot because of the position's depth.

Breakout

Joey Votto (Reds): Votto missed time with an inner-ear problem and anxiety last season but showed growth. He hit .322 with 25 home runs, 84 RBIs and 82 runs in just 469 at-bats. He hit .329 against lefthanders and had a .977 OPS. He increased his fly ball rate to 39.3 percent and plays in a great hitters ballpark.

Billy Butler (Royals): If you miss out on the elite first basemen, Butler isn't a bad consolation. In the second half, he had a .307 average, 14 homers and 59 RBIs in 332 at-bats. He batted .301 with 21 homers, 93 RBIs, 51 doubles and 78 runs.

Undervalued

Adam LaRoche (Diamondbacks): His first-half and second-half splits are well documented, although it wasn't as stark last season. LaRoche has at least 20 homers in five straight seasons and averaged 26 homers and 86 RBIs the last four seasons. He'll be a bargain for your corner infield spot.

Overvalued

Derrek Lee (Cubs): Lee will be drafted based on last season's stats when he hit .306 with 35 home runs, 111 RBIs, 91 runs and a .972 OPS. There are a few concerns for the 35-year-old. He was bothered by a pinched nerve in his neck and a back injury that limited him to 532 at-bats. He topped 22 home runs for the first time since 2005 when he hit At a deep position, there are better options.

Mark Reynolds (Diamondbacks): The power is legit, but he's not worth a second-round pick. He'll hurt your average with an awful 61 percent contact rate and the stolen bases aren't a given.

Post-hype sleeper

Chris Davis (Rangers): Davis clearly was overvalued last season, and because of his poor contact rate, he is going late in early drafts. He improved his contact rate after being recalled from Triple-A in August. The power will be there. If he can keep the job, 30 home runs is a good bet.
