Bronze - 84% ownership and below. The following players are the top 10 ranked 3rd baseman within each of these categories according to their percentage of ownership in fantasy leagues across America for the last two MLB seasons:
Gold Tier
1) Miguel Cabrera2) Adrian Beltre
Silver Tier
3) Evan Longoria4) David Wright
5) Ryan Zimmerman
Bronze Tier
6) Josh Donaldson7) Manny Machado
8) Matt Carpenter
9) Pedro Alvarez
10) Brett Lawrie
While many other 3rd baseman could have made the "Bronze Tier", I elected not to include them because they are frankly not even worth discussing by the proverbial office water cooler. Check in tomorrow for my top 10 catchers.
Using this logic, if 95% of the people were jumping out of windows...

DeleteAdrian Beltre being in the top two is not in dispute - let's face it, only a fool who has never watched a baseball game or never played in a competitive fantasy league would argue that - but your list shows me how thin the 3B slot actually is. When I was younger third base was stacked power position. Then again, when I was younger you could smoke a Kool superlong in the clothing store as you picked out a dynamite pair of zang bell bottoms to go with your polyester pastel brown butterfly collar button shirt.
