Jane Lee of MLB.com believes that Nick Punto could be the Athletics starting second baseman to begin the 2014 season. Of course with the versatility that manager Bob Melvin has on his team, it will likely end up being a platoon situation with Eric Sogard and Alberto Callaspo also in the mix to draw starts there. Given the current situation, it's unlikely that any of the trio will have significant fantasy value in mixed leagues.
