Your outfield is stacked. You make sure to pick up a catcher early, pick up a hard-hitting first baseman, and - oh no - all of the decent second basemen are gone.

But it's also true that there is plenty of talent - and many potential breakout c[...]Keep on reading: Top Five Second Base Sleepers for 2015: Hitters Who Will Outperform Their ADP
