A Rod: One of the most prolific power hitters of all time and put up monster numbers to start the season, but the production hasn't been the same lately. Despite that, he is the best 3rd baseman in the league today.M. Cabrera: .318-31-114, his averages over his first three full seasons. And he just turned 25.
D. Wright: .303-28-108 are his 162 game averages in just over 2 1/2 seasons. And he a little younger than Cabrera and better defensively.
C. Jones: It's tough to find someone more consistent than him. You can pencil him in year after year for at least .300-30-100. And he's having one of his best years so far.
A. Ramirez: He kinda flies under the radar with the other high profile 3rd baseman, but he deserves to be mentioned with the best. He won't have as high of a BA but can equal their run production (30+ HR, 100+ RBI)
A couple years away
Garrett Atkins: He had a great year last year, but has struggled so far this year. The Rockies don't get a lot of coverage so I haven't seen him that much, but the scouts really like this guy. They say he has one of the best swings in the majors and expect him to finish around .300 with 25+ HR
Alex Gordon: Big disappointment so far this year, but he is immensely talented. In his only minor league season he hit .325-29-205 in a 130 game season.
If I were to build a team around one of these players it would be between Cabrera and Wright. You really couldn't go wrong choosing just one because they are both young, talented and marketable. I give Cabrera the slight edge offensively. Wright on the other hand can affect a game with both his defense and offense which is why I would choose him.
Cubs or cards who will win this weekend?
i think that A-rod is prolly the best right now because of his homeruns and RBI's even tho he has slowed down he is still doing well this season. he also plays decent defensive.What song does Brett Myers com out to now that he is closing?
Actually, David Wright is the best. I don't care what anyone else thinks, he's awesome. You can tell me "oh, he's in a really bad slump," and that's just a lie. He is the best third baseman in the major leagues...he's "da bomb!"How many games will the Indians win this year?
I would say Alex Rodriguez, but he's a shortstop who's stuck playing third because the inferior defensive shortstop adjacent to him just so happens to be a prince of the city. With Rodriguez off the table, I'd have to say Miguel Cabrera.Are the Braves going to win the National League East?
This is a hard question, and it depends. If you want long-term value, I'd have to say Miguel Cabrera. In production, it is Alex Rodriguez. I'm guessing you mean all around.1. Alex Rodriguez-very productive, hits for power and average, steals bases, not ancient, hall of famer
2. Miguel Cabrera-young and productive, rbi machine, has power and hits for average, not overwhelming 50 homer guy though, and a bit out of shape
3. David Wright-young and productive, power and average, sometimes inconsistent where he'll have great weeks and bad ones
4/5. Aramis Ramirez/Chipper Jones-both are aging but are still productive and hit homers
a rod is could be the best ball player ever he's definitely a hall of famer david wright and all other's have to do many thing for many year's to get a mention of being a hall of famer ask your self this if your were building a team who would you pick for your 3'd baseman?

Thats a very hard answer, because A-rod is putting up big offensive numbers, but he has never been a steller defensive 3rd baseman, but david wright does put up some offensive numbers, and is reliable on defense, this might not be much help, but i must say they are even, but i would hint toward wright because im a R sox fanWho is the best pitcher in baseball this year?
It's obviously Chone "The Chode of Anaheim" Figgins...have you seen that batting average?Why in the world was Russell Branyan SD 3B, OF demoted to AAA?
Aramis Ramirez is hot right now with the bat hes doin great hes an all aroud player hes had 11 hr this seasons with 6 doubles and 2 triples the season hasnt even reached the all star break yet look at him.hes also a great guy ive met him before gotten his autograph hes friendly and is hard to really upseteasily...David Wright is one of the best 3bmen in the leauge, n he will conitnue to get better. A-rod is good at thr position, offensively hes tearin every1 up, but defensively, i mean the guy could've benn the best ss ever, but the yankees couldn't relinquish derewk jeters spot up. A-rod is still a great layer. Then there is aramis ramirez of the cubs, bcuz hes an rbi kind of guy, but if ur gonna do it by leauge, then one of the best, if not slowest in the N.L. has to be miguel cabrera, n hes been doin it for almost 5 yrs, so theres potential htere.
Will anyone honor Barry (STEROID) Bonds if he gets the Home Run record?
It's hard for me to over look guys that have been consistent year in and year out with solid numbers across the board. And for that reason alone I have to say A-Rod #1, Miguel Cabrera #2, and David Wright #3.David Wright is nice no doubt but he has to earn the #1 spot and that can't be done over two years of stats.

What happened to Keith Van Horn.?
The question is best 3 bagger right now.BRANDON INGE. He talked crap on the Redbirds before there inter-league series, and backed it up with the glove and stick. Over the long haul he's obviously not it, but for RIGHT NOW.

Right now it's A-Rod. He's been on fire w/the bat. I like David Wright a lot, a real up and coming player who will be a star for many years to come. Miguel Cabrera is THE BOMB too. If I was starting a team from scratch, I'd have to take CAbrera. He's hasn't reached his prime years (27-31) yet. Someone said Aramis Ramirez is getting old like Chipper Jones? Obviously that person just thinks Aramis has been around forever. But he's only 28 years old, which isn't 'old' by any means. Chipper is getting up there, but not Aramis.Right now i think A-rod of the yankees because he is leading the legue in homeruns and RBI's i think. He also only has 4 error's this year and has won the golden glove award twice. He also has a strong arm and hit's homeruns in key situatuons.
If Johan Santana does not win the 2007 AL Cy Young, who will?

5. Aramis Ramirez
At the corners, it's all about the bat. Defensive specialists belong in the middle of the infield. Chavez is good with the glove, but he's hitting what? .240?
If Babe Ruth drank beer during prohibition, would that be like Bonds taking steroids if he did?
As far as offense goes (and much as I hate to say nice things about any Yankee), it's hard to beat A-Rod's numbers right now. On defense, it's a bit harder to say - Jose Bautista of the Pirates has the best defensive stats so far this year, but since it's his first year at the position it's too early to say if that's a fluke or not.Did it ever happen in baseball history where a pitcher lost a no-hitter?
Eric Chavez,because he's pretty quick,great catcher,and he's pretty consistent.You are starting a team and you can only pick 1 player from each group.?
Aramis RamirezHe bats for average (around .300 the past 4 years)
Hits home runs (over 30 the past 3 years)
Doesn't strike out much (less than 70 the past 6 years)
His defense is much improved and deserves a gold glove.
A-Rod - hits home runs, good average, lots of RBIs but strikes out alot (over 120 the past 7 years) and not a great defensive player.
David Wright - younger the than the previous two.
hits for average (around .300 each year) good for 25-30 home runs each year. also hits a lot of doubles. strikes out alot and not a great defensive player (60 errors in 3+ full seasons)
Bonds end his career as a yankee?!?!?!?
