This week at Harper Wallbanger, I'm sorting through the Big Board for 12-team 5x5 leagues to find the must-draft and must-avoid players at each position. Continuing around the horn, here's second base!

STATE OF THE POSITION

2B is home to a few young exciting players at the top (Altuve, Turner, Odor) as well as a ton of 30+ year olds in the middle rounds (Kipnis, Kinsler, Pedroia, etc.). The real winners and losers of this position might actually be decided by which of the old men end up hurt. But keep in mind that the easily-projected, reliable type guys on your roster are also the ones that allow you to take risks at other spots. Below I've got two low-risk guys that fit that profile well, as well as one guy that used to be the standard-bearer for reliability, but now might be getting pushed to part-time work by more exciting youngsters.
