This fantasy baseball season promises to bring excitement as we try to predict the next breakout MLB sleeper candidate. Here is a rankings breakdown of the top ten 2010 Fantasy Baseball first baseman with a sleeper pick added.
2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 10 First Baseman (1B)
#1 2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings 1B: Albert Puljos � St. Louis Cardinals
Albert Puljos is not only the best fantasy baseball first baseman, he is the the best MLB player. He hit 47 home runs and 135 RBI's and had a .327 batting average to go with it. He does it all for your team and is a must take with the first overall pick in any 2010 fantasy baseball draft.
#2 2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings 1B: Miguel Cabrera- Detroit Tigers
Miguel Cabrera is a similar type of player to Albert Puljos with slightly less power. Cabrera hit 34 home runs and had 104 RBI's in 2009 while maintaining a .324 batting average. He will not steal many bases but should lead your 2010 fantasy baseball team in several other categories.
#3 2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings 1B: Mark Teixeira- New York Yankees
Teixeira is a top fantasy baseball first baseman but can be very streaky. He often is a slow starter and this can be very frustrating for a fantasy owner. Grab him and know that his numbers will be there by the end of the season. Teixeira hit 39 home runs and had 122 RBI's in his first season with the Yankees.
#4 2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings 1B: Ryan Howard- Philadelphia Phillies
Ryan Howard will strikeout a lot but that is a small price to pay for all of the power you get by drafting him. Howard is a top 5 fantasy baseball first baseman because of his awesome power numbers. Howard hit 45 home runs and had 141 RBI's in 2009.
#5 2010 Fantasy Baseball Rankings 1B: Prince Fielder- Milwaukee Brewers
Prince Fielder improved his batting average in 2009 to hit .299 while keeping great power numbers. This is a great sign that Fielder could be taking that step to become one of the elite players in fantasy baseball. Draft him on your team in 2010 and you could get numbers comparable to Albert Puljos.
