An exciting class of shortstops would have included Tatis at the top if he hadn't gotten injured, so Turner takes over at No. 1. He's also the best option at second base. The real hype surrounding the position, however, is Franco, who could rack up serious fantasy points in every category as he starts daily for the Rays. Additionally, owners looking for a late-round steal should keep an eye on Torres and Crawford.
