Best Pick: Matt Carpenter
Carpenter was the sixth third baseman off the board, but defining him as a third baseman only undersells his value. Carpenter qualifies at first base (45 games), second base (40 games), and third base (54 games), giving you a pretty high level of roster flexibility.
Due to missing time with an oblique injury last year, Carpenter's first half is going widely overlooked, but he was in the top 10 in OPS over that time frame. Going 47th overall in this mock could provide first- or second-round value at quite a discount.
