August Shortstop Rankings

D.J. Short recaps Day Three of the MLB Winter Meetings, which was dominated by the Dodgers

Here are the August Rankings. Players are ranked for the remainder of the season based on how I believe they’ll perform in 5x5 leagues. Players are also listed at the positions where they’re most valuable, so if you don’t see that third baseman you’re looking for, he’s probably listed at second or short.
