Who's the best shortstop in the major league's today? We may not be able to answer that question today, but from a fantasy standpoint, it looks like we may be close.

Even after missing significant time due to injury the past few seasons, Troy Tulowitzki leads all shortstops in the composite rankings, but many owners may stay away from him this season, and instead, take a chance on Ramirez or Reyes.

To be honest, Reyes and the Jays are in store for a pretty special season, so Reyes looks to be the pick here.

To date, we've covered the catchers, first baseman, second baseman and third baseman.

Now we take a look at the shortstops:
