Fantasy Baseball 2011 Rankings: Outfielders

UPDATE:  Whoops.  Somehow I managed to leave out Colby Rasmus.  I must have made the mistake when I was importing names onto my rankings spreadsheet.  Anyway, thanks for bringing it to my attention.  He comes in at #27 on my rankings.  Carlos Beltran is now out of the Top 50.

I present to you my Top 50 Outfielders for 2011. You may notice that I have a few guys ranked much lower than other experts (e.g. Ichiro), and a few guys ranked much higher (e.g. Drew Stubbs).  This is because I am a genius (among other things).  Rather than doing an individual write-up of each player I thought I’d just post my rankings and projections and then do a question/answer session with you guys on Twitter @fantasynewsman.  Take a look and then tweet me your thoughts.
