| For all the talent the Royals have brought up to the majors (or traded away) in recent years, they still haven't come up with anyone better than Chris Getz to man second base. And so, the 29-year-old is poised to begin his fourth straight season as the team's primary option at the position. He'll face a challenge from Johnny Giavotella, whose minor-league numbers suggest he should get the better of Getz, but so far at the major-league level, Getz has outshined him. That's saying something. Between injuries to his ribs, leg and thumb, Getz managed to hit .275 with a .672 OPS in 2012 -- both highs for a season in which he had at least 100 at-bats -- but chances are no Fantasy owners noticed or cared. If Getz remains the de facto starter all year, he'll contribute somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 stolen bases, but with little else to show for his starting role, he's irrelevant outside of deeper Rotisserie leagues.
