| Despite losing some power and steals from 2011, last season should be considered a good one for Elvis Andrus, who made gains in doubles (27 in 2011, 31 in 2012) and batting average (.279 in 2011 to .286 in 2012). It wasn't the offensive explosion that many had hoped for after improving on his 2010 numbers the previous season, but Andrus is still just 24 and still has to hit his production peak. One minor concern was his increase in strikeouts, upping them from 74 to 96, but Andrus did make a nice leap in OPS, going from .708 to .727, which may be more indicative of the direction in which he's heading. A skilled player who is two days younger than the actor who played Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter films, Andrus could flirt with top-five-shortstop status in 2013 and should be taken in the early rounds of most drafts.
