Latest News
Alvarez's first pro season produced the fruits expected of the widely acclaimed best hitter in the 2008 First Year Player Draft. Alvarez took a while to sign and then contested the contract after signing it, but he combined to hit .288 with 27 homers, 95 RBI, 80 runs, two steals, a .378 on-base percentage and a .535 slugging percentage in 465 at-bats between low Class A and Double-A. His numbers in the second level, though, really took off in the second half, when he went .370-9-31-30-1, .469-.618. There doesn't appear to be any reason to think Alvarez, a Vandy star and former teammate of David Price, won't be a top five Fantasy third baseman for years to come. Andy LaRoche will open the season as the Pirates' starter there, but Alvarez will take over midseason and never look back. Alvarez is a must-have in NL-only and long-term keeper leagues even while biding time in Triple-A this April. (Updated 1/21/10)
