Will Rhymes

After a rash of injuries hit the Tigers' middle infield last season, Rhymes was a surprise spark to the team late in the year. The diminutive (5-foot-9, 155-pound) second baseman hit .304 with 19 RBI and 30 runs in 191 at-bats with Detroit. Rhymes doesn't pack much power, but he has shown the ability to swipe his fair share of bags with 125 steals in 655 minor league games. Despite his late-season success, Rhymes could be forced to battle for an Opening Day roster spot in spring training. With Carlos Guillen and Scott Sizemore also in the mix at second base, Rhymes will have his hands full trying to carve out a big enough role to contribute in most formats. AL-only and deep leagues should consider Rhymes a decent batting average play and a sleeper for steals, but his playing time will likely be too limited to be a steady contributor in shallower formats.
