It certainly looks like Beckham is ready to live up to the lofty expectations placed on him. He demonstrated that he could hit big league pitching, he plays in a good hitters' park, and he has a certain path to regular playing time. He should be a target in one-year and keeper leagues alike. .270-85-25-85-10 in 550 AB

Positives / Upside	In his first season, Beckham could have hardly made a better impression. In 103 G with the White Sox, he showed he could hit for power, some average, and even steal a handful of bases. He is primed to build on his partial season with a great full year in 2010. Plus, in moving to 2B, he will gain two-position eligibility, increasing his value. .280-90-28-95-13 in 590 AB
Negatives / Downside	Young players can be unpredictable. Between the building hype and the position switch, there's a risk that it's all a little too much too soon. .260-75-20-75-8 in 500 AB
Recommendation	Go the extra dollar
Draft Position	97
