1) Evan Longoria, Tampa Bay Rays
Only in his second year, Evan Longoria is quickly making a case for being the best third baseman in all of fantasy baseball. He already has 34 RBI, 21 runs and eight homers on the season.

2) Michael Young, Texas Rangers
Prior to the season, Michael Young didn’t sound too happy about moving over to third base. Now that he’s playing at the hot corner, his bat is also hotter than expected.

3) Brandon Inge, Detroit Tigers
Inge plays all over the field for the Tigers — from third base to the outfield to catcher. Not only has he been useful in the field, he’s been a monster at the plate this year, too.

4) Ryan Zimmerman, Washington Nationals
Earlier in the season, the Nationals gave Zimmerman a hefty contract extension. With his play so far this year, he’s showing why he is the best thing going for Washington.

5) Mike Lowell, Boston Red Sox
Some scouts thought Lowell could fall off this year but 2009 has started off well for the veteran third baseman. His 26 RBIs at the position only trail Longoria.
