We break down Fantasy Baseball's MVPs of 2007 by position with the "All-Emack Team". These aren't simply the best players at each position, but the player who provided the best bang for the Draft Day buck.

Alex Rodriguez was easily the CBSSports.com top Fantasy hitter of the year and Jake Peavy was our top pitcher, as designated in October by our David Gonos. Also, last week we unveiled the All-Rookie Fantasy Team.

Note: Position eligibility was based on their primary position going into last year and included any position eligibility a player gained during the season (five-game requirement). And all references to draft position and scoring is based on CBSSports.com Draft Averages and scoring in our standard scoring system.

The 2007 All-Emack Fantasy Team
POS Player, TM Rotisserie stats
C Russell Martin, LAD .293 AVG, 19 HR, 87 RBI, 87 R, 21 SB
Drafted, on average, eighth at catcher and finished a close third in scoring.
Honorable mention: Bengie Molina, SF (Drafted: 21st at C; Finished: 5th at C)
Bust of the Year: Michael Barrett, CHC/SD (Drafted: 7th at C; Finished: 26th at C).
1B Prince Fielder, MIL .288-50-119-109-2
Eleven 1Bs were drafted before him, but only Albert Pujols was better.
HM: Carlos Pena, TB (Drafted: Not drafted; Finished: No. 4 at 1B)
Bust: Carlos Delgado (Drafted: 10th at 1B; Finished: 20th at 1B)
2B Brandon Phillips, CIN .288-30-94-107-32
Drafted 10th at second base, but only Chase Utley was better.
HM: Dustin Pedroia, BOS (Drafted: 27th at 2B; Finished: 10th at 2B)
Bust: Felipe Lopez, WAS (Drafted: 5th at 2B; Finished: 22nd at 2B)
3B Alex Rodriguez, NYY .314-54-156-143-24

HM: Ryan Braun (Drafted: Not drafted; Finished: 10th at 3B)
Bust: Chad Tracy, ARI (Drafted: 9th at 3B; Finished: 39th at 3B)
SS J.J. Hardy, MIL .277-26-80-89-2

HM: Troy Tulowitzki, COL (Drafted: 17th at SS; Finished: 8th at SS)
Bust: Bobby Crosby, OAK (Drafted: 15th at SS; Finished: 35th at SS)
OF1 Magglio Ordonez, DET .363-28-139-117-4
Easily finished No. 1 among OFs after being drafted 28th at the position.
OF2 Alex Rios, TOR .297-24-85-114-17
One-time elite prospect found himself and now looks like a top 10 outfielder.
OF3 Matt Holliday, COL .339-36-137-120-11
He was already very good, but at age 27 he became a Round 1 superstar.
HM: Eric Byrnes, ARI (Drafted: 51st; Finished: 7th at OF)
Bust: Andruw Jones, ATL (Drafted: 7th at OF; Finished: 41st at OF)
DH Carlos Pena, TB .282-46-121-99-1
Not a full-time DH, but he wins top honor for waiver claim of the year.
SP1 Jake Peavy, SD 19-6, 2.54 ERA, 240 K, 1.061 WHIP
So clearly Fantasy's top SP, it was easy to name him ace of this staff.
SP2 Fausto Carmona, CLE (19-8)-3.06-137-1.209
A top prospect, yes, but no one could have predicted this breakout.
SP3 Erik Bedard, BAL (13-5)-3.17-221-1.088
Season ended due to oblique strain, but nice return on 44th drafted P.
SP4 Javier Vazquez, CHW (15-8)-3.74-213-1.140
Only 10 SPs outscored the 75th drafted P in our Fantasy leagues.
SP5 C.C. Sabathia, CLE (19-7)-3.21-209-1.141
A distant second to Peavy at position, but he was drafted far later.
HM: James Shields, TB (Drafted: 104th at SP; Finished: 32nd at SP)
Bust: Chris Carpenter, STL (Drafted: 2nd at SP; Finished: Made one start)
CL Francisco Cordero, MIL (0-4)-2.98-86-1.105-44 Saves
Someone who had arguably a career year heading into free agency.
HM: Takashi Saito, LAD (Drafted: 13th at CL; Finished: 4th at CL)
Bust: B.J. Ryan, TOR (Drafted: 5th at CL; Finished: With -5.8 Fantasy points)
