And the results are fantastic so far.<br /><br />According to Fangraphs, Panik is tied for 13th in MLB WAR (all positions). He's 5th in defense and 3rd in offense for 2B, making him extremely well-rounded and is, consequently, tied for second in WAR for 2B. Plus, for the cherry on the Sundae, he's already made his first All-Star team despite having less than 162 games of MLB experience. <br /><br />Not bad for a guy who was considered a 'reach' by the 'draft experts' and doomed to a life of a 'utility infielder.'
