Atkins will have to play first base: The Orioles' addition of Miguel Tejada to play third base means newcomer Garrett Atkins will spend most his time in the field at first base. Atkins, signed as a free agent in December, can also play third. "The plan is for me to play first, depending on who else they sign," Atkins said at FanFest, a function at the Baltimore Convention Center designed to connect team officials and players with fans.

Fantasy Analysis
For this year, Atkins will retain eligibility at third base in most Fantasy leagues, so this news doesn't affect his value too much. In the future, though, it obviously will -- first base is by far the deepest position in Fantasy. To have any value, whether at first or third base, Atkins will have to have a bounce-back season at the plate. He has a long road back to respectability and no longer has the advantage of playing half his games at Coors Field, but at least he should get everyday at-bats again. He's no more than a late-round flier in mixed leagues.
