Baseball is back! With the regular season now less than three weeks away, it is time to start researching players and drafting fantasy teams.

We pulled together the fantasy baseball rankings of 25 experts from 16 different sites, to put together a consensus ranking of the top 100 players for standard, season-long fantasy baseball. The experts represent ESPN, Yahoo Sports, USA Today, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, Fox Sports, Sporting News, Bleacher Report, RotoChamp, Roto Experts, Razzball, Fake Teams, Roto Baller, and The Fake Baseball.

Below, we go into a little more depth for the top 50 players, with the rest of the list found at the bottom. Only rankings that have been updated since the start of spring training have been included.

No. 1 Mike Trout, LAA — OF

Position rank*: 1

Average rank: 1.2

Highest rank: 1

Lowest rank: 2

One thing to know: Trout has seen his stolen bases drop from 49 in 2012 to just 11 last year. However, he says he wants to steal more this season.

* Where the player ranks among players who are eligible at the same position.

No. 2 Bryce Harper, WSH — OF

Position rank: 2

Average rank: 2.5

Highest rank: 1

Lowest rank: 4

One thing to know: Bryce Harper's spring has been pretty ho-hum, but he took Justin Verlander deep twice over the weekend, including one over the batter's eye in center field.

No. 3 Paul Goldschmidt, ARI — 1B

Position rank: 1

Average rank: 2.6

Highest rank: 2

Lowest rank: 4

One thing to know: Goldschmidt had 164 plate appearances with two outs and the bases empty in 2015, the most in MLB. This suggests that he could have an even bigger season this year if given just a little bit more luck, some help, and maybe a new position in the batting order.

With his latest film, "Midnight Special," director Jeff Nichols takes his first step into the studio system after hits in the indie-film world ("Mud,""Take Shelter").

Resembling early Steven Spielberg movies, "Midnight Special" follows a father and his son, who has special powers, as they race from authorities.

Along with strong performances from Michael Shannon, Joel Edgerton, and Adam Driver, the movie is a unique science-fiction tale that brings to mind numerous classics of the genre.

Business Insider spoke to Nichols about the sci-fi movies that inspire him.

"Midnight Special" is currently playing in theaters.

"Close Encounters of the Third Kind" (1977)

Following the sensation of "Jaws," Steven Spielberg made one of the most memorable sci-fi movies of all time, stretching what we thought could be done with visual effects along with providing a touching story front-and-center. It was a movie experience that Nichols has never forgotten.

"The first experience, you're swept up in the moment of the aliens and spaceships," Nichols said. "But then you go back and you look at the film again and you see how Spielberg looks at suburban life in America in the '70s and it was incredible. The accurate representation of the kid's bedrooms and the den, it made the mystery more immediate for me as a kid."

"Starman" (1984)

John Carpenter is known best for his classic films like "Halloween" and "Escape from New York," but one of his lesser-known titles is this intimate tale starring Jeff Bridges as an alien who takes the form of a widow's husband. He and the widow travel to where the Starman will be picked up by his people, though the government attempts to intervene.

"A big experience growing up was trolling through late-night television and that's where I came across 'Starman,'" Nichols said. "I can distinctly remember the first time I saw it. It was in letterbox and just didn't look like anything else on television. The tone of the film, the sincerity of it. I was really struck by it."

"Cloak & Dagger" (1984)

Not all science fiction has to include aliens from another world. Made on the cusp of the home video game craze, "Cloak & Dagger" stars Henry Thomas as Davey, a young boy who loves the world of espionage and whose imaginary friend (played by Dabney Coleman) is the main character of his favorite video game. But he finds himself really on the run from bad guys when he realizes the video game he's carrying is in fact filled with top secrets that could be dangerous if in the wrong hands.

"A big inspiration for 'Midnight Special' was the energy of being a kid in the '80s," Nichols said. "And this movie was so great because I remember carrying a backpack just like Davey, and I would have things in the bag just in case I would have to encounter a group of bad guys like he did. For me that was so much fun."

The first expansion for "Fallout 4" launched on Tuesday. And one of the best features of the "Automatron" expansion (DLC) is the new ability to customize your own robots.

In "Fallout 4," you'll meet many robots during your travels, and a couple of them will even join you as companions. If you bought the "Fallout 4" Season Pass or the $10 "Automatron" DLC, now you can customize those robotic companions or even make your own custom bot from scratch.

Take a look at the crazy robot creations people have already made in "Fallout 4: Automatron:"

Seven months ago, Claudia Telles was making $41,000 a year working for a Chicago-based hospital.

Today, she's at the same institution with a different role — she transitioned from the business-operations team on the academic side of things to being a quality specialist on the hospital side — and receiving a much higher annual salary: $72,000.

How did the 28-year-old make more than a $30,000 leap within the same company?

She played her cards flawlessly when the money conversation surfaced during the interview process. "Negotiation is nerve-racking, especially because you don't do it every day, or even weekly or monthly," she tells Business Insider. "But a five-minute conversation can be an extra $5,000 or $10,000 in your pocket."

We asked Telles for her top tips when it comes to negotiating the compensation you deserve.

SEE ALSO: 7 mistakes too many women make when it's time to negotiate their salary

1. Do your research

Most of the work should happen before you head into the interview, Telles emphasizes.

Start by looking at the salary range for someone with your level of experience and skills and in your industry or company. She used Glassdoor and Payscale to find out that the range for her position maxed out at $75,000, the amount she would eventually ask for. Salary.com and Indeed.com also offer free compensation and benefits information.

This will help you understand what you're worth and keep you from asking for too little or far too much. While you don't want to request too low a salary and leave money on the table, you also don't want to name a number that is well above what the employer had in mind and risk knocking yourself out of the running.

2. Emphasize what the company gains by hiring you

If you've done your homework on the company and the role they're looking to fill, proving your value to the employer should be easy to execute.

While Telles, who has been at the same hospital for three years, didn't need to research the actual company, she got a firm grasp on the job description and expectations of the new position she was applying for. "I was really able to showcase that I knew what was going on and could do the job effectively," she explains. "I told them that for the type of work that needs to get done — and will get done — this is the type of salary that would be appropriate."

If you come prepared to highlight your skills, experience, qualifications, and accomplishments, you can justify what you're asking for.

3. Practice, practice, practice

As personal-finance expert Ramit Sethi says of salary negotiation, "Eighty percent of the work happens before you even enter the room."

In addition to looking up salary ranges, studying the company, and preparing your facts and figures, you want to do mock interviews — over and over and over again. This could mean having a friend or family member ask you probable interview questions or it could mean practicing in front of the mirror.

"I recorded myself to see how my body language was and how my voice sounded," Telles explains. "I practiced not looking up or to the side. I practiced not having 'flying hands.' I made sure I looked confident, that my back was straight, and my posture strong."

As Ivanka Trump, CEO of Ivanka Trump Collection, writes on Motto, "The way in which you carry yourself, even when seated at a desk, matters. Regardless of how fast your heart may be beating, sit upright, make eye contact, and focus on breathing evenly."

Practice and preparation minimizes the risk of fumbling through the conversation when the big day comes. "By the time of the interview, I'd done 50 or so practice rounds and it just came out effortlessly," Telles says.

Like so many of my friends, I fell into — rather than chose — my career path after college.

I’d earned a degree in marketing, which had promised endless opportunities. But then the dot-com bubble burst, leaving me (and the rest of my class) desperately looking for work.

I unexpectedly found myself in an entry-level textile job in fashion, which had definitely not been part of my plan.

I stayed the course for many years, but after almost a decade working in product development, I dared to ask myself: What do I really want to do with my life? I had been at my current company for four years, and it was comfortable.

Life was comfortable. I had a good boss, nice coworkers, and work that was steady. People tended to stay at this company for a while — 15 years, 20 years, 25 years. During one on-site client meeting, I suddenly began to think, "Is this it? This can’t be it. I can’t retire here." Cue my is-this-all-there-is moment of reckoning. It was time to make a move.

I had been freelance writing for a website, but I didn’t really see that as anything more than a fun hobby and a way to pay off debt. But once I realized that I absolutely, without a doubt, had to leave my job, I had an idea. What if I could freelance write for a living? Could I make it? Pay my bills? I began to pick up more and more projects, and one day I realized that if I was going to continue, I had to go all in.

Suddenly I found myself face-to-face with a massive career change at 30. I often cheered gutsy career-changers in movies, but I didn’t know anyone who had pulled it off in real life. So I learned as I went, and these are the six lessons that have stuck with me.

SEE ALSO: The 5 ways you can get a better career without changing jobs

1. Trust your instincts.

It’s difficult to describe, but there’s a deep-down-in-the-gut feeling that tells you when you’re on the right path (even on days when it’s really, really hard). Fleetingly, I once thought I wanted to be a designer, but after taking sketching and sewing classes where I realized I couldn’t sew or draw a straight line, I gave up.

My desire to write was different: It didn’t waver. It was a feeling I simply couldn’t shake. Once I committed to the idea of pursuing a second career as a writer, I voraciously read everything I could on the topic, sought advice from anyone who would talk to me, and figured out how to make it happen — which was as scary as it was exciting.

2. Support might (and might not) come from surprising places.

When I announced my plan to quit and freelance, some of my coworkers scoffed, saying, "So you’re going to ‘write,’ huh?" Some even implied that I was turning my back on our company. My mother panicked over my future and wondered if "temping" was going to be fulfilling (to her, freelancing was a semi-unsavory word).

My then-boyfriend, now husband, was supportive but still concerned, posing concrete questions like, "How will you find more clients?" and "What is your invoice cycle?" As it turned out, my boss at the time was one of the most positive and surprising champions I could have had, saying, "If this is what you want, you have to go for it." Expect a few naysayers, but don’t let them get you down. Rejoice in your allies, whomever they are.

3. Remember how to be feisty.

Just before graduating from college, I sent application after application with unwavering tenacity in the face of no’s and unresponsive recruiters. Once you get comfortable in a career, it’s easy to lose that spark.

But there’s nothing like the uncertainty of freelancing to kick your survival instincts into high gear. I had rent to pay, and if I didn’t maintain a steady stream of work, the paychecks wouldn’t "magically" appear every two weeks like they had before.

The 2020 Tokyo Olympics is poised to be the most futuristic one yet.

We had an inkling that the 2020 games would introduce new, high-tech features when Japan announced they were trialing a driverless taxi service to use in the 2020 Olympic games. But we've recently gotten on input on the different innovations spectators can look forward to in 2020.

Here's 7 high-tech innovations that will appear at the Tokyo Olympics.

Hydrogen cars could transport athletes.

Source: Wall Street Journal

Several automakers are currently investing in hydrogen fuel cells, including Japanese automaker Toyota whose hydrogen car, the Miari, is pictured above.

Hydrogen-powered cars boast a longer range than battery-powered cars, but a lack of infrastructure (hydrogen stations) has led to general skepticism that the technology can catch on. For hydrogen-powered cars to become a reality at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the Japanese government will have to set up hydrogen stations nearby.

Driverless taxis could shuttle tourists around.

As mentioned earlier, Japan is aiming to release robocabs just in time for the Tokyo Olympics to drive tourists around the city.

So far the service is being tested by approximately 50 people using the car to perform basic tasks like going to the grocery store. A company called Robot Taxi is responsible for refitting a Toyota Estima with driverless technology in time for the 2020 games.

Spectators could use electronic passes to get into the stadium.

Japan may take the electronic ticket system a step forward by introducing e-passes.

Called the Wonder Japan Pass, the credit-card like device would provide entry to the stadium and even spectators' hotel. The pass could even be used as a valid ID and payment system, Newsweek reported.

At Disneyland, free items abound. In fact I would say that free and Disneyland go hand in hand (or Mickey Glove in Mickey Glove). There are numerous free experiences and items available at the Disneyland Resort if you know where to look.

This list covers the noteworthy free items scattered throughout the Disneyland Resort beyond the obvious shows and attractions which are all included with the price of admission into the theme parks.

The list is a helpful companion to the popular 18 Disneyland Money-Saving Hacks article and our guide to Disneyland. Enjoy the list and be sure to leave a comment with any other free things at Disneyland you enjoy.

Audi unveiled the new R8 Spyder, an open-top version of its flagship sports car, at a packed event at the New York Auto Show on Wednesday.

The R8 Spyder, which has already made several unintentional appearances being driven across Africa without camouflage, closely matches the design of the also newly-overhauled R8 coupe.

According to Audi, the car shares half of its components with its racing cousin, the R8 LMS, which has already proven itself on the track, winning its class at the Rolex 24 at Daytona this January.

The 5.2 liter V10 develops 540 horsepower at 7,800 RPM and will push the R8 Spyder from 0-62 MPH in 3.6 seconds. Audi also claims the chassis is 50% stiffer than the previous model.

Audi has given no official word of a V10 Plus model which would mirror the existing hard top lineup.

Also making his first appearance at the Audi brand event was new CEO of Audi Sport Stephan Winkelmann, formerly of Lamborghini. Winkelmann spoke very briefly, telling reporters that he would have more to offer once he better settles in to his new position.

We have new data on how Wall Street banks stack up in every business line, and there is one clear winner.

JPMorgan led the pack in 2015 for revenue across fixed income, equities, and banking, according to data-analytics company Coalition.

That bank made $22.7 billion.

It ranked No. 1 by revenues in investment banking, and within that equity-capital markets. It also placed first in fixed income, currencies, and commodities, and within that G10 rates, G10 foreign exchange, and securitization.

Goldman Sachs ranked second overall for the year, placing first in commodities, within the fixed-income, currencies, and commodities division. It also ranked first in cash equities and futures and options, within equities, and in mergers and acquisitions and equity-capital markets, within investment banking.

Citigroup and Bank of America Merrill Lynch tied for third place.

Here's the global ranking, plus the rankings broken down by region:

JPMorgan is the clear winner in the global ranking, with a top score in traditional investment banking and fixed income, currencies, and commodities.

Broken down by region, JPMorgan led the pack in the Americas and Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, with $13 billion and $7 billion in revenues in each region, respectively. In Asia-Pacific, Deutsche Bank ranked first, with $3.3 billion.

Earlier this week, Amazon held a secret, invitation-only event for the machine-learning and robotics community.

Plenty of food and booze ... served on a Kiva, the robots made by Kiva Systems, the company Amazon bought for $775 million. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos was spotted drinking single malt whiskey with some of the attendees.

The name of the event was MARS — Machine learning, home Automation, Robotics and Space exploration. The invitation card said, "Many great humans are attending (not to mention some extraordinary robots)."

There were tons of talks and demos of robots. About 130 people were invited, according to one of the attendees.

Just in time for spring, new convertible models are everywhere at the 2016 New York Auto Show.

And they span just about the entire automotive spectrum; from the punchy little Mazda MX-5 RF to the range-topping, 540 horsepower Audi R8 Spyder.

It's a sign of the times that the most amazing "megacar" on display at the 2016 New York International Auto Show is a plug-in hybrid.

The Koenigsegg Regera is an amazing vehicle. Each of the 80 that the Swedish company will build will cost buyers about $1.9 million. The vehicle features an internal combustion engine that does most of the work at high speeds, as well as three electric engines. Koenigsegg streamlined the system to operate as powerfully, efficiently, and smoothly as possible.

Here's a look at the Regera at the auto show.

First of all, this machine is gorgeous — and had a paint job so pristine it almost looks unreal.

The car gets its company name from Christian Koenigsegg, the boutique auto designer responsible for bringing this monster to life.

Every inch of this machine is gorgeous.

For the 2017 model year, the Porsche Boxster received a new motor, it's been renamed to be the Porsche 718 Boxster, and it's been slightly redesigned to keep its looks fresh and current. It starts at $56,000.

As a fun, extremely quick, responsive, and luxurious summer car, the new 718 Boxster is on top of the game for convertibles.

The car we checked out was the S model.

The 718 Boxster S has 350 horsepower, while the base model has 300 horsepower. That's a pretty decent jump.

The Lava Orange color you see here is a $2,580 special order option.

The taillights and spoiler were slightly redesigned from last year's model.

Over the past few decades, life and business strategist Tony Robbins has become a household name.

His boundless energy, determination and philanthropic nature has made him one of the go-to experts on how to have a fulfilling life and career.

He started from humble beginnings — growing up in a low-income, broken household — but today his net worth is estimated at over $480 million.

In his recent book, "MONEY Master the Game: 7 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom," he interviewed more than 50 major financial experts, including Warren Buffett, Ray Dalio and Steve Forbes, to create a wealth-building blueprint.

The best-selling author’s advice has been featured prominently in magazines, digital media and in national televised media.

He travels all over the country every month for events to inspire people in their lives and in business.

Below are some of his top pieces of advice on how to change your mindset in ways that can have a positive impact on your life and finances.

1. Have a mission

For people who find themselves in a rut, or who are unsure of which steps to take to improve their lives, finding a focus is important. However, it’s equally important to find the right focus for your life.

"Energy comes from having a mission; it comes from something that you’re being pulled by, not something you're pushing on," Robbins told well-known business expert Marie Forleo in a one-on-one interview. "If there’s something that you’re made for, then there’s a level of energy that most people would never dream of ... We all have that, but most of us don't connect to it and unleash it."

Robbins said he lives in this mindset each and every day. In order to apply this to your own life, it’s important to spend time thinking about what you’re really passionate about, whether it’s big or small. The more excited and the more passionate you are about your goals in life, the more powerful you can be.

2. Stop trading time for money

When it comes to walking the path to financial freedom, Robbins frequently talks about the issue of trading time for money. "If you work for a living, you're trading your time for money," he wrote in an article for Entrepreneur magazine.

"Frankly, it's just about the worst trade you’ll ever make in life: You can always get more money, but you can't get more time," he wrote. "In the end, it doesn't matter how much money you earn. If you don't set aside some, you could lose it all ... This is the first and most important step in putting yourself on the road to financial freedom. Take that step today."

In essence, you can’t quit your job today, but you can start saving today. If there is a business you want to start or something you want to spend all your time doing, he advised to start saving now. The more money you save, the faster you can focus on the things you want to spend your time doing.

3. Practice gratitude

This is sometimes an easily overlooked step, especially in difficult times. However, it can have a great positive impact on your life when you follow it.

In his book, "MONEY Master the Game," Robbins quoted Sir John Templeton, whom he called one of "the greatest investors in history." In an interview with marketing expert Lewis Howes, Robbins said Templeton told him: "If you have nothing, but you're euphorically grateful for whatever you have, you're the richest person you're ever going to know."

Robbins said he makes gratitude a part of his morning routine. Every morning, he spends some time thinking of the things in his life that he is grateful for, which helps him start his day. Anyone can start this practice, and the great thing is that it’s simple. To keep things consistent and make this a habit, you can even start a gratitude journal.

Some people spend their day at a desk dreaming of traveling abroad, but not Christy Woodrow.

The 36-year-old started her blog Ordinary Traveler back in 2011 after a six-week vacation to Southeast Asia with her boyfriend. Fast forward to 2016, and Woodrow made six figures last year off of her travel blog.

"The bigger travel blogs are people who quit their jobs and became nomads — you don’t have to do that," Woodrow tells Tech Insider.

At first, she blogged part-time and kept an office job as a financial advisor for businesses. But about three years later, Woodrow was able to quit her job and focus on Ordinary Traveler full-time.

Though she lives with her boyfriend in San Diego, she travels the world, visiting everywhere from Australia to Nepal.

These days, you could be forgiven for thinking that Porsches are just pricey sportscars designed to ferry middle-aged doctors back and forth from their McMansions in the suburbs.  But the German automaker really does have a proud racing tradition, and you can feel it dripping from every inch of the $185,950 2016 Porsche 911 R.

Built with lots of light carbon fiber and featuring a 500-horsepower engine, this car has an incredible power-to-weight ratio.

The whole 2016 Porsche 911 R weighs just over 3,020 pounds.

The base model strips out the speakers and air conditioning to cut down weight — but you can add those back in.

US employees spend, on average, about a quarter of the workweek combing through hundreds of emails.

Despite the fact that we're glued to our reply buttons, career coach Barbara Pachter says plenty of professionals still don't know how to use email appropriately.

Because of the sheer volume of messages we're reading and writing, we may be more prone to making embarrassing errors, and those mistakes can have serious consequences.

Pachter outlines the basics of modern email etiquette in her book "The Essentials Of Business Etiquette." We pulled out the most essential rules you need to know.

Vivian Giang and Rachel Sugar contributed to earlier versions of this article.

Now master your etiquette off-line:  17 business etiquette rules every professional needs to know

1. Include a clear, direct subject line.

Examples of a good subject line include "Meeting date changed,""Quick question about your presentation," or "Suggestions for the proposal."

"People often decide whether to open an email based on the subject line," Pachter says. "Choose one that lets readers know you are addressing their concerns or business issues."

2. Use a professional email address.

If you work for a company, you should use your company email address. But if you use a personal email account — whether you are self-employed or just like using it occasionally for work-related correspondences — you should be careful when choosing that address, Pachter says.

You should always have an email address that conveys your name so that the recipient knows exactly who is sending the email. Never use email addresses (perhaps remnants of your grade-school days) that are not appropriate for use in the workplace, such as "babygirl@..." or "beerlover@..."— no matter how much you love a cold brew.

3. Think twice before hitting 'reply all.'
