Welcome back, RotoBallers, to more fantasy baseball rankings to help you prepare for your upcoming fantasy drafts. It's never too early to start preparing for fantasy baseball. Today, we will look at our MLB team's early 2024 fantasy baseball catcher rankings and tiers for 5x5 mixed roto leagues. Most NFBC formats require you to start two catchers in your fantasy lineup, while other home leagues usually require just one.
Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman has dethroned Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto as RotoBaller's No.1 ranked catcher. Rutschman broke out last year after slashing .277/.374/.435 with 20 home runs, 80 RBI, and 80 runs over 687 plate appearances in 2023. The catcher position has been historically weak over the years, but there are plenty of values and high-upside fantasy options in 2024. Find out where other key catchers, such as Jonah Heim, Bo Naylor, Francisco Alvarez, Mitch Garver, Logan O'Hoppe, and Luis Campusano, rank early on.
The rankings below are specifically designed for traditional 5x5 Roto Mixed Leagues (click here for points leagues, dynasty leagues, and prospect rankings). We also have many other tools and resources to help you win in 2024. We've worked hard to keep track of all off-season moves to get you covered for your fantasy baseball drafts with our 2024 Fantasy Baseball Draft Kit.
