RotoBaller is constantly working to try and bring fantasy baseball managers the best advice, especially during draft season. A big part of that includes regular updates to our tiered rankings for all formats. In this article, you will find our updated fantasy baseball catcher rankings for points leagues as of March 5th.
In this article below, we will be taking a look at our catcher rankings list put together by RotoBaller's lead fantasy baseball points analyst Nicklaus Gaut. There are a handful of studs at catcher, but not everyone will have that luxury on draft day. Like tight ends in fantasy football, catchers can be a tough position to find a high number of quality options, especially in formats requiring managers to start two. Let's see where key players like Adley Rutschman, Tyler Stephenson, Keibert Ruiz, Logan O'Hoppe, and Jonah Heim rank.

Fantasy Baseball Catcher Rankings- Points Leagues
These rankings are for points and head-to-head points leagues. You can also see our roto fantasy baseball rankings.
Before we get to the rankings, let's quickly review points leagues and how they differ from other formats. Typically, points leagues have different league settings and scoring formats than other fantasy baseball leagues. Different MLB stats and categories are assigned different point values, which can vary by individual league settings. Those different point buckets are then added up over the course of a scoring period or season.
In many cases, hitters who walk more and strike out less are preferred for points leagues. Also, many league formats tend to give more weight to pitchers than normal, as they can easily accrue points through categories like Innings Pitched. These are the general frameworks that we use for our points league rankings below, and explain why they look different than more standard 5x5 roto fantasy baseball rankings.
