Draft season is upon us, and we'll be releasing updated rankings constantly! In this article below, you'll find our MLB team's updated 2023 fantasy baseball second base rankings for roto leagues and tiers for 5x5 mixed roto leagues as of March 19. This is an exciting time of year for MLB and fantasy baseball fans, as the MLB season is getting closer, and a full year of fantasy baseball lies ahead. We're here to ensure you crush your drafts, win your leagues, and earn those bragging rights.
In the past, second base was one of the trickiest positions to fill, but there are plenty of solid options to roster in 2023. Second base has less star power than some of the other positions, as there isn't a single second baseman in the top 25 in RotoBaller's top 300 overall consensus rankings. Jose Altuve was diagnosed with a fractured right thumb and is out 8-10 weeks, leaving now only two second basemen ranked within RotoBaller's top 50. However, fantasy managers can expect useful fantasy production as there is a lot of value to be had at the keystone, with plenty of solid options that are far down the list. We're here to help sort it out with our 2023 fantasy baseball rankings. Let's see where key second basemen like Andres Gimenez, Vaughn Grissom, Jonathan India, Luis Arraez, and CJ Abrams rank, among others.
Our fantasy baseball second base rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Jon Anderson, JB Branson, Connelly Doan, and Ben Rosener. You can also find our other draft rankings for all league formats, continually updated throughout the preseason, in our main fantasy baseball Rankings Wizard tool.
