Fantasy baseball shortstop rankings: Bobby Witt Jr. leads elite crop

Shortstop is where the most talented players in the majors most frequently reside. And the position is loaded this season, with several intriguing prospects on the way. With his five-category excellence and his pristine health history, Bobby Witt Jr. is the No. 1 overall player in fantasy for 2025. His value is even more pronounced in American League-only formats, with only Gunnar Henderson in his stratosphere. Corey Seager has missed chunks of the past two seasons with injuries, but still hit at least 30 homers both times. Also, the Angels' Zach Neto (23 HR, 30 SB in 2024) and Rays newcomer Ha-Seong Kim are coming off shoulder surgeries. In the National League, Elly De La Cruz offers a tantalizing package of raw power and an MLB-leading 67 stolen bases. Veterans Mookie Betts, Francisco Lindor and Trea Turner remain elite talents, with considerably less risk. Willy Adames is coming off a career year (32 HR, 112 RBI, 21 SB), but now plays in pitcher-friendly San Francisco. If you're looking to address a particular category, CJ Abrams (stolen bases), Ezequiel Tovar (home runs) and Xavier Edwards (batting average) can help.

Fantasy baseball first base rankings: Sluggers Harper, Guerrero lead the way

Hear this story 2024 was a down year overall at first base, with several stalwarts taking a step backwards. One who did stand out though is Toronto's Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and sets the pace in the American League. But will failed contract extension talks with the Blue Jays this offseason carry over onto the field? New arrival Christian Walker will take aim at the Crawford Boxes in Houston, as will Cody Bellinger with the short porch in Yankee Stadium. Bellinger and another former NL MVP, Paul Goldschmidt, joined the defending AL champs this offseason to help fill the void left by Juan Soto's departure. The AL East also boasts potential value picks Triston Casas and Ryan Mountcastle. In the National League, Bryce Harper gets the nod as the top overall first baseman. He's just ahead of Freddie Freeman, who's coming off ankle surgery, and Matt Olson, who regressed considerably from his stellar 2023 numbers. Returning to the Mets was the best thing that could happen to Pete Alonso's fantasy value, especially with Soto now hitting in front of him. Recently traded Josh Naylor joins last season's most prolific offense in Arizona and is a good bet for a second consecutive 100-RBI season. However, depth in the NL falls off sharply after those first five. 2025 fantasy baseball first base rankings Eligibility based on a minimum of 20 games played at the position in 2024.
