It should be noted in this series that players are listed at their primary position. Sometimes that can get hairy because a number of players have multiple position flexibility. That has a dramatic impact on their draft stock and that isn’t necessarily reflected in the positional rankings. Third base and

The second base position brings us to a bit of controversy. As everyone knows, the sign stealing scandal has dominated the offseason and that is nowhere more true than here in Houston. No one is really busting down any doors to select Martin Maldonado for their fantasy team and the

As the World Series nears its conclusion, it is a good time to start tieying the bow on the 2019 season. We are ranking the top 15 players at each position according to six categories, total points, and total points per game. We will use all of them to come

The offseason is almost underway. All that is left is for two of the best pitching staffs in recent baseball history to go head to head in the World Series. Before free agency and trade season gets underway, we will take a look at the season that just passed and
