2018 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Third Base (Part 1)

MLB: Arizona Diamondbacks at Chicago Cubs Aaron Doster-USA TODAY Sports

Earlier this morning the state of the position for third base dropped. Get ready for some hot corner action all week long, right here at Fake Teams. In case you missed out, below are links to our rankings from previous positional weeks:

Catcher

First Base

Second Base

Shortstop

One caveat before we jump in: Freddie Freeman will be found among our third base rankings, as he logged 16 games there in 2017 and should retain that eligibility on most sites. On the flip side, Brandon Drury is not among the rankings, even though he should achieve third base eligibility soon into the season. All righty, moving on. Feel free to haggle away in the comments and let us know who you’d like to hear about during third base week. Peace!
