Hello again, fantasy baseball gamers! We are marching through our first pass at each position for 2021, and next up are our top 30 second basemen.
It looks like we’ll be bullish on Ketel Marte, and it also seems like our guy Joe is going to need to make a huge defense for Tommy Edman of St. Louis. Edman is a fine player—especially at his current ADP—but No. 4 among all second basemen? Hot dang!
Mark is single-handedly driving down Dylan Moore, while Garrett is the only other sane person on Whit Merrifield.
Lastly, I can’t believe we have four pundits here assembled, and only one of them (me) put Ozzie Albies at the top of his list. This is a Greek tragedy, one I hope is rectified when the calendar flips to 2021 and we begin positional weeks. Talk some sense into my colleagues in the comments, please.
