Top 300 Fantasy Baseball Draft Rankings: AL-Only Leagues (February 2024 Update)

Julio Rodriguez - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB DFS Picks, Betting Picks

RotoBaller's roto fantasy baseball rankings, tiers for 5x5 AL-Only league drafts (February 2024 update). American League tiered rankings for C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, SP, RP, DH.

Welcome back to more fantasy baseball rankings! It's an exciting time for baseball fans as spring training begins and Opening Day is around the corner. For fantasy managers who still play in old-school leagues such as AL-Only or NL-Only formats, we've got you covered. Today, we will look at our 2024 AL-Only fantasy baseball roto rankings. These rankings cover both hitters and pitchers in the American League only.  

Even though interleague play was integrated into the MLB in 1997, plenty of fantasy managers play in either American League-Only or National League-Only leagues. In AL-Only leagues, managers will not benefit from drafting the top overall player in fantasy baseball, Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. Despite not having Acuna, there is still plenty of fantasy goodness to go around in the American League.

The rankings below are specifically designed for traditional AL-Only Leagues (click here for mixed 5x5 roto leagues, points leagues, dynasty leagues, and prospect rankings). We also have many other tools and resources to help you win in 2024. We've worked hard to keep track of all off-season moves to get you covered for your fantasy baseball drafts with our 2024 Fantasy Baseball Draft Kit. It includes various fantasy baseball tools and exclusive articles/projections for different formats. We're also writing fresh daily articles analyzing this year's fantasy baseball sleepersbreakouts, and so much more. Win more in 2024!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup tools and resources:
