NL-Only League Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Top 375 for March Drafts

Freddie Freeman - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, MLB News

The top 350 NL-Only fantasy baseball rankings and tiers. National League tiered rankings for C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, SP, RP, DH.

Hey, RotoBallers! We are back with more fantasy baseball rankings. The fantasy baseball offseason is in full swing, and we will constantly update rankings and articles until Opening Day. We recently published our AL-Only rankings article; now it's time to focus on the National League. For fantasy managers who still play in these old-school formats, we've got you covered with our 2024 NL-Only fantasy baseball roto rankings. These rankings cover both hitters and pitchers in the National 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. While fantasy managers can't draft star players from loaded American League teams such as the Rangers, Astros, Mariners, Orioles, and Yankees. National League superstars such as Ronald Acuna Jr.Corbin Carroll, Freddie Freeman, and Shohei Ohtani will be available to select in this format.

The rankings below are specifically designed for traditional NL-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 draft tools and resources:
