Fantasy Baseball Third Base Rankings - 2023 Points Leagues: Bobby Witt Jr., Matt Chapman, Jordan Walker, Ke'Bryan Hayes

Ke'Bryan Hayes fantasy baseball rankings draft sleepers MLB injury news

Our 2023 fantasy baseball third base rankings for points leagues and H2H points scoring as of March 7, 2023. Use our third base rankings, tiers, and analysis to win your fantasy baseball drafts.

RotoBaller is constantly working to try and bring fantasy baseball managers the best advice, especially during draft season. A big part of that includes regular updates to our tiered rankings for all formats. In this article, you will find our updated fantasy baseball third base rankings for points leagues as of March 7.

In this article below, we will be taking a look at our third base rankings list put together by RotoBaller's lead fantasy baseball points analyst, Nicklaus Gaut. Third base has a few elite options with Jose Ramirez leading the way; then the position quickly tails off after the top 10. Some established options exist, such as Manny Machado, Nolan Arenado, Rafael Devers, Austin Riley, and Alex Bregman. Fantasy managers might need to address third base early on in their drafts. We're here to help sort it out with our 2023 fantasy baseball rankings. Let's see where key third basemen like Bobby Witt Jr., Matt Chapman, Jordan Walker, Gunnar Henderson, and Ke'Bryan Hayes rank, among others.

Our team here at RotoBaller HQ has been hard at work all offseason putting together our 2023 Fantasy Baseball Draft Kit and all sorts of fantasy baseball rankings for different formats. We're also writing fresh daily articles analyzing this year's fantasy baseball sleepers, breakouts, and so much more. You can also find our other draft rankings for all league formats, continually updated throughout the preseason, in our main fantasy baseball Rankings Wizard tool.

Fantasy Baseball Third Base Rankings- Points Leagues

These rankings are for points and head-to-head points leagues. You can also see our roto fantasy baseball rankings.

Before we get to the rankings, let's quickly review points leagues and how they differ from other formats. Typically, points leagues have different league settings and scoring formats than other fantasy baseball leagues. Different MLB stats and categories are assigned different point values, which can vary by individual league settings. Those different point buckets are then added up over the course of a scoring period or season.

In many cases, hitters who walk more and strike out less are preferred for points leagues. Also, many league formats tend to give more weight to pitchers than normal, as they can easily accrue points through categories like Innings Pitched. These are the general frameworks that we use for our points league rankings below, and explain why they look different than more standard 5x5 roto fantasy baseball rankings.
