McLain slashed .290/.357/.507 with 16 home runs, 65 runs, 50 RBI, and 14 steals over 89 games in 2023. Oakland A's second baseman Zack Gelof, also busted onto the scene in his rookie season, slashing .267/.337/.504 with 14 home runs and 14 stolen bases across 69 games. Find out where McLain, Gelof, and other essential fantasy second-base options rank early, such as Spencer SteerIsaac ParedesJonathan India, and Edouard Julien.
