First Base Fantasy Baseball Rankings and Tiers - Roto Leagues (January Updates)

Triston Casas - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

RotoBaller's roto fantasy baseball first base (1B) rankings, tiers for 5x5 mixed league drafts (January 2024 update). MLB tiered rankings for 1B fantasy picks.

Hey RotoBallers, it's an exciting time of the fantasy baseball season as we get closer to the start of Spring Training. A year of fantasy baseball is ahead, and it's never too early to prepare for your upcoming drafts. We are here to help dominate your draft and crush your leagues with our MLB team's early 2024 fantasy baseball first base rankings and tiers for 5x5 mixed roto leagues. First base has plenty of fantasy options for managers searching for power and batting average.

Boston Red Sox slugger Triston Casas is increasingly becoming a trendy fantasy selection. After a slow start to the season, Casas slashed .299/.397/.556 with 18 home runs and 49 RBI over 330 plate appearances since June 1st. The 24-year-old's season ended prematurely due to right shoulder inflammation, but Casas showed promise as Boston's everyday first baseman in 2023. Find out where Casas and other essential fantasy first-base options rank early, such as Nolan Jones, Spencer Torkelson, Josh Naylor, Luis Arraez, Vinnie Pasquantino, Nathaniel Lowe, and Kyle Manzardo.

The first base rankings below are specifically designed for traditional 5x5 Roto Mixed Leagues (click here for 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!
