Jonathan India - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Injury News, DFS Picks

Our 2023 fantasy baseball second base rankings for points leagues and H2H points scoring as of March 19, 2023. Use our second base rankings, tiers, and analysis to win your fantasy baseball drafts.

Do you play in fantasy baseball points leagues? Us too, and we have you covered with points league analysis all season long. Today we're here with our fantasy baseball second base rankings for points leagues as of March 19thIn general, points leagues and H2H points formats are underserved by the fantasy baseball community and fantasy baseball outlets. Here at RotoBaller, we really take pride in points league formats and have specialized in this area for years. Throughout the preseason and MLB season, we'll publish rankings, tools, and analysis articles all geared for fantasy baseball points leagues.

In this article below, we will be taking a look at our second base rankings list put together by RotoBaller's lead fantasy baseball points analyst, Nicklaus Gaut. In the past, second base was one of the trickiest positions to fill, but there are plenty of solid options to roster in 2023. Second base has less star power than some of the other positions, as Marcus Semien is the only second baseman in the top 25 in RotoBaller's top 300 overall consensus rankings for points leagues. Houston Astros star second basemen Jose Altuve was diagnosed with a fractured right thumb and is out 8-10 weeks, leaving only a few elite options at the position. However, fantasy managers can expect useful fantasy production as there is a lot of value to be had at the keystone, with plenty of solid options that are far down the list. We're here to help sort it out with our 2023 fantasy baseball rankings. Let's see where key second basemen like Max Muncy, Ketel Marte, Vaughn Grissom, Brandon Lowe, and Jonathan India 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. Also, make use of all our premium resources with our MLB Draft Kit. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have – download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top MLB news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts!

Fantasy Baseball Second 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.
