Ben Zobrist Returns For Fielding Drills

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) was on the field Monday doing fielding drills. Zobrist missed the first few days of spring training with back stiffness and manager Joe Maddon has stated how he doesn’t want to push the veteran. Zobrist hit in the batting cages the other day and should be fine heading into 2018. […]


Ozzie Albies Rankings Debate - Comparing RotoBaller's Rankers

We continue our rankings debate with a look at a young player whose draft stock seems to be rising by the day and could be a make-or-break selection in many drafts. RotoBaller's expert writers have come up with our consensus rankings for mixed leagues, but that doesn't mean we agreed on everything. In this space, […]


Points Leagues Second Basemen: Overvalued and Undervalued

Points leagues are less popular than the traditional rotisserie or head-to-head scoring formats. Consequently, most fantasy analysis is geared toward the latter styles. As anyone who’s played in a points league before knows, though, player values can be quite a bit different under those settings. All week, I’ll be offering my thoughts on potential points […]


Jonathan Schoop Goes Hitless In First Spring Training Game

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop (elbow) may have gone 0-for-3 in Saturday night's 1-1 tie with the Twins, but manager Buck Showalter must have been thrilled that he was able to even put him in the lineup. Schoop had missed the opener with bursitis in his left elbow. He's a durable second baseman and hopefully […]


Jonathan Schoop Expects To Play Saturday Night

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop (elbow) is feeling much better and expects to play in the spring training game Saturday night. Schoop was held out Friday with his minor injury, but barring any setbacks, there should be nothing to worry about. After posting a breakout season in 2017 (.293, 32 homers, 105 RBI), Schoop […]


Ben Zobrist Feeling Better

Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports that Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) is feeling better. It’s good news for Zobrist, who was also seen hitting in the batting cages. The Cubs are taking it easy with the veteran and he should be good to go for Opening Day. However, Zobrist's fantasy stock has taken a hit, […]


Gleyber Torres Not A Lock At Second Base

In Friday's spring training debut, the New York Yankees slotted prized prospect Gleyber Torres into the starting second base spot. The 20-year-old batted sixth and went hitless in two appearances. While getting the start in the first preseason game of the year, Torres shouldn’t take too much confidence in that. Manager Aaron Boone stated that the battle […]


Ozhaino Albies Collects Hit In First Spring Training Action Of 2018

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozhaino Albies, called Ozzie by many, is seen by the organization as possibly being a vital cog in the team's future lineups. He's got speed and some power, both of which could make him a valuable fantasy asset. Albies collected a hit in his first spring training game. He's not in […]


Marco Hernandez Experiencing More Pain

According to Jen McCaffrey, Boston Red Sox infielder Marco Hernandez (shoulder) had to return to Boston due to discomfort in his left shoulder. Doctors determined Hernandez needed to have the pins removed that were inserted into his shoulder last May. "He was doing everything fine and he felt weak or he was sore and it […]


Ben Zobrist Returns To Field Friday

Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports that Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) was on the field Friday. Zobrist has been absent from workouts all week with a back injury. Manager Joe Maddon has stated that there is nothing to worry about and they didn’t want to push anything with Zobrist. The veteran will be competing with […]


Javier Baez Says He Is Having A “Perfect” Spring

Speaking to reporters on Friday, Chicago Cubs infielder Javier Baez said his spring training has been “perfect” so far. Earlier in the week it was reported that Baez could get 500 to 600 at-bats this year but would have to improve his plate discipline, strikeouts and drive balls all over the field. Baez should get […]


Devon Travis Could Hit Atop Toronto Lineup

With spring training in full swing, one of the things the fantasy community likes to obsess over now is trying to figure out lineup construction. As far as the leadoff hitter for the Toronto Blue Jays is concerned, according to manager John Gibbons, second baseman Devon Travis might be leading the pack. Travis has long enamored […]


Jonathan Schoop Day-To-Day With Left Elbow Bursitis

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop (elbow) was scratched from the Feb. 23 spring training opener due to bursitis in his left elbow. According to Rich Dubroff of PressBoxOnline, Schoop banged it on something. If this turns into something worse, it's terrible news for fantasy owners since Schoop is a top-10 second baseman. His 32 homers […]


2018 Second Basemen - Dynasty Tiered Rankings

We continue our fantasy baseball dynasty rankings analysis with the second base position. Second base is a very intriguing position for dynasty leagues, as there is a changing of the guard that could come as soon as a year or two. Out will be the mainstay names of Robinson Cano, Brian Dozier, and Daniel Murphy, […]


Not Much Concern About Jason Kipnis' Sore Back

Updating a previous report, Cleveland Indians second baseman/outfielder Jason Kipnis (back) is sitting out the first few spring training games due to a sore back. Kipnis himself said his back pain is caused by pushing himself too hard too early on in the spring. He said his body told him to take a break after taking […]


Jason Kipnis To Be Kept Out of Early Spring Training Games

Cleveland Indians second baseman/outfielder Jason Kipnis (back) will be held out of early spring training games due to a sore lower back. There doesn't seem to be a ton of concern regarding the soreness, but the oft-injured Kipnis is always someone to keep an eye on no matter how minor the injury may seem. Kipnis spent […]


Devon Travis Impressing Early In Camp

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Devon Travis (knee) has been impressing the coaching staff and his teammates early in camp and has been taking batting practice and participating in fielding drills daily. “You watch him move around, and if you didn’t know he’d had an injury, you wouldn’t think anything of it,” manager John Gibbons […]


Chris Owings Will Roam The Whole Field

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Chris Owings will get plenty of playing time this year, according to manager Torey Lovullo. "He’s going to walk all over the diamond and impact the game at a different angle at different times throughout the course of the season." The agenda seems to be getting him repetitions at all the […]


Javier Baez Can Earn More Plate Appearances With Better Plate Discipline

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Chicago Cubs infielder Javier Baez can earn more at-bats this season if he improves his strike zone, draws walks and uses the whole field. Baez is one of the more exciting players in the game today due to his light-tower power and strong defense, but he has still struggled […]


Ben Zobrist Remains Out

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) remains sidelined for workouts. Zobrist has been absent all week with a back issue. Manager Joe Maddon seems to be playing it slow with the veteran and said “he’s fine.” Aside from daily leagues or an injury to Javier Baez or Ian Happ, Zobrist shouldn’t hold much fantasy value […]


Gleyber Torres Will Battle For Starting Second Base Position

Gleyber Torres, the top prospect in the New York Yankees farm system and the No. 5 prospect in all of baseball, will do battle for the starting position at second base this spring. This news came from general manager Brian Cashman in light of the club’s acquisition of infielder Brandon Drury from the Arizona Diamondbacks. While Torres, […]


Ronald Torreyes To Battle For Second Base Spot

With the arrival of infielder Brandon Drury to the New York Yankees, the competition for third base has become slightly clearer. For Ronald Torreyes, this also appears to make things clearer, as he seems set to focus on competing for the starting job at second base. According to general manager Brian Cashman, the Venezuelan will now mainly focus […]


Brandon Drury To Focus On Third Base

While New York Yankees infielder Brandon Drury’s ability to play both second and third base has been well documented, the prevailing thought was that he would settle at third base with the New York Yankees. This, of course, is considering the fact that top shortstop prospect Gleyber Torres is poised to take over at second. On […]


Kolten Wong Turns To Yoga In Quest To Improve In 2018

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong has turned to yoga in hopes to improve in 2018. Manager Mike Matheny said, “I think he’s one of those guys who wants to take his game to another level.” Wong is coming off a year in which he had both ups and downs but still produced a respectable […]


Anthony Rizzo Won’t Lead Off In 2018

When asked if leading off was a possibility for Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo in 2018, he replied with “no.” It’s no surprise, as Rizzo remains one of the better middle-of-the-order hitters in all of baseball. Rizzo should be targeted in the top 20 to top 25 this year and should be able to maintain […]


Ben Zobrist Misses Second Straight Day With Back Problem

Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports that Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) was held out of a workout for the second straight day with a back problem. Zobrist should be fine, but manager Joe Maddon didn’t want to push it. Zobrist will likely have more value to the Cubs than fantasy owners in 2018, as he […]


Six Padres Outfielders Vying For One Position

Per Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune, San Diego Padres Manager Andy Green put a positive spin on the overcrowded outfield situation in San Diego. With Manuel Margot and Wil Myers occupying two spots, Hunter Renfroe, Jose Pirela, Alex Dickerson, Franchy Cordero, Travis Jankowski and Matt Szczur will all fight for playing time in […]


Nick Mariano's 2018 Dynasty Sleepers List (Premium Content)

All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. The term "sleeper" remains a volatile one, but when you add the dynasty-league wrinkle to it then you really open yourself up to a can of worms. Some people are in 12-team dynasties with a rather healthy stable of prospects available for the picking, […]

Dustin Pedroia Doing Baseball Activities

Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia (knee) started taking grounders from his knees Tuesday. Pedroia had offseason knee surgery, and demonstrating an ability to actually conduct activities from his knees is a good sign. He is currently expected to return in May. Pedroia spent much of the 2017 season dealing with injuries but still had […]


Willy Adames Joins Jumble At Second Base

The Tampa Bay Rays will give at least five players time at second base in spring training. Manager Kevin Cash named Micah Johnson, Daniel Robertson, Ryan Schimpf and Joey Wendle as players who will see time at second base when he was asked. Later, he said that Willy Adames will mostly see time at shortstop but […]
