Welcome RotoBallers to our Underdog Best Ball Fantasy Baseball Rankings for 2024 Best Ball leagues on Underdog Fantasy. A reminder that on the Underdog Fantasy platform, MLB's best ball leagues only have three possible positions - Infield (IF), Outfield (OF), and Pitcher (P). You will see these three positions in the rankings below, next to each player's name under the "Underdog Position" column.

These MLB best ball rankings cover both hitters and pitchers and include tiers for the top 380 players. The fantasy baseball rankings are geared towards Underdog best ball leagues and scoring rules but can be used as a guide for all fantasy baseball best ball platforms and leagues. You can also find our NFBC Best Ball fantasy baseball rankings.

For anyone who isn't very familiar with fantasy baseball's best ball leagues, they are essentially draft-only leagues with no moves during the season. Once a best ball draft is completed, nothing else happens -- no setting weekly lineups, no trading, no waiver wire moves. Every week of the season, the best combo of fantasy players on your team is automatically calculated and used to determine the highest possible scoring outcome.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup tools and weekly lineup resources:
