Please, blog, may I have some more?Plenty of prospects left in the minors for too long sometimes, and sometimes Grey gets left at home for the NBA Finals. This week on the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, we talk about prospects that are heading up to the majors starting with the #1 prospect in baseball, Roman Anthony of the Red Sox. The […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It is unbelievable how good Ronald Acuna Jr. is after tearing a second ACL. In the 13 games since his return, Acuna Jr. has four home runs while slashing .333/.418/.625. He has not stolen a base yet and his strikeout rate is slightly above his career high (30.9%) but who cares when he has a […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Here’s what I wrote in November of last year, “Went back and searched my posts for every mention of the word “sleeper” until the All-Star Break. So, if I said, “(player’s name) was going to be a 2025 fantasy baseball sleeper,” I made note of it with a slash. By the time I was done, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Lotta movement to cover this week. The Royals lineup looks pretty different these days with Jac Caglianone beefing up the middle. Vinnie P is heating up with the weather, posting a 167 wRC+ over his last 16 games. Maikel Garcia and Bobby Witt Jr. are both in rhythm right now, so this team could go on a nice summer run. They’re 32-and-29 despite scoring six fewer runs than the Chicago White Sox this season.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Didja know Ronny Mauricio‘s full name was Ronny Bobby Ricky And Mauricio? If you know, you know, which is pretty self-explanatory. Hey, Biggie, if you don’t know, you don’t know. Biggie Smalls, Mr. Exposition! If Notorious B.I.G. lived, I’m sure he would’ve had an incredibly long and illustrious career, but also, I don’t know, I’m […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?One super quick word about the top 20 2nd basemen for 2025 fantasy baseball and all the 2025 fantasy baseball rankings, each ranking appears insanely long and it is, but I imagine in a lot of leagues guys won’t have eligibility, because I’m using the extremely lax Yahoo position eligibility (five games started). Without further […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?1. OF Jett Williams | 20 | AAA | 2025
A wrist injury that required surgery cost the 5’7” 175 lb Williams most of this season, but he returned in time for six games in Triple-A and posted a .533 on base percentage. Prospect development is not linear, and Williams has lost some key development time, but he’s in the Corbin Carroll bucket as a top tier athlete with elite hands who can cheat the norms. He’s played just 36 games in the upper minors but could look like an opening day roster option next season, and even if he’s sent down for seasoning (the likeliest outcome), he could force his way into the lineup by May.

Please, blog, may I have some more?This year MLB is taking a different approach. Rather than having different teams, it’s the Dodgers and everyone else. That group of misfits over there sharing a glove? That’s the non-Dodgers. Over here, the boat with everyone else you might remember from All-Star Games and similar fanfare? That’s the Dodgers. Yeah, the boat that says […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?After going over keeper relievers, keeper starters and keeper catchers in October, we turned our attention to the top infield keepers last week with a look at the keeper first basemen.
This week we continue the trip around the infield by looking at the second basemen.
I’m pretty sure I said this last year, but I will say it again: second base is the scrapheap of major league baseball. It seems every manager believes anyone can play second base – and they may be right. You have players getting starts at the spot that you would think would never play there – like a Brandon Drury. Right fielders, center fielders, third basemen, first basemen – they are all getting time at second base.
With so many fantasy leagues requiring middle infielders, the list of keepers is long and the bar to be on the list consists of players who had to have at least 10 starts at second base.
Enough with the chit chat, on to the 2024 Top Keepers – Second Basemen
