First Base Rankings and Projections

First base is an easy position to fill in fantasy baseball because it is the deepest position in the game. However, don't sleep on getting the right guy to fill first in your lineup. While first base is really deep, it gets shallow pretty quickly. In most drafts, you will see anywhere from 10-12 firstbaseman taken in the first 50-60 picks. This year, you are also looking at 4 going in the first round of most twelve team drafts. This position provides a major portion of most lineup's power and quite a few firstbasemen also provide reliable averages as well. In fact, the only major category you won't fill with first base is steals, although a handful of players will provide double figure steals. So, who are you rolling with at first base this year? Check out my rankings and projections here.
