Mike Trout is widely considered to be the best player in baseball, and for good reason. In each of the last six seasons, he has finished first or second in American League MVP voting. He is a five-time All-Star and has won three Silver Slugger Awards. Trout has also led the league in stolen bases twice. Simply put, he is a fantasy baseball stud and should be drafted with one of the first overall picks.

2. Mookie BettsBoston Red Sox
Mookie Betts is another player who has established himself as one of the best in baseball. He won the AL MVP Award in 2018 after hitting .346 with 32 home runs 80 RBI, 129 runs scored and 30 stolen bases. Betts also won a Gold Glove Award that season and has been named an All-Star in each of the last three years.

3. Jose Altuve – Houston Astros
Jose Altuve is another player who has been among the best in baseball over the last several years. He is a two-time AL MVP (2017 & 2019) and was also named World Series MVP in 2017 when he helped lead the Astros to their first ever championship. Altuve has led the AL in batting average four times and has also stolen at least 30 bases in four different seasons. He doesn’t have quite as much power as some of the other top fantasy baseball players but he more than makes up for it with his ability to hit for a high average and steal bases.

4. Ronald Acuna Jr. – Atlanta Braves
Ronald Acuna Jr. burst onto the scene last season and quickly established himself as one of the top young players in baseball. In just his second season, Acuna hit .280 with 41 home runs 101 RBI, 127 runs scored, and 37 stolen bases en route to winning NL Rookie of the Year honors.

The top busts of the upcoming season

The 2020 baseball season is mired in controversy and no one knows when or if it will even happen. But that doesn’t mean we can’t look ahead to the 2021 season and start preparing for our fantasy drafts!

Most Fantasy Baseball owners have a pretty good idea of who the top players in the game are. However, every year there are a few players who are drafted in the early rounds who end up being major busts.

Avoiding these busts is essential if you want to have a successful fantasy baseball season. So, with that in mind, here are the top five busts of the upcoming season

1. Yasiel Puig – Puig had a down year in 2019 and he’s now on his third team in three seasons. The move to Cleveland should help his batting average but his power numbers are likely to take a hit.

2. Kris Bryant – Bryant was limited to just 102 games last season due to injuries and he’s already dealing with a shoulder issue this spring. There’s no doubting his talent, but he’s become a huge injury risk.

3. Manny Machado – Machado had a disappointing first year in San Diego and he’s now moving to a much worse hitter’s park in Chicago. He could still put up solid numbers, but don’t expect him to be a top-10 producer like he has been in years past.

4. Gerrit Cole – Cole is one of the best pitchers in baseball, but he’s moving from the friendly confines of Yankee Stadium to pitcher-friendly Minute Maid Park Additionally, he’s going to have to deal with one of the best lineups in baseball on a regular basis in the AL East.

5. Shohei Ohtani – Ohtani is an absolute stud when healthy, but he missed all of last season due to injury and there’s no guarantee he’ll be ready for the start of this season. If you draft him, be sure to have a solid backup plan in place.
