Fantasy Baseball Second Base Rankings

There isn’t a more consistent second baseman in fantasy baseball than Chase Utley. At the second base position in fantasy baseball, Chase Utley is da man. Year in, year out, fantasy baseball owners know what to expect from Utley.

We dropped Utley at the midseason point from the top of our fantasy rankings. At the time, that wasn’t a mistake. Heading into 2010, however, there’s no reason to believe that Utley won’t once again be the top fantasy second baseman.

Second base is a ridiculously thin position in fantasy baseball. If most fantasy owners weren’t required to draft a second baseman, you could easily make a case for only 7 second baseman really being considered “draftable.”

Last season, Ian Kinsler of he Texas Rangers and Utley were neck-in-neck for the ranking of top dog among fantasy baseball second baseman. While Kinsler is only 27, his keen ability to spend time on the DL allows Utley to have a slight advantage at the position. Last season, Utley played in 156 games… Kinsler played in 144. Utley finished the year batting .282 with 31 home runs, 93 RBI, 112 runs and 23 steals.

Ian Kinsler is a close no. 2 and will likely produce better power numbers in a comparable number of games. When it comes to second baseman in fantasy baseball, however, the conversation always begins with Chase Utley… and that’s the case once again in 2010.
