ESPN fantasy way-too-early baseball rankings: 2025 points leagues

The 2024 fantasy baseball season might be in the books, but success in this game demands your year-round attention. Before you know it, the 2025 season will be here! To give you a head start on your draft preparation, here are my way-too-early rankings for 2025, designed specifically with ESPN points-style leagues in mind.

Note: Although Shohei Ohtani did not pitch in 2024, we will allow him to retain his SP eligibility under the assumption that he will pitch in 2025. Positions below reflect season-ending qualification from 2024, but 2025 eligibility will soon be applied to these rankings .
