As we dive deeper into the 2025 fantasy baseball season, the debate around the top picks is heating up, especially with the shortstop position gaining so much attention. With players like Bobby Witt Jr., Elly De La Cruz, and Gunnar Henderson leading the charge, it begs the question: who truly deserves the top spot in your draft?
Some argue that Witt's combination of speed and power makes him the clear choice, while others believe that De La Cruz's potential for explosive growth could outshine him. And let's not forget about Gunnar Henderson, who has been making waves with his consistent performance.
But here's where it gets interesting: is it time to consider the unconventional? With Shohei Ohtani's dual-threat capabilities, should he still be the #1 overall pick despite the depth at shortstop? His ability to contribute significantly both as a hitter and a pitcher is a game-changer.
What are your thoughts? Are you leaning towards a traditional shortstop for your first pick, or do you see the value in taking Ohtani, even if it means passing on a top-tier shortstop?
Additionally, how do you feel about the recent injuries and transactions, like Kenley Jansen moving to the Angels and Ty France heading to the Twins? How do these changes impact your draft strategy?
Let’s hear your bold predictions for the season! Who do you think will emerge as the surprise star at shortstop, and which players are you avoiding like the plague? Share your insights and let’s get the conversation rolling!
