Bryce Harper stands out in first base fantasy baseball rankings

2024 was a down year overall at first base, with several stalwarts taking a step backwards. One who did stand out though is Toronto’s Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and sets the pace in the American League. But will failed contract extension talks with the Blue Jays this offseason carry over onto the field?

New arrival Christian Walker will take aim at the Crawford Boxes in Houston, as will Cody Bellinger with the short porch in Yankee Stadium. Bellinger and another former NL MVP, Paul Goldschmidt, joined the defending AL champs this offseason to help fill the void left by Juan Soto’s departure. The AL East also boasts potential value picks Triston Casas and Ryan Mountcastle.

In the National League, Bryce Harper gets the nod as the top overall first baseman. He’s just ahead of Freddie Freeman, who’s coming off ankle surgery, and Matt Olson, who regressed considerably from his stellar 2023 numbers.

Returning to the Mets was the best thing that could happen to Pete Alonso’s fantasy value, especially with Soto now hitting in front of him. Recently traded Josh Naylor joins last season’s most prolific offense in Arizona and is a good bet for a second consecutive 100-RBI season. However, depth in the NL falls off sharply after those first five.
