5 Mid-Round Draft Picks Experts Love (Fantasy Baseball)

We are officially back. It is that time of the year, with spring training right around the corner. We will be running a fantasy baseball mock draft using FantasyPros’ Draft Wizard tool. We’ll look at some of my favorite picks for a 12-team, head-to-head, traditional 5×5 categories league with the following positions: 1-C, 1-1B, 1-2B, 1-3B, 1-SS, 3-OF, 1-UTIL, 5-Pitchers and three bench spots. I’m drafting from the two-slot. You can find the draft board here. Here are a few of our favorite middle-round fantasy baseball draft picks.

Fantasy Baseball Draft Picks Experts Love

Let’s dive into a few of my favorite picks from a recent fantasy baseball mock draft. And you can also check out the full fantasy baseball mock draft.

Cole Ragans (SP – KC)

Despite drawing trade interest this offseason, Cole Ragans remains with the Royals for now. He missed three months with a rotator cuff strain last year before returning to make three more starts to close the season. He remains a high-upside starting pitcher.

Corey Seager (SS – TEX)

It was a down season for Corey Seager compared to his standards last year, as he was limited to 102 games due to injuries. That has been an issue the last few seasons for him, which is baked into where he is going in drafts, as he hasn’t played more than 123 games the past three years. He had three years of hitting at least 30 home runs that ended last season.
