First base rankings: MVP Goldschmidt part of power-packed position

First base is traditionally a position where fantasy teams can find plenty of power. At the top of the scale, that’s certainly true with NL MVP Paul Goldschmidt, two-time Home Run Derby king Pete Alonso and Braves slugger Matt Olson — each of whom had at least 30 homers and 100 RBI last season. 

But if you miss out on the elite first basemen, there’s still enough depth at the position to get solid production in the middle-to-late rounds of your draft. 

In the American League, the Blue Jays’ Vladimir Guerrero Jr. stands alone in the top tier. Former AL MVP Jose Abreu signing as a free agent with the Astros opens up an everyday spot for up-and-coming youngster Andrew Vaughn on the White Sox.

In the National League, there’s a solid middle tier with C.J. Cron (29 HR, 103 RBI), Rhys Hoskins (30 HR, 79 RBI) and Christian Walker (36 HR, 94 RBI) as excellent targets.
