With Opening Day approaching, fantasy baseball managers are preparing for drafts to build winning rosters. Experts Tristan H. Cockcroft and Eric Karabell discuss their ideal first-round picks from each draft position in ESPN standard leagues. Both recommend Shohei Ohtani as the top choice for both points-based and rotisserie formats. They highlight Ohtani's impressive fantasy point average and his potential comeback as a pitcher, alongside second-round picks for optimal team composition. Cockcroft suggests Ketel Marte while Karabell favors Trevor Story for their respective formats, emphasizing their value as top-tier players.
In points-based leagues, drafting Shohei Ohtani at No. 1 is ideal due to his historical performance, with substantial potential for additional points as a pitcher returns.
Eric Karabell suggests Ohtani as the first pick for rotisserie leagues too, highlighting his unique advantage and the caliber of his expected contributions in both formats.
