Rest of Season Fantasy Baseball Rankings
Edwin Encarnacion mashed, George Springer sprung to life, and less-heralded starters Dallas Keuchel and Phil Hughes became fantasy relevant during the month of May.
With two months in the books in the MLB season, it's time for our June fantasy baseball rankings update here at RotoBaller!
As a reminder, players are ranked based on how I feel they will perform over the remainder of the season, from this point going forward, in 5×5 rotisserie scoring.
