Howdy RotoBallers, we are now a solid two months into the fantasy baseball season so it's time for another rankings check-in. Below in this article you will find Nick Mariano's updated 2022 fantasy baseball rankings and tiers for 5x5 mixed roto leagues. These rankings are being released in early June, and are looking at rest-of-season fantasy baseball rankings and player values for the rest of this MLB season from this point on.
There have been a lot of fast starts and slow starts to the MLB season, for both hitters and pitchers. Which of these are we to take seriously, and which need to be taken with grain of salt? Is it time to elevate our expectations on certain players, and elevate touted prospects into a higher tier for fantasy baseball leagues? How much patience do we need to show for highly-touted players who have struggled out of the gate, especially veterans with proven track records? Hopefully the rankings below will give you some perspective on our thoughts on these topics, and help you assess the strength of your rosters going forward.
These rankings will be updated again every few weeks throughout the season, so some of these situations are very fluid. It's not panic time yet, as there is still plenty of season left. We may not be ready to elevate hot-starting players into the elite yet, or call slow-starting players complete busts -- but it's another a good checkpoint for the long fantasy season.
