Over the years, the second base position has usually been one of the more shallow positions for fantasy purposes. And low and behold, the 2023 season will be no different. But we'll get more into that in just a second. At the top, we have four players being taken inside the top 50 of most fantasy drafts: Jose Altuve, Marcus Semien, Jazz Chisholm Jr, and Ozzie Albies. This quartet represents tier one and then there's a noticeable dropoff to tier two.We pretty much know what we're getting out of ...

When asked if Miami Marlins infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. will get any run at shortstop in 2023, general manager Kim Ng said, "We haven't decided yet."

The young Marlins middle-infielder had a strong rookie campaign in 2021, slashing .248/.303/.425 with 18 homers and 23 steals. The 28.6% K% and 49% GB% limited his upside, but it was a useful start to a career and the steals kept him very much in play for fantasy. It was looking like he had taken a big step forward in 2022, slashing .254/.325/.535 for 60 games before losing the rest of his season to injury. Jazz's barrel rate over that short sample was 16.6% and he had dropped the GB% ...

This is a procedural move as the Marlins are dealing with a ton of injuries and need to clear space on the 40-man roster.
