Welcome to Racing Barrels. It's Tuesday, January 14th. Position preview season rolls along.

Derek Van Riper, Inoceris, here with you on this episode.

We take a look at the second base position.

We close out the middle infield.

We started off the series on Monday, the previous episode in this feed, looking at short stops.

Tons of ground to cover again.

And second base is one of those positions that's kind of backloaded by ADP.

So a lot more conversation will happen lower in the pool for reasons that are basically

how the playing time is distributed for a lot of teams.

It's a shared position for some.

It's not really a spot where you see a ton of prospects unless they're moving off shortstop

or something because it's crowded.

So interesting position to try and figure out. And a lot of ground. ton of prospects unless they're moving off shortstop or something because it's crowded.

So interesting position to try and figure out.

And a lot of ground to cover like always.

Before we get into all of it, just a reminder, we will do the hive rankings for this position as well.

So if you're in our Discord, you'll see a link to fill those out, submit your own rankings.

We're going to compile all those to get a listener composite group. That'll be open for probably about two weeks or so. It's a lot of time to get those in, but the sooner, the better. And as always, we use NFBC ADP to sort of

structure the conversation to give you an idea where these players have been going in drafts

recently.

You're right, here we go, you know, we're going right after it.

Tier 1 at second base is literally one player.
