Welcome to the 2024 Fantasy Baseball Product

Fantasy baseball in 2024 is a wonderful world of fun. Rankings and drafting. Pitching and hitting. Rookies. We will cover all of that this season, and so much more. Here is what you need to know.

First off, welcome back to those of you that have been with us before. Many thanks.

For those of you joining the Elite Mafia for the first  time this season, welcome as well. Hopefully you will enjoy our own unique brand of analysis this season.

The most important piece to note with this product is that it is not just a preseason draft guide. If you’ve purchased the baseball product, you will get full coverage from now through the entire 2024 regular season. Yep, start to finish with us as your copilot.

1 – This is the HOMEPAGE for the Draft Guide. Bookmark this page for future use as it is basically the centerpiece of all the work we will be posting.

2 – Let’s talk the lifeblood of the product – rankings. You will be granted access to the rankings. The rankings will continually be updated during the preseason, often on a daily basis, and once the season begins the rankings will be updated the first of every month (May 1^st, June 1^st, July 1^st, August 1^st & September 1^st). Yep, a full re-do of the rankings the first of every month in season.

3 – We will look back at the 2023 season. What did we get right? What did we miss? Can we replicated our tremendous Breakout Pitcher of the Year call from last season?

4 – Which players should you target? Which should you avoid? What are the keys to focus on when trying to decide which category a guy falls into? We will take you step-by-step through the process.

5 – Who are the youngsters you need to know about in 2024? Oh yeah, we will have a whole section on rookies.

6 – Which analytical tools are truly helpful, and how does any of that fancy stuff help you in the fantasy game?

7 – You will be given access to our Discord chatrooms. Ask a question and you will get an in-depth response. Have a follow-up question? Ask away, and one of our staff will guide you to the answer you seek.

8 – Returning to the rankings, as you will see below, we are more than just mixed league, AL/NL only rankings for roto leagues. We will touch on points leagues, H2H leagues, even dynasty setups.

9 – Look for our Fantasy Sports Daily show throughout the season at 11 AM EST. M-F.

With that, let’s begin our wonderous ride to fantasy glory in 2024.
