TGFBI drafts are in full effect for 2022. For those that don’t know, TGFBI the largest fantasy baseball industry contest with 29 fifteen person leagues. Five days in and all leagues are already through the first 100 picks with the fastest league already at pick 282! For a look at the complete ADP which I am updating throughout the drafts and all the draft boards, click here.
If you want to win your way in, you can compete in a satellite league which are available here, but they will be ending next week!

Watch me live as I draft my team in the NFBC Online Championship! This is a 12-team 5×5 Roto draft with an overall component.
Here is today’s chat transcript.
| 9:03 |
: Justin Mason: Will start at the top of the hour and if we have enough questions. In the meantime, please follow me on all my social media’s (twitter, tiktok, facebook, youtube, and instagram) at JustinMasonFWFB! I am doing regular podcasts on the FWFB podcast as well as three episodes a week for the Sleeper and the Bust so definitely make sure you are subscribed there as well! |
| 9:04 |
: I also have my Beat Justin Mason Online Championship today at 3pm EST and will be streaming it live on my youtube, twitch, and twitter as well as I will have a post for it on FanGraphs! |
| 10:00 |
: In a 5×5 roto, which position(s) would you feel comfortable filling a starter in the last few rounds, and with which player(s)? 1B seems to be very deep |
| 10:02 |
: I think when we talk about positional scarcity it really depends on how deep of a league we are talking. For instance, SS is loaded, but in a deeper league, it falls off pretty quickly. 1B is is probably the easiest to get later on for sure. I have an article coming out on Fantasy Pros that I finished last night that breaks down my thoughts on each position for shallower and deeper formats. |
| 10:02 |
: 3B is weak this year, outside of the top 6-8 guys – how do you strategize to account for this during the draft? |
| 10:03 |
: I think it is definitely weaker in the middle than at the top or in the back of the draft, but honestly it is not as bad as second base. I am hoping to leave my draft with an elite guy but if I don’t I have found myself just waiting and taking one of the high upside young guys later like Josh Jung and Jordan Walker. |
