1. José Ramírez – Elite Power-Speed Threat
There’s no debate at the top – José Ramírez is the complete fantasy package at third base. Falling just short of a 40/40 season, he combines home runs, stolen bases, and a solid batting average. Ramírez’s consistent elite production makes him the unquestioned top pick at third base.
10. Alec Bohm – Reliable Batting Average with Limited Power
While Alec Bohm lacks home run power, his high batting average makes him a reliable option in leagues that value consistency. His other offensive metrics are solid, and with a strong lineup in Philadelphia, Bohm can still deliver runs and RBI. He may not be a powerhouse, but if you’re looking for steady production, Bohm is a dependable choice.

5. Manny Machado – Durable Power Option
With seven seasons of 30+ home runs, Manny Machado is one of the most reliable power hitters at third base. His durability and stable production make him a top choice for fantasy managers wanting consistent numbers across all categories. Machado’s reliability is a major asset, and his spot in San Diego’s lineup only boosts his value.
4. Royce Lewis – High Ceiling but Risky
Royce Lewis showed flashes of brilliance before an injury ended his 2024 season. His impressive speed and power combination make him a potential game-changer, but there’s risk due to his injury history. If he stays healthy, Lewis could reward fantasy managers with a breakout season that rivals the best at his position.
3. Austin Riley – Safe, High-Floor Option

2. Rafael Devers – Power Bat with High Offensive Upside
With a career average of 33 home runs and 105 RBI per season, Rafael Devers is one of the most potent bats available at third base. Despite battling shoulder issues, he’s expected to return strong, making him a top option for managers wanting a high-impact bat with big run production potential.
