In fact, many leagues have already drafted in preparation for the season that begins in about a week. It&#8217;s an exciting time to be a baseball fan or a fantasy player. <\/p>\n<p>Trea Turner is by far the best shortstop available in fantasy baseball. However, he&#8217;s going to go very early and leave many drafters without another option. Turner figures to hit over .300 and with around 30 home runs and 30 steals for elite fantasy production. If he&#8217;s off the board, here are some options to replace him. <\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><template id=\"bets-today-poll\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"preview-card-holder bets-today-poll\">\n<p><span class=\"date\"\/> \u2022 <span class=\"time\"\/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<h2>Fantasy baseball shortstops that aren&#8217;t Trea Turner<\/h2>\n<h3>3) Fernando Tatis Jr.<\/h3>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/baseball\/youtube\">\n<div class=\"yt-wrapper\"> <noscript><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fernando Tatis Jr 2021 Highlights\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lU0VwnnBp8g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript> <\/p>\n<div class=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/baseball\/youtube\" data-embed=\"lU0VwnnBp8g\">\n<div class=\"play-button\"><img height=\"370\" width=\"660\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/03\/3eaa1-16795759298857-1920.jpg\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/03\/3eaa1-16795759298857-1920.jpg\" class=\"lazy-img\" alt=\"youtube-cover\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Fernando Tatis Jr. is going to begin the year suspended, so he won&#8217;t play for any team that drafts him for a little while.
