What a season, RotoBallers. Fantasy baseball is always a fun, interesting, and long season – filled with injuries, breakout players, and different strategies. It takes stamina and endurance to win the six month marathon, and we’re here today to recognize those who pulled it off.

With 348 teams competing to be crowned champion of the 2022 Fantasy Baseball RotoBaller Challenge on Fantrax (and to have their bank account padded a bit more), only one prevailed. Below is the final update, showing the leaders through the end of the season.

In case you missed it, the RotoBaller Challenge is an annual fantasy baseball tournament run by yours truly – all free to enter, with lots of fun prizes.
