How high will Bryce Harper and Marcus Semien go?

Even if your season isn’t quite over yet, it’s likely you’ve set your lineup for the last time, which makes now a fitting time to begin thinking about 2022.
And what more fitting beginning is there than … the beginning, as in the first two rounds of the draft? What I’m revealing here is basically the starting point for my 2022 rankings. In the weeks to come, I’ll be going position by position.
The emphasis is traditional 5×5 Rotisserie scoring, though I do address some of the changes I’d make for Head-to-Head points scoring. One worth mentioning at the top here is that the top four pitchers in Round 2 (Gerrit Cole, Max Scherzer, Corbin Burnes and Walker Buehler) would likely move ahead of some of the bats in Round 1, though I’ll leave the specifics for later.
Again, this is just a starting point, something to mull over as we begin the countdown to draft prep season. As you can see, I won’t be going as pitcher-heavy this time around.
