Notes
	The Pirates faced criticism for keeping Bubba Chandler in Triple-A in 2025, but he was promoted in late August. The 23-year-old righty looked like a potential frontline starter He demonstrated his readiness with a 99-mph fastball, 89-mph slider and a 92-mph changeup that generated a 39.6% whiff rate in the majors. Chandler is going to cost you on draft day, as he is one of the darlings of the fantasy baseball world. But if he delivers what is expected, it will be worth paying up in drafts.
