Fantasy Baseball Player Notes
2026 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes
|
1.
Shohei Ohtani
SP,DH - LAD
There's no real debate at the top of 2026 fantasy drafts: In formats where he is considered one player, Shohei Ohtani remains the clear-cut 1.01 thanks to his unmatched two-way impact. Offensively, his 2026 projections again place him among the game's elite, with 45-plus home runs, triple-digit runs and RBI, and an on-base percentage north of .390 while continuing to anchor the Dodgers' lineup from the leadoff spot. The stolen base ceiling isn't what it was earlier in his career, but projected totals in the high teens still provide a valuable bonus atop his league-leading power and run production.
What truly separates Ohtani, however, is his return as a full-time starting pitcher. His 2026 projections peg him as a top-tier arm, capable of delivering ace-level strikeout totals, strong ratios, and double-digit wins in one of baseball's best team contexts. Even with some workload management baked in, Ohtani's ability to provide elite value on both sides of the ball gives fantasy managers a structural advantage no other player can match. As long as he's healthy, Ohtani isn't just the safest pick in fantasy baseball; he's still redefining what roster construction can look like. |

2.
Aaron Judge
LF,CF,RF,DH - NYY
Aaron Judge followed up his MVP-caliber 2025 with another elite power profile, delivering 53 HR, 1.144 OPS, and a career-best 12 SB. His 2026 projections still anticipate slight regression & around 43 HR and a .285 AVG, but the underlying rates (elite barrel%, top-tier OBP stability) remain intact. Even with natural aging curves factored in, Judge projects as one of the safest four-category anchors in fantasy. He remains a first-round bat with minimal risk thanks to bankable power and sustainable plate discipline.

3.
Bobby Witt Jr.
SS - KC
Bobby Witt Jr. solidified his status as a top-tier fantasy building block, finishing 2025 with 31 HR, 49 SB, and a .298 average while cutting his chase rate for the second straight season. Projections for 2026 keep him squarely in the elite tier with 30+ HR, 40+ SB, and strong run production. The continued gains in swing decisions and contact quality suggest his breakout is fully sustainable. Witt is a top-three overall fantasy pick with league-winning category balance.
|
|
4.
Juan Soto
LF,RF - NYM
Juan Soto's first season with the Mets produced 43 HR, 37 SB, and a .396 OBP, marking his highest fantasy ceiling since 2021. His 2026 projections dial back the steals (a common trait across projection systems) but still expect mid-30s HR, with a slight batting-average uptick. The plate discipline remains near flawless, and his run-production environment should stay strong. Soto enters 2026 as a high-floor, high-ceiling first-round hitter whose across-the-board contributions make him one of the safest early picks.
|
|
5.
Jose Ramirez
3B,DH - CLE
Jose Ramírez remained one of fantasy's most reliable five-category contributors in 2025, once again clearing 30 HR while adding strong run production and double-digit steals. His 2026 projections show only mild age-related regression, with power and speed both expected to remain intact thanks to elite contact quality and plate discipline. The year-over-year stability in his batted-ball profile reinforces his high floor. Ramírez continues to profile as a safe first-round cornerstone, especially valuable in formats that reward category balance.
|
|
6.
Ronald Acuna Jr.
RF - ATL
Ronald Acuna Jr.'s 2025 was uneven as he worked his way back from knee surgery, flashing his MVP-level ceiling early before fading in the second half. Looking ahead to 2026, fantasy projections still view him as a first-round caliber talent, forecasting roughly 135-145 games with elite across-the-board production in the neighborhood of 30 homers, 90 runs, 90 RBI, and 20-plus steals. Durability remains the clear risk. He has topped 150 games only twice outside of the shortened 2020 season, but the per-game impact is still unmatched when he's on the field. If Acuna slips even slightly in drafts due to health concerns, he's a strong pick under the "anyone can get hurt" philosophy. However, managers who prefer safer volume can justify pivoting to another elite bat.
|
|
7.
Julio Rodriguez
CF - SEA
Julio Rodriguez posted a strong but slightly underwhelming 2025 relative to his sky-high expectations, as his power output plateaued despite excellent durability and counting stats. The 2026 projections forecast a modest power rebound into the low-30s with continued double-digit steals. His underlying contact metrics remain strong, but launch-angle inconsistency has capped his home-run ceiling year over year. Rodríguez remains a foundational fantasy outfielder, though he now projects closer to the back half of the first round than the very top.
|
|
8.
Elly De La Cruz
SS - CIN
Elly De La Cruz's 2025 season failed to showcase his elite fantasy ceiling. Fantasy managers expecting him to shore up the stolen base category were disappointed to see them drop from 67 to 37. However, after the season, the Reds revealed ELDC had played through a left quad strain for the entire second half, which is certainly supported by his first-half/second-half splits. Swing-and-miss remains part of his profile, though he did get his strikeout rate below 30% for the first time. His 2026 projections expect modest gains in efficiency rather than raw volume, with a stabilized strikeout rate supporting slightly better average and on-base results. The year-over-year trend in contact quality is encouraging, even if volatility persists. Elly remains a category-warping fantasy asset whose value hinges on embracing the variance.
|
|
9.
Kyle Tucker
RF,DH - LAD
Kyle Tucker delivered another well-rounded fantasy season in 2025, pairing plus power with double-digit steals and elite run production. He also delivered another season of murky injuries that diminished his output. His 2026 projections remain remarkably stable, reflecting how consistent his plate discipline and contact quality have been year over year. While there's little growth left in the profile, there's also minimal downside other than the injury history. Tucker signed with the Dodgers, a landing spot that only helps his value, as his profile is that of a safe early-round outfielder who fits seamlessly into any roster build.
|
|
10.
Fernando Tatis Jr.
RF - SD
After two uneven seasons, Fernando Tatis Jr. re-established himself as an elite five-category force in 2025 and projects to remain there in 2026. Projections call for another 30-plus homer, 25-steal campaign with triple-digit runs atop the Padres lineup, supported by strong on-base skills and premium batted-ball quality. His improved plate discipline and reduced strikeout rate from last season point to a more stable batting-average floor than in earlier seasons. At the same time, underlying metrics suggest his power output still has room to grow. Entering his age-27 season with his role and health stabilized, Tatis profiles as a legitimate Top-5 overall fantasy upside play in 2026 drafts.
|
|
11.
Gunnar Henderson
SS - BAL
Gunnar Henderson backed up his 2024 breakout with a season during which he says he had a shoulder impingement for almost 75% of the year. His power dipped considerably, and even though he still stole 30 bags, it was obvious something was off. His 2026 projections expect a bounce-back year, projecting elite power production and strong run totals. Year-over-year gains in swing decisions suggest his profile is fully established rather than volatile. Shortstop is a stacked position, but Henderson remains one of the elite options for those looking to secure it early.
|
|
12.
Corbin Carroll
CF,RF - ARI
Corbin Carroll made a noticeable jump in power in 2025, setting career bests with 31 home runs, 84 RBI, a .541 slugging percentage, and a 14.5% barrel rate. The added thump came with a higher strikeout rate (23.8%), but the tradeoff paid off as he still delivered elite all-around production, scoring 107 runs and swiping 32 bases. After an injury-marred 2024, his batting average bounced back from .231 to .259. Heading into his age-25 season, Carroll had been projected to come within striking distance of a rare 30 HR / 100 RBI / 100 R / 30 SB campaign, but a Spring Training injury to his hamate bone could impact his power output, moving him down in drafts and making him riskier than he was before.
|
|
13.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
1B,DH - TOR
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. rebounded nicely in 2025, hitting .292 with 23 HR, and his 2026 projections expect his power to climb back over 30 HR. His contact quality improved year over year, driven by more line-drive contact and a stabilizing strikeout rate. The projected power bounce is supported by underlying metrics, suggesting 2025 may have been closer to his floor than his median outcome. Vladdy profiles as a strong early-round value with legitimate top-five 1B upside if the HR surge materializes.
|
|
14.
Junior Caminero
3B - TB
Junior Caminero's first full MLB season in 2025 delivered flashes of elite raw power but came with expected growing pains in plate discipline. He hit 45 home runs, drove in 110, and scored 93 times. His barrel rate was a fantastic 14% with a 51.4% hard-hit rate. The power is very real. However, in 2026, the Rays shift out of the minor league park they played in and back to one of the worst hitting parks in the majors. His 2026 projections anticipate a small reduction in home runs because of this park switch; however, they also suggest improvement in his ratios as his approach matures in his age-22 season. The underlying exit velocity and hard-hit gains year over year support the power breakout narrative. Caminero profiles as a high-upside player at a weak position whose fantasy value rises quickly if the strikeout rate continues to normalize.
|
|
15.
Nick Kurtz
1B - ATH
Nick Kurtz's 2025 rookie season showed the potential that made him a top prospect, highlighted by strong on-base skills but uneven in-game power as he adjusted to MLB pitching. His 2026 projections anticipate a small step forward in home runs, but his .290 batting average is a mirage (xBA of .249). The allure of what he is capable of will drive up his price on draft day, and it is difficult to argue with that dream as the A's continue to play 81 games in Sacramento. The volatility is real, and at age 23, he still has some growing pains to come. Even with all that, though, he'll go in the second round in 12-team leagues, so decide quickly if you want that on your squad.
|
|
16.
Cal Raleigh
C,DH - SEA
Cal Raleigh had the year of his life in 2025, smacking 60 home runs while batting .247, far and away his best batting average ever. He drove in 125 and scored 110 times for a Seattle Mariners team that came very close to the World Series. Catcher is such a thin position that it is tempting to spend an early-round pick on Raleigh to be able to set-and-forget the position. His 2026 projections again place him among the position's home run leaders, with playing time security supporting strong counting stats, but we aren't going to see a repeat of his career year, and that is the current draft cost for the Big Dumper. Do you still want to spend a second-round pick on him if he's "only" getting you 40 homers with a .230 batting average? If so, he's easily the best catcher on the board. If not, wait three or four rounds to pick from the second tier.
|
|
17.
Jackson Chourio
LF,CF,RF - MIL
Jackson Chourio delivered a sophomore campaign that closely mirrored his rookie output. He again finished with 21 home runs, pairing them with 21 stolen bases after posting a 21/22 line the year before. His run and RBI totals barely budged as well, crossing the plate 88 times with 78 RBIs after scoring 80 runs and driving in 79 as a rookie. Even his rate stats stayed remarkably steady, as he slashed .270/.308/.463 in 2025 following a .275/.327/.464 line in 2024. Chourio did appear in 17 fewer games this past season, which makes the underlying production more intriguing. When scaled to a full workload, a 25/25 season is well within reach. Assuming roughly 140 games in 2026, fantasy managers should expect similar overall numbers, with a reliable 20/20 floor and a batting average in the .270 range. That profile makes Chourio a strong five-category contributor, even if he hasn't yet blossomed into the elite fantasy force some anticipated.
|
|
18.
Jazz Chisholm Jr.
2B,3B - NYY
Jazz Chisholm's 2025 season was a reminder of both his upside and volatility, as power-speed contributions were once again offset by durability concerns and streaky efficiency. His 2026 projections bake in similar power and speed totals with right around 600 plate appearances, reflecting ongoing availability risk. When on the field, his per-game fantasy production remains strong, particularly in steals. Chisholm is best approached as a ceiling play rather than a foundational early-round option, but qualifying at third base does bump him up a few spots on draft boards.
|
|
19.
Kyle Schwarber
LF,DH - PHI
Kyle Schwarber's 2025 profile remained extreme but effective, delivering elite home-run volume and run production while continuing to drag batting average, though not as much as in the past. He played in all 162 games, hit 56 home runs, drove in an MLB-leading 132, and scored 111 runs. His 2026 projections again place him among the league leaders in homers, with OBP formats propping up his overall value. Year over year, the power output has proven remarkably stable despite contact volatility. Schwarber remains a roster-construction play who fits best on teams built to absorb average risk in exchange for top-tier power.
|
|
20.
Pete Alonso
1B - BAL
Pete Alonso once again supplied premium power in 2025, but continued erosion in batting average and on-base skills limited his category impact. His 2026 projections still forecast upper-tier home-run totals, though with muted run production compared to his peak seasons. The year-over-year trend shows narrowing fantasy utility as his value becomes increasingly HR-dependent. Alonso profiles best as a targeted power injection rather than a lineup anchor.
|
|
21.
Francisco Lindor
SS - NYM
Francisco Lindor remained a Mr. Consistent in 2025, once again delivering strong power-speed production with elite durability at shortstop. His 2026 projections had shown minimal regression, closer to a 25/25 season, supported by premium lineup placement and consistent plate discipline. However, the hamate bone injury in Spring Training threatens his counting stat totals, particularly in the power category. He is still a top-tier shortstop, but comes with more risk now than in previous seasons.
|
|
22.
Ketel Marte
2B,DH - ARI
The list of elite second basemen in 2026 fantasy baseball looks to be about three players long, and Ketel Marte is at the top of the list, depending on how you feel about Jazz Chisholm Jr. Marte offers an excellent barrel rate (13.5%) and an elite hard hit rate (47%) at the position, while also providing a boon in batting average (career .281 hitter). The downside is there, however. Marte is on the wrong side of 30, and the number of games he's played in has gone from 150 to 136 to 126 in the last three years. Still, you're not getting 30 home runs from many second basemen, and batting in between Geraldo Perdomo and Corbin Carroll should help his counting stats. Marte's biggest issue is health; if you draft him, prepare for at least one IL stint during the season. Otherwise, he's as good as they come.
|
|
23.
Trea Turner
SS - PHI
Trea Turner's age-32 season was a clear bounce-back, as he hit .304/.355/.457 with 36 stolen bases and a top-five MVP finish, reaffirming that his elite speed remains fully intact. While the power dipped to 15 homers, his improved on-base skills and renewed aggressiveness on the bases helped offset the decline and restored his five-category profile. Defensive metrics also stabilized after a rough 2023-24 stretch, supporting everyday shortstop volume and lineup security. As long as the speed holds near the top of the league, Turner remains a high-floor fantasy anchor with upside tied to any rebound in home-run output.
|
|
24.
Yordan Alvarez
LF,DH - HOU
Yordan Alvarez is shaping up as one of the more polarizing draft-day decisions in 2026 fantasy leagues. After an injury-marred 2025 season burned managers who invested a first- or early second-round pick, Alvarez now projects as a rebound bat with elite per-game production when healthy. Projection systems still view him as a middle-of-the-order force capable of strong four-category output, supported by his consistently elite plate skills and long track record of hard contact. The main complication is positional flexibility: Alvarez is expected to qualify only at DH in most formats, effectively locking him into a UTIL role and increasing roster rigidity. That added risk will likely suppress his ADP, but entering his age-29 season, the underlying talent suggests a strong bounce-back is well within reach. If the discount reflects health concerns rather than skill erosion, Alvarez becomes a calculated upside play worth considering at the right price.
|
|
25.
Zach Neto
SS - LAA
If Zach Neto had stayed healthy in 2025, it would have been fascinating to see where his numbers would have ended up. As it was, in 128 games, he hit 26 home runs, scored 82 runs, drove in 62 from the leadoff spot, and stole 26 bases. Neto barrels the ball extremely well (14.0%) and is above average in HardHit rate at 46.6%. His batting average in the .250 range won't ruin your averages, and if the steals keep up, he could be a major player in the busy shortstop landscape of 2026 fantasy baseball. He is currently going in the third round of drafts, but a full season could provide a 30/30, which is valuable at any position.
|
|
26.
Manny Machado
3B - SD
There is consistent, and then there is Manny Machado. In his age-32 season, Machado played in 159 games, hitting 27 home runs, scoring 91 times, driving in 95, and had a slash line of .275/.335/.460. (His slash line in 2024 was .275/.325/.472.) His home run total was the lowest since 2014 (ignoring 2020), but he actually barreled the ball (12.9%) and had his highest HardHit rate (51.5%) since 2021. The Padres lineup is aging, but Machado is still projected to bat behind Fernando Tatis Jr. and Jackson Merrill, which should lead to plenty of counting stats. Depending on how you feel about Junior Caminero, Machado is either the second or third-best third baseman in 2026 fantasy baseball and a solid early-round pick.
|
|
27.
Matt Olson
1B - ATL
Matt Olson's 2025 results fell short of his peak power standards, but remained consistent year over year. For the fourth year in a row, the 32-year-old played in all 162 games and flirted with another 30/100/100 season. His 2026 projections still forecast elite home run totals and strong RBI production, supported by consistent barrel rates and everyday cleanup duties in Atlanta. Olson's 2025 batting average (.272) was buoyed by a .333 BABIP, so expect regression to around the .250 mark this year. His power floor is among the safest at the position. Olson profiles as a reliable early-round source of HR and RBI, particularly valuable in formats that de-emphasize average.
|
|
28.
Bryce Harper
1B - PHI
Bryce Harper remained an elite middle-of-the-order force in 2025, pairing strong on-base skills with premium power despite minor durability interruptions. His 2026 projections continue to support top-tier production, with stable home run output and run production driven by an excellent walk rate and hard-contact profile. While his speed contribution has tapered off, Harper's efficiency as a run producer remains intact thanks to consistent barrel rates and a favorable lineup context in Philadelphia. Fantasy managers should view him as a high-floor early-round anchor whose value is safest in OBP formats but still strong in standard leagues, especially if his health cooperates.
|
|
29.
James Wood
LF,DH - WSH
James Wood was on a legitimate MVP pace through the first half of the 2025 campaign before a sharp second-half regression cooled the hype. He hit .278 with 24 home runs, 12 steals, 59 runs scored, and 69 RBIs early on, but his production dipped significantly down the stretch. Over the remainder of the season, Wood slashed just .223 with seven homers, 28 runs, 25 RBIs, and three stolen bases while being caught three times.
Despite finishing with strong overall totals, the 22-year-old was a liability for fantasy managers late in the year and carried a hefty 32.1% strikeout rate. Still, durability and elite batted-ball metrics stand out: Wood appeared in 157 games, posted a 16.3% barrel rate, a massive 56.3% hard-hit rate, and an .825 OPS. The talent is undeniable, and the ceiling remains enormous—he's best viewed as an OF2 in drafts, with hopes that 2026 delivers the full breakout. |
|
30.
Pete Crow-Armstrong
CF - CHC
It's almost guaranteed that Pete Crow-Armstrong will be front and center in every "Potential Bust" or "Was it legit?" debate heading into 2026 drafts. To be clear, the 23-year-old delivered a monster stat line: 35 home runs, 95 RBIs, 91 runs scored and 35 stolen bases — production that firmly lands in OF1/OF2 territory. Had the season ended at the All-Star break, we'd likely be discussing whether he deserved first-round consideration. The problem is what followed. His second half unraveled, highlighted by an August stretch in which he logged 112 plate appearances but managed just one homer and five RBIs — a frustrating downturn for fantasy managers trying to make a playoff push. The most reasonable expectation for 2026 is something between his scorching first half and difficult second half. Projections peg him closer to a 20 HR, 75 RBI, 75 R, 30 SB profile — still a valuable fantasy contributor at the right draft price. The concern is cost. There will be managers willing to draft him as a budding MVP candidate. It's wiser to let someone else pay that premium and pivot to safer value elsewhere.
|
|
31.
Brent Rooker
LF,RF,DH - ATH
Credit the Athletics (and Nick Kurtz) for giving fantasy managers a welcome stretch of "Brent Rooker the outfielder," which added some valuable roster flexibility. While Rooker couldn't quite replicate his breakout 2024 campaign, he still delivered strong power production in 2025. He finished with 30 home runs, 89 RBI, and 92 runs scored, posting a .262/.335/.479 slash line. His strikeout rate dipped to 22.2%, a change that may have slightly capped his power output, and it wouldn't be surprising to see that number drift back toward his career norm around 28%. Even so, Rooker benefits from hitter-friendly conditions in Sacramento and a spot in the heart of a lineup that ranked fourth in MLB with a .431 team slugging percentage. With that context, his counting stats should remain reliable, keeping Rooker firmly on the fantasy radar for 2026.
|
|
32.
Rafael Devers
1B,DH - SF
Rafael Devers forced his way out of Boston early in the year and landed in the less fantasy-friendly environment of San Francisco. His numbers held steady for the most part, producing 35 home runs, 99 runs, and 109 RBI, though his batting average was the lowest since 2018. His Barrel percentage jumped from 13% to 16%, and his HardHit rate leapt to 56.1%, both the highest of his career. Projections have him essentially continuing on with these numbers, and at a thinner 1B than expected, Devers is a sneaky pick currently going in the fifth round.
|
|
33.
Mookie Betts
SS - LAD
Whether Father Time came calling or it was just a down year, Mookie Betts was one of the bigger disappointments in 2025. In his age-32 season, he saw a drop in his walk rate and posted the lowest batting average of his career. He also suffered a power outage, hitting 20 home runs across 150 games; by comparison, he hit 19 in 2024 across only 116 games. His HardHit rate plummeted to 35.8%, continuing a three-year decline. However, he still bats in the Dodgers lineup, scoring 95 runs and driving in 82 for the World Champions. He will only qualify at shortstop, a much deeper position than second base, in 2026. He still has plenty of value, but don't draft him based on his name alone. We've seen the best Betts has to offer.
|
|
34.
Wyatt Langford
LF,CF - TEX
Wyatt Langford logged the same number of games in his sophomore campaign with Texas as he did during his rookie season, but his underlying production trended in the right direction. He finished with 22 home runs and 22 stolen bases, both modest step-ups from his 2024 totals. His on-base percentage climbed from .325 to .344, while his slugging percentage improved from .415 to .431. Although his overall counting stats dipped, that decline can largely be traced to a Rangers offense that failed to meet expectations. As he heads into his age-24 season, further growth looks likely, with a realistic path to a 25-HR, 20-SB profile as he continues to establish himself at the big-league level. The breakout feels inevitable—it's just a question of timing.
|
|
35.
Roman Anthony
LF,CF,RF - BOS
Roman Anthony wasted little time making an impact in Boston, thriving over a 71-game stretch before an oblique injury sidelined him for the postseason. He delivered on the hype, posting a .292/.396/.463 slash line while serving as the Red Sox's catalyst atop the lineup. Although the sample was limited, his underlying metrics jumped off the page, including a 15.5% barrel rate and a 60.3% HardHit rate. Some regression is likely, but the skill set is undeniable as he heads into his age-22 campaign. His .859 OPS mirrored what he showed in the minors, and a 20-homer, 10-steal season with around 90 runs and strong ratios is well within reach in 2026. If he can stay on the field, he should quickly emerge as the clear frontrunner for AL Rookie of the Year honors.
|
|
36.
Freddie Freeman
1B - LAD
Freddie Freeman remained a model of consistency in 2025, combining a strong batting average, on-base skills, and run production near the top of the Dodgers lineup. The only concerning stat on his profile was a large jump in strikeout rate to 20.4%, the first time since 2016 that it crossed the 20-percent mark. His 2026 projections show only modest age-related regression. If you draft him, you need to bake in lowered expectations regarding his consistency (147 games played each of the last two years) and fewer counting stats. Freeman remains a solid early-round corner infielder in fantasy, even factoring in that he will turn 37 in September, but he is not the pillar that he once was.
|
|
37.
Riley Greene
LF,CF,RF,DH - DET
Riley Greene built on his breakout 2024 with another strong campaign in 2025, though it came with some noticeable tradeoffs. Batting mostly in the cleanup spot, he launched 36 home runs and knocked in 111 runs while posting a team-best .806 OPS. That power surge represented a 33% jump in homers, but it was paired with a spike in strikeouts, as his K-rate climbed to 30.7%. At the same time, his walk rate dipped from 11% to 7%, which dragged down his overall slash line more than fantasy managers would have liked. The underlying power metrics remain excellent—Greene posted a 17.1% barrel rate and a 45.5% hard-hit rate—supporting the production. While he falls just short of true OF1 territory, he enters his age-25 season firmly near the top of the OF2 tier.
|
|
38.
Austin Riley
3B - ATL
If you're looking for candidates for Comeback Player of the Year, Austin Riley should probably be on it. Riley's age-28 season was cut short by an abdominal injury that cost him almost one-third of the season, sapped his power, and caused his strikeout rate to jump to 28.6%. It was his second injury-shortened year in a row, but the underlying metrics suggest the bounceback is coming. Riley still had an elite 15.2% barrel rate and 50.2% HardHit rate, and his xSLG was 30 points higher than actual. Assuming he is able to return to the player he was from 2021-2023, expect another 30 home runs and 90 runs/RBIs. He should be the fourth third baseman off the board, and you can get him much later than the other three, making him a borderline early-round sleeper candidate.
|
|
39.
Josh Naylor
1B,DH - SEA
Let's start with the important part: Josh Naylor will not steal 30 bases again in 2026. With a previous high of 10, the 30 was a gift to managers who drafted him and will most likely be the outlier of his career. Naylor did sacrifice power in his time between Arizona and Seattle, hitting only 20 home runs after smacking 31 the year before. The .295 average helped offset this to some degree, but as a career .269 hitter, this is also suspect to continue. Even though he will only be 29 this season, the return to Seattle limits the upside we can expect. He's more of an avoid, unless he falls in drafts.
|
|
40.
Jackson Merrill
CF - SD
Multiple trips to the injured list cut short what could have been a breakout campaign for the 22-year-old, holding Jackson Merrill to 115 games with 16 home runs and just one stolen base. Entering 2026 healthy, he's a strong bet to rebound toward his 2024 production. While he's unlikely to be a major contributor on the bases, a season in the range of 25 homers with around 80 runs and 80 RBI is well within reach. His expected batting average and slugging percentage both outpaced his actual results, pointing to poor fortune layered on top of the injury issues. Merrill still offers the highest ceiling among his peers and could push into OF2 value if everything clicks, though he's best drafted as an OF3 with upside baked in.

Jarren Duran
LF,CF - BOS
After a breakout 2024, Jarren Duran regressed in 2025. His power and speed dipped to 16 home runs and 24 steals after posting 21 long balls and 34 swipes the year prior. While his RBI total climbed from 75 to 84, his run production fell by 25, influenced in part by injuries throughout the lineup and the midseason trade of Rafael Devers. Heading into 2026, Duran projects more in line with his 2025 output. He remains a viable OF3 option, though he could fall outside the top 24 outfielders as he enters his age-29 campaign.

Brice Turang
2B - MIL
Fantasy managers who drafted Brice Turang, hoping for a repeat of his 50-SB season in 2024, may have been disappointed in the drop to 24, but they got a whole lot more than expected everywhere else. Turang improved in almost every metric, jumping to 18 home runs thanks to a leap in HardHit rate from 29.7% to 47.4%. He batted an elite .288, ranking second at the position, and the 24 steals were still fifth on the list. At only age 26, Turang should bat behind Jackson Chourio and in front of William Contreras and Christian Yelich, an excellent spot to pick up counting stats. At the weakest position in fantasy, Turang may be the only one to offer something in all five categories and is the last of the three in the top tier.

William Contreras
C,DH - MIL
William Contreras took a small step back in 2025, with his OPS dipping to .754 as his ISO fell to .140 despite continued growth in plate discipline (career-best 12.7% BB rate, sub-19% K rate). The underlying skills remain strong: his contact quality stayed well above league average (91.1 mph EV, 48.6% hard-hit), and his power downturn looks more variance-driven than structural after back-to-back elite seasons in 2023-24. The 2026 projections point to a rebound toward his established .360+ OBP profile with mid-20s homer upside, supported by premium volume at a scarce catcher position. Given his durability, lineup role, and stable skills, Contreras profiles as a high-floor catcher with bounce-back upside and remains one of the safest investments at the position.

CJ Abrams
SS - WSH
CJ Abrams' 2025 stats look similar to the two years before. In 635 plate appearances, he hit 19 home runs, stole 31 bases, and slashed .257/.315/.433. He did see a jump in his runs scored (92), presumably because of James Wood hitting behind him. Fantasy managers should be aware that all of his expected numbers were lower than his actuals, and his barrel rate and HardHit rate are nothing to write home about. He will steal 30+ bases, pop around 20 dingers, and the top of the Nationals lineup has worlds of potential. It's just hard to swallow the high price tag in such a deep position.

45.
Cody Bellinger
LF,CF,RF - NYY
Cody Bellinger silenced doubts during his stint in New York, showing that his resurgence in Chicago was no fluke. He finished the season with 29 home runs, 98 RBIs, 89 runs scored, and 13 stolen bases, while posting a strong .272/.334/.480 slash line. His batted-ball quality also trended in the right direction, as his HardHit rate climbed by five percentage points to 37.9%.
As he enters his age-30 campaign, his return to the Bronx is a boon to his fantasy value. A baseline projection in the range of 25 home runs with roughly 80 runs and 80 RBIs is a fair starting point. While his recent production has been far more stable, the downturns from 2021 and 2022 still loom as a reminder of his volatility. Fantasy managers should value the upside—but avoid paying a premium on draft day. |

46.
Vinnie Pasquantino
1B,DH - KC
Vinnie Pasquantino showed us the power we'd been hoping for in 2025, hitting 32 home runs and driving in 113. He barrels the ball well (10.8%), and he offers a decent batting average in the .265 range. Batting behind Bobby Witt Jr. and the seemingly ageless Sal Perez will never be a bad thing for counting stats. If you wait until the middle rounds, Pasquantino is in the last of the tier to be a true anchor at first base in 2026.

47.
Geraldo Perdomo
SS - ARI
Geraldo Perdomo delivered a true breakout in 2025, erupting for a .290/.389/.462 slash with 20 homers, 27 steals, and 100 RBI while finishing fourth in MVP voting. After previously profiling as an OBP-focused table-setter, he made tangible gains in both power and aggressiveness on the bases, turning him into a legitimate five-category contributor. His elite plate discipline (94 walks vs. 83 strikeouts) gives the profile strong stability, even if some power regression follows. Entering his age-26 season, Perdomo looks like one of fantasy's safest high-end shortstops with upside tied to lineup context and continued run-production growth.
|

48.
Ben Rice
C,1B,DH - NYY
Ben Rice followed a rough 2024 debut with a legitimate breakout in 2025, slashing .255/.337/.499 with 26 homers and a 131 OPS+ across 138 games. The power spike was supported by improved contact quality and a manageable strikeout rate, turning him from replacement-level depth into a middle-of-the-order threat. Dual eligibility at catcher and first base quietly boosts his fantasy value, especially in formats where offensive production behind the plate is scarce. While his defensive profile may keep him rotating between DH and multiple positions, Rice's age-26 surge makes him an appealing upside target with room for further growth if the plate discipline gains hold.
|

49.
Shea Langeliers
C - ATH
Shea Langeliers took a significant step forward in 2025, posting career-best marks across the board with a .277/.325/.536 slash, 31 homers, and sharp gains in contact quality. His strikeout rate dropped to 19.7% (down from 27.2% in 2024) while maintaining strong power indicators, including a .260 ISO and near-elite hard-hit rate for the position. The improved approach and BABIP rebound (.290) support much of the batting average growth, not just a fluky power spike. With 2026 projections reinforcing him as a 25-30 HR catcher with playable ratios, Langeliers has firmly elevated himself into the upper tier at a thin fantasy position.

50.
Maikel Garcia
2B,3B,SS,OF - KC
Maikel Garcia took a massive step forward in 2025, transforming from a speed-first table-setter into a well-rounded fantasy contributor with a .286/.351/.449 line, 16 homers, and 23 steals. The offensive breakout was backed by real skill growth, including a sharp jump in on-base ability and contact quality after a down 2024. His elite defensive versatility locked in everyday playing time, which allowed the counting stats to fully surface across a full season. At just 26 years old, Garcia now profiles as a high-floor, multi-category infielder with sneaky upside rather than a niche speed play.
|
|
51.
Corey Seager
SS - TEX
Corey Seager followed up his MVP-caliber 2023-24 run with another elite per-game season in 2025, posting a .271/.373/.487 slash with a 151 OPS+ despite being limited to 102 games. His plate discipline continued to improve, as he set a career high in walk rate while maintaining plus power and run production when healthy. Durability remains the lone concern, but his underlying offensive skills show no signs of erosion entering his age-32 season. In formats that can absorb some missed time, Seager remains one of the safest high-end fantasy bats at shortstop with league-winning upside on a per-plate-appearance basis.
|
|
52.
Bo Bichette
SS - NYM
After spending the first seven years of his career in Toronto, Bo Bichette signed a 3-year, $126 million deal with the Mets. He will presumably bat behind Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto, and he should pick up third base eligibility early in the 2026 season, making him much more attractive for fantasy managers. Bichette had a renaissance 2025 season, batting .311 after a miserable .225 in half a season before. He popped 18 home runs, drove in 94, and scored 78 runs. He continued his impressive HardHit rate at 48.8% and got on base at a .357 clip. While the Blue Jays' lineup was no slouch, batting behind Lindor and Soto should afford Bichette plenty of counting stat opportunities. A 20/80/80 season seems reasonable, but the boost to batting average is what makes him a valuable mid-round pick as your SS1.

53.
Jeremy Pena
SS - HOU
Jeremy Pena took a major step forward in 2025, posting career highs in batting average (.304), OBP (.363), slugging (.477), and OPS (.840) while cutting his strikeout rate and showing tangible growth in plate discipline. The power rebound (17 HR) combined with a repeatable 20-SB pace pushed him from a glove-first middle infielder into a true five-category contributor. Underlying contact quality and 2026 projections support most of the gains, even if some batting average regression is expected. With everyday shortstop duties locked in and peak-age growth still intact, Pena profiles as a stable top-tier fantasy shortstop rather than a one-year spike.

54.
Byron Buxton
CF - MIN
Byron Buxton appeared in 126 games in 2025 — his highest total since logging 140 contests in 2017 — and delivered one of the best seasons of his career. He earned an All-Star selection, picked up MVP consideration and took home a Silver Slugger after posting career highs with 35 home runs, 83 RBI and 97 runs scored. Buxton also swiped 24 bases without being caught and ranked fourth in the American League with a .878 OPS. The underlying metrics back it up, too, as he produced a 53.8% hard-hit rate and a 17.6% barrel rate. Even in a relative best-case scenario, he still missed nearly a quarter of the season due to various injuries. Buxton will be 32 on Opening Day in 2026, and his track record suggests IL stints are more expectation than exception. While any player can get hurt, some carry more baked-in risk than others. If he comes close to repeating his 2025 output, he has league-winning upside — just be careful about drafting him as if that outcome is the baseline.
|
|
55.
George Springer
LF,CF,RF,DH - TOR
George Springer silenced skeptics in 2025 with his strongest campaign since 2019, turning in a monster season at age 35. He appeared in 140 games, launching 32 home runs while scoring 106 runs, driving in 84, and swiping 18 bases. His .309/.399/.560 slash line was the best of his career, and his 166 wRC+ ranked third across MLB. The obvious question is how to value Springer heading into his age-36 season in 2026. A repeat batting average is unlikely, as his .309 mark was fueled by a .340 BABIP—well above his career norm. Most projections pull his power back into the mid-20s for home runs, but the strength of the lineup around him should help preserve strong run and RBI totals, along with roughly 15 stolen bases. If Springer can once again stay on the field for around 140 games, he remains a valuable fantasy asset. While a full encore of 2025 shouldn't be expected, even modest regression still leaves him among the more reliable contributors.

56.
Seiya Suzuki
LF,RF,DH - CHC
Seiya Suzuki delivered a wildly uneven 2025 campaign. He posted new career bests with 32 home runs and 103 RBIs, but the bulk of that damage came early, as 25 of those homers and 77 RBIs were recorded before the All-Star break. Like much of Chicago's lineup, Suzuki cooled off significantly in August, managing just one home run across 89 at-bats. The power surge came at a cost, as his batting average dipped to .245 after finishing above .280 in each of the previous two seasons. Entering his age-31 season and set to hit free agency in 2027, Suzuki could show a bit more urgency at the plate in 2026. Even without a major spike, fantasy managers can reasonably project something in the neighborhood of 25 homers, 75 runs, and 85 RBIs. He remains a steady draft option based on four years of reliable MLB production, with the upside of a potential contract-year push.
|

57.
Randy Arozarena
LF,CF - SEA
Randy Arozarena delivered one of his strongest fantasy campaigns in 2025, stuffing the stat sheet with 27 home runs, 95 runs scored, 76 RBI, and 31 stolen bases. Both the power and speed marks represented new career highs for the 30-year-old outfielder. While batting average will likely always be a mild drag on his profile, the underlying quality of contact remained excellent, highlighted by a .798 OPS, an 11.5% barrel rate, and a 50.6% hard-hit rate. He also remained a savvy and efficient threat on the bases, getting caught just six times. With a lineup that still offers plenty of run-producing potential, Arozarena profiles as a dependable OF2 option for 2026 fantasy drafts.
|

58.
Tyler Soderstrom
1B,LF - ATH
Fantasy managers who took a chance on Tyler Soderstrom in 2025 were rewarded with a breakout season. At just 23 years old, he delivered 25 home runs, drove in 93 runs, scored 74 times, swiped eight bases, and posted a strong .276/.346/.474 slash line. He made tangible progress cutting down his strikeouts while continuing to impact the ball at an elite level, ranking in the 86th percentile in hard-hit rate (49.8%). Encouragingly, his expected batting average and slugging percentage closely matched his actual production, suggesting the performance was well-earned. With projections calling for a comparable output in 2026 and the Athletics' hitters benefiting from games in Sacramento, Soderstrom enters his age-24 season as a dependable OF3 option.

59.
Alex Bregman
3B - CHC
Alex Bregman only appeared in 114 games for the Red Sox last season, but he cashed in during free agency with a five-year deal with the Cubs. Aside from 2025 and an injury-plagued 2021 season, Bregman has been steady in games played, and he's been a solid contributor, with a career slash line of .272/.365/.481. He will be 32 this season, so we've probably seen the best of him, but third base is not a particularly deep position. Projections have him with a 20/80/80 season, which is totally fine if you decide to wait until the middle rounds to fill that roster spot. Don't reach for him because of his name, but he fits the bill of "you know what you're gonna get" in 2026 fantasy.
|

60.
Hunter Goodman
C,DH - COL
Hunter Goodman broke out in 2025, turning everyday run at Coors into a 31-HR, 91-RBI campaign with a .278/.323/.520 slash and 120 OPS+. The skills growth backed it up: his rOBA jumped to .367 with a 124 Rbat+, while his average exit velocity (90.8 mph) and 47.3% hard-hit rate both cleared league norms. The strikeout rate remains elevated (26.3%) and his 5.7% walk rate caps the OBP ceiling, but a .243 ISO with consistent pull-side authority gives him bankable power in Colorado. For 2026, projections largely buy the power foundation while regressing the batting average closer to his career .248 mark, reflecting some BABIP normalization after last year's .331 clip. Qualifying at catcher enhances his fantasy utility, given the position's shallowness. Goodman profiles as a high-variance power bat whose home environment and batted-ball quality support another 25-30 homer season, but managers should price in batting average volatility rather than paying for a repeat of the .278 mark.
|

61.
Michael Harris II
CF - ATL
Michael Harris took another step back in 2025, slashing .249/.268/.409 with a career-worst 88 OPS+ despite playing 160 games. His plate discipline eroded further, as his walk rate cratered to 2.5% while his .281 BABIP and .295 rOBA both trended well below his rookie peak. The underlying quality of contact also dipped (43.6% HardHit, 89.4 mph EV), and his once-impactful baserunning regressed, leading to a sharp decline in overall offensive value. While the 2026 projections still forecast a return to 20/20 production, Harris is best viewed as a fantasy faller entering his age-25 season unless he meaningfully rebounds in approach and on-base skills.
|

62.
Oneil Cruz
CF - PIT
Oneil Cruz followed up his 2024 breakout (21 HR, 22 SB, .773 OPS, 114 OPS+) with a steep regression in 2025, batting just .200 with an 87 OPS+ despite swiping a career-high 38 bases. The underlying power metrics remain loud — his 95.8 mph average exit velocity and 56.9% hard-hit rate were both elite and actually improved year over year — but a .262 BABIP and persistent 32.0% strikeout rate cratered his overall production. While his 11.8% walk rate was a career best, the contact issues and declining run production (RE24: -5.45) highlight the volatility in his profile. Looking ahead, Cruz's 2026 projections suggest a rebound toward his 2024 form, banking on normalization in batting average with continued 20/30 upside. If the BABIP corrects even partially, his rare combination of top-of-scale power and speed makes him a prime fantasy rebound candidate with high-variance upside — but managers must build around the batting average risk.
|

63.
Eugenio Suarez
3B - CIN
Eugenio Suarez enjoyed a dramatic power resurgence in 2025, crushing 49 home runs with 118 RBI across 159 games while rebounding from a down 2023 season. Although the batting average remained volatile (.228 overall), his .526 slugging percentage and top-tier barrel production reaffirmed his value as a category-altering power bat. The strikeout rate is still elevated, keeping his floor low in average-based formats, but the run production and durability help offset the risk. The move to Cincinnati boosts his value compared to having re-signed in Seattle, simply from a ballpark perspective. Entering his age-34 season, Suarez profiles as a high-variance corner infielder whose fantasy value hinges on elite power holding steady despite age-related decline concerns.
|
|
64.
Nico Hoerner
2B - CHC
Nico Hoerner quietly delivered his best all-around season in 2025, pairing a career-high offensive impact (114 OPS+, 118 Rbat+) with elite contact skills and Gold Glove-caliber defense. His strikeout rate dipped to an excellent 7.6% while maintaining above-average run production and efficiency on the bases, reinforcing his high-floor fantasy profile. The 2026 projections largely stabilize his output rather than build in upside, but his strong plate skills and secure everyday role keep him valuable in batting average, runs, and steals. Entering a contract year, Hoerner has added motivation to sustain peak performance, even if his limited power caps category ceiling.
|
|
65.
Jose Altuve
2B,LF,DH - HOU
Jose Altuve's 2025 profile showed clear age-related erosion, with declining rOBA, reduced hard-hit rates, and a continued drop in stolen-base efficiency despite strong durability. While his contact skills remain above average, the quality of contact has flattened out, making his mid-20s home run totals harder to bank on going forward. The 2026 projections reflect this shift, leaning toward solid but unspectacular production with diminishing speed and only modest power. Altuve still offers batting average stability and run production in a strong lineup, but at his age, he profiles more as a floor play than a difference-maker in fantasy formats.
|
|
66.
Michael Busch
1B - CHC
Michael Busch has rapidly developed into one of fantasy's most reliable power bats, following a strong 2024 with a full-blown breakout in 2025 that featured 34 homers, a .523 slugging percentage, and a 147 OPS+. The jump in production wasn't empty volume. His rOBA and run value both spiked, confirming real growth in impact contact rather than a fluky power surge. While the strikeout rate remains elevated, Busch offsets it with solid on-base skills and elite durability, logging 150+ games in back-to-back seasons. At age 28, he's firmly established as a high-end fantasy first baseman whose profile now supports both a strong floor and a stable power ceiling.
|
|
67.
Yandy Diaz
1B,DH - TB
Yandy Diaz made the most of the Rays' season at George Steinbrenner Field, cracking the 25-HR mark for the first time in his career while maintaining a .300 average. With the return to much less hitter-friendly Tropicana Field, fantasy managers should not expect another 25 homers, but 20 is within reason. Diaz is a middle-round pick best used to boost batting average, but there is more power to be had elsewhere at the position.
|
|
68.
Willy Adames
SS - SF
Willy Adames continued to provide bankable power in 2025 with 30 home runs, but the batting average (.225) and elevated strikeout rate once again capped his overall fantasy ceiling. After a career year in 2024 that combined power, speed, and run production, the move into his age-29 season came with some efficiency loss despite strong volume and plate discipline (80 BB). The underlying profile still supports mid-20s to low-30s homer power in 2026, though projections point toward neutral batting average and reduced steals compared to his 2024 peak. Adames remains a dependable power-first shortstop in fantasy, but he's better valued as a solid floor option than a true breakout bat.
|
|
69.
Teoscar Hernandez
LF,RF - LAD
Teoscar Hernandez saw a dramatic step back in 2025 after posting a massive 25.6 offensive WAR the year before, finishing with just 0.4. His production dipped nearly across the board, and injuries limited him to 134 games. Hernández still managed 25 home runs with 89 RBI, scored 65 runs, and added five steals, but his efficiency cratered. He posted career lows with a .247/.285/.454 slash line, raising concerns about age-related decline as he enters his age-33 season. While hitting in the Dodgers lineup provides a strong run-producing environment, continued struggles could push him lower than a typical middle-of-the-order role. Power remains his calling card, but at this stage, Hernandez profiles best as a depth outfielder, ideally drafted as an OF3 or OF4 rather than a lineup anchor.
|
|
70.
Trevor Story
SS - BOS
Trevor Story's 2025 rebound was quietly impressive, as he logged a full season for the first time since 2021 and delivered 25 HR with a career-best 31 stolen bases, restoring much of his fantasy relevance. While the batting average (.263) and on-base skills remain below his Colorado peak, the power-speed blend at shortstop is once again intact when volume is present. Strikeouts remain elevated, but the counting stats were buoyed by durability and everyday role stability, which had been the primary concern the prior two seasons. Entering 2026, Story profiles as a high-variance but legitimate middle-infield upside play, with health, rather than skill erosion, still the defining risk.
|
|
71.
Salvador Perez
C,1B,DH - KC
Sal Perez remained remarkably durable in 2025 with 155 games played, but the underlying production continued to slide as his batting average fell to .236 and his OBP dipped below .290. While the raw power is still intact, 30 homers and 100 RBI, the overall offensive efficiency has flattened to league-average levels, limiting his advantage over younger catching options. His aggressive approach and declining contact quality leave little margin for error, especially as age-related regression becomes harder to ignore. Perez is still a volume-driven fantasy catcher with counting-stat value, but he now profiles best as a mid-tier option rather than a clear positional edge.
|

72.
Kyle Stowers
LF,CF,RF - MIA
Kyle Stowers finally translated his loud tools into production in 2025, slashing .288/.368/.544 with 25 home runs across 457 plate appearances for Miami. His underlying metrics support the breakout: a .391 rOBA and 148 Rbat+ were fueled by a career-best 10.5% walk rate, reduced 27.4% strikeout rate, and a .256 ISO with a 5.5% HR rate. The quality of contact remained strong (52.2% hard-hit rate), but the key shift was a more balanced batted-ball profile and improved swing decisions that allowed his power to play in games. Heading into 2026, projections expect some regression from the near-.900 OPS peak, but still forecast Stowers as a middle-of-the-order bat with 25-homer upside and above-average on-base skills. The elevated BABIP (.356) suggests the batting average could settle closer to the .260-.270 range, yet the gains in plate discipline and contact authority appear legitimate. He's best viewed as a solid OF3 with upside in five-outfielder formats, offering bankable power and run production as long as the improved approach holds.

Agustin Ramirez
C,DH - MIA
Agustín Ramírez took his lumps as a 23-year-old rookie in 2025, slashing .231/.287/.413 with 21 home runs and 16 steals across 136 games, good for a below-average 92 OPS+ and 89 Rbat+. The underlying data paints a more intriguing picture: a 90.8 mph average exit velocity and 47.2% hard-hit rate both comfortably exceeded league norms, while his .182 ISO suggests legitimate 25-homer upside if the batted-ball luck (.253 BABIP in 2025) normalizes. His aggressive approach (6.2% walk rate) caps his OBP floor, but a manageable 19.3% strikeout rate and strong 84.2% stolen-base success rate support continued category juice. With modest plate-discipline growth, the 2026 projections point toward improved run production and a step forward in overall efficiency, making Ramírez a clear fantasy sleeper entering his age-24 season. The power-speed blend is already bankable in standard formats, and any OBP rebound would push him into the top tier at his position.
|

75.
Drake Baldwin
C - ATL
Drake Baldwin broke out in 2025, finishing with a .274/.341/.469 slash line, 19 home runs and an .810 OPS (126 OPS+) across 446 plate appearances, good for 3.3 WAR and a runner-up Rookie of the Year finish. His underlying profile supports the production: a .358 rOBA (130 Rbat+), 91.7 mph average exit velocity and 49.6% hard-hit rate all comfortably cleared league norms, while his 15.2% strikeout rate was elite for a power-hitting catcher. Baldwin's balanced batted-ball distribution (23.1% LD, 48.7% GB, 24.9% FB) and strong situational metrics (26.68 RE24) point to a polished, sustainable offensive skill set rather than a fluky debut. For fantasy purposes, Baldwin is a clear riser at a thin catcher position. Catchers who combine above-average power (4.3% HR rate, .195 ISO) with strong contact skills are rare, and his everyday role in Atlanta further boosts counting-stat reliability. If the 2026 projections maintain anything close to his rookie rate production over a fuller workload, Baldwin profiles as a top-tier fantasy catcher with a stable floor and legitimate 20-25 home run upside.

76.
Will Smith
C - LAD
Will Smith rebounded in 2025 with one of the most efficient offensive seasons of his career, slashing .296/.404/.497 with a 152 OPS+ across 110 games. His underlying metrics fully supported the surge: a career-best 91.3 mph average exit velocity, 47.1% hard-hit rate, and .387 rOBA, while his walk rate jumped to 14.7% — well above league average and his career norm. The improved plate discipline helped offset a modest 20.4% strikeout rate, and his .345 BABIP wasn't entirely fluky given the quality of contact. Looking ahead to 2026, projections peg some batting average regression but maintain him as an elite offensive catcher thanks to stable power (mid-20s HR pace over a full season) and strong OBP skills in the middle of a loaded Dodgers lineup. His consistent fly-ball mix and above-average pull tendencies keep the power floor intact, while his role remains secure even with periodic DH days to preserve health. Smith should be drafted as a top-tier catcher in all formats, with OBP leagues especially benefiting from his elevated walk rate and run-production environment.

Brandon Nimmo
LF,CF - TEX
Brandon Nimmo remains one of fantasy baseball's quieter contributors, consistently delivering well-rounded production without much buzz. Now 32, he posted 25 home runs with 81 runs scored, 92 RBI, and 13 steals while batting .262/.324/.436—numbers that closely mirror his career norms. The one notable blemish was a career-low 7.7% walk rate, marking the first time it dipped below double digits. Heading into his age-33 season, expectations should be steady but cautious, especially after his move to Texas removes the lineup insulation he previously enjoyed hitting near Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto, making a modest step back in 2026 a reasonable assumption.

Luke Keaschall was highly productive in his 49-game debut in 2025, slashing .302/.382/.445 with a 135 Rbat+ and an elite 14% strikeout rate that underscores his advanced bat-to-ball skills. While his below-average 85.9 mph EV and modest 1.9% HR rate cap his power ceiling, his 26% line-drive rate and .340 BABIP support a high-contact, table-setting profile. He also went 14-for-17 on stolen base attempts (82.4% success rate), adding category juice that plays up in roto formats. With 2026 projections forecasting a significant increase in plate appearances and steady growth across the board, Keaschall profiles as a batting-average stabilizer with 20+ SB upside and emerging run-production value in deeper mixed leagues.

Jo Adell
CF,RF - LAA
Jo Adell took a legitimate step forward in 2025, clubbing 37 home runs with a .249 ISO and 112 Rbat+, both comfortably above league average. His quality-of-contact metrics backed it up, as he posted a career-best 91.7 mph average exit velocity and 50.1% hard-hit rate, signaling that the power surge was skill-driven rather than fluky. While the strikeout rate (26.4%) remains elevated and caps his batting average ceiling, the improved damage on contact supports his projected 30-plus homer output in 2026. Fantasy Riser: Adell has transitioned from post-hype lottery ticket to viable OF3 with impact power, though managers should still build around batting average volatility.

Ozzie Albies
2B - ATL
Ozzie Albies took a clear step back in 2025, slashing .240/.306/.365 with 16 homers after posting a 33-HR, .849 OPS campaign as recently as 2023. His ISO cratered to .124 (down from .233 in 2023), with a dip in average exit velocity (87.5 mph) and hard-hit rate (30.7%) driving the power regression. While he rebounded to 157 games and chipped in 14 steals, his 92 Rbat+ and declining run production reflected a more contact-oriented, lower-impact profile. The 2026 projections forecast a modest power rebound with improved run totals, but not a full return to peak production. Albies now profiles as a fantasy faller relative to his prime, settling in as a lower-end top-10 second baseman rather than a difference-making middle infield anchor.

Matt Chapman
3B - SF
Matt Chapman followed up his excellent 2024 with a solid but slightly muted 2025, as the power dipped to 21 home runs and the batting average slid to .231 despite a strong .340 OBP. Plate discipline remained a plus, and the underlying power was still present, but reduced games played and fewer counting stats capped his fantasy ceiling compared to the prior year. Third base remains a thinner position, which helps preserve his value even as the speed contribution continues to fade in his early 30s. Heading into 2026, Chapman profiles as a steady but unspectacular corner infielder, reliable for power and OBP formats, but unlikely to return to peak-level fantasy production.

Taylor Ward
LF - BAL
Once again, Taylor Ward delivered a season that was as maddening as it was productive for fantasy managers. He set career highs across the board, launching 36 home runs with 86 runs scored and 103 RBIs, while adding his usual handful of steals (four). The downside was a rough .228 batting average, a reminder of Ward's well-documented inconsistency. His month-to-month splits tell the story: he caught fire in May with a .255 average and 10 homers, only to cool off in June, hitting .204 with four long balls. There are reasons for optimism heading into 2026, including a contract-year motivation, an upgraded offensive environment after his move to Baltimore, and back-to-back healthy seasons. A 30-homer campaign with roughly 75-80 runs is within reach, but expecting another 100-RBI season is likely a stretch. If you roster Ward, prepare for volatility—smooth rides have never really been part of the package.

Ceddanne Rafaela
2B,CF - BOS
Ceddanne Rafaela took a meaningful step forward in 2025, emerging as a clear fantasy riser after trimming his strikeout rate from 26.4% in 2024 to 19.9% while boosting his ISO to .165. The improved contact quality (87.7 mph EV, 38.7% HardHit) and career-best 4.8% walk rate supported a jump to a .708 OPS and 4.7 WAR, with 16 homers and 20 steals across 156 games. While his .295 OBP still limits his runs ceiling in standard formats, Rafaela's elite defense secures everyday playing time, and his 80% SB success rate plus 65.9% extra-base-taken rate highlight impactful speed. If the 2026 projections hold near a 15-18 HR, 18-22 SB pace with incremental OBP growth, Rafaela profiles as a high-floor middle-round target whose category juice outweighs the modest plate-discipline concerns.

Jacob Wilson
SS - ATH
Jacob Wilson took a major step forward in 2025, posting a .354 rOBA and 127 Rbat+ over 523 plate appearances while finishing second in AL Rookie of the Year voting. His elite 7.5% strikeout rate and 84.1 mph average exit velocity underscore his contact-over-power profile, but a 52.4% ground-ball rate and modest 2.5% HR rate cap the overall ceiling. The 2026 projection (.296/.350/.435, 12 HR, 5 SB in 472 PA) reflects some batting average regression from a .317 BABIP, though his bat-to-ball skills should keep him a category stabilizer. Wilson is a fantasy riser in batting average and runs scored formats, but his limited hard-hit data (24.8%) suggests he's more of a high-floor MI option than a true breakout power candidate.

89.
Steven Kwan
LF - CLE
Steven Kwan took a step back offensively after three straight productive seasons. His lack of power continues to cap his ceiling, but he still contributed solid category juice with 81 runs scored, 21 steals, and a .272 batting average. Kwan's elite bat-to-ball skills remain intact, evidenced by an 8.7% strikeout rate, though his 7.9% walk rate ranked just 47th percentile per Statcast. Entering his age-28 season, there's room for his batting average and on-base percentage to rebound closer to prior highs. Slated to remain Cleveland's leadoff hitter, he should again flirt with 85 runs if the lineup cooperates. While Kwan remains a useful fantasy outfielder in the OF3/OF4 range, managers may find more upside among similarly priced options on draft day.

90.
Ian Happ
LF - CHC
After posting offensive WAR totals in the 17 range for three straight seasons, Ian Happ took a noticeable step back in 2025, finishing at 9.1. The decline was driven primarily by a sharp drop in stolen bases, as he went from regularly reaching double digits to just six. Otherwise, his production was largely unchanged. Happ finished with 23 home runs, 87 runs scored, 79 RBIs, and a .243/.342/.420 slash line. That profile is a reasonable expectation again in 2026. He has appeared in at least 150 games in four consecutive seasons, and Chicago continues to rely on his steady presence in the lineup. With free agency looming in 2027, there's also a chance for a modest uptick in power. Happ profiles as a dependable OF3 option for fantasy managers in 2026.

Jordan Westburg
2B,3B - BAL
Jordan Westburg followed up his 2024 All-Star breakout with another solid but less impactful 2025, as injuries limited him to 85 games and capped his counting stats. On a per-game basis, his power remained intact (17 HR, .457 SLG), but reduced doubles output and minimal speed kept him from taking the next step. His multi-position eligibility and steady contact quality help stabilize his fantasy floor, particularly in deeper formats. If he can stay healthy and reclaim a full-time role in Baltimore's crowded infield, Westburg still offers sleeper upside as a balanced power contributor entering his age-27 season.
|
|
93.
Willson Contreras
1B - BOS
Willson Contreras' fantasy profile changes meaningfully after his move to the Boston Red Sox, as first base eligibility removes the positional advantage that once made his bat stand out. His 2025 production remains solid by raw numbers, but the same power-and-average output now plays closer to replacement level at a deeper offensive position. The shift away from catcher should help with durability and volume, yet it also raises the bar for fantasy relevance compared to his peers. In 2026 drafts, Contreras is better viewed as a corner infield depth option than a lineup anchor, with real-life value exceeding his fantasy impact.
|
|
94.
Bryan Reynolds
LF,CF,RF,DH - PIT
After years of steady production, Bryan Reynolds showed real signs of decline. His strikeout rate climbed to 26.5% — a jump of roughly four percentage points — and he posted a career-worst .245/.318/.402 slash line. Playing in a Pittsburgh lineup that offers little support only adds to the downside. As he enters his age-31 season, fantasy managers should be prepared for increased inconsistency. Reynolds is still projected for around 20 home runs, but his run and RBI totals will suffer in a weak offense, and his batting average is more likely to settle near .250 than his career .271 mark. At this stage, he profiles better as an OF3 or OF4 rather than a reliable, every-week fantasy starter.
|
|
95.
Jurickson Profar
LF - ATL
Jurickson Profar landed a three-year contract with Atlanta but immediately ran into trouble, serving a PED suspension that limited him to 80 games in 2025. His offensive track record is unusual, with his 2024 breakout standing out as a clear outlier compared to the rest of his career. Even so, Profar can still provide fantasy value, especially in formats that require five outfielders. Reasonable expectations include around 20 home runs, 90 runs scored, and roughly 10 stolen bases, though his batting average is unlikely to be an asset given his career .245 mark. With Ronald Acuña Jr. back at full strength, Profar is expected to hit lower in the lineup, though his exact spot will depend on how much the rest of the Braves' offense bounces back from injuries and disappointing seasons. He profiles best as a fourth outfielder in fantasy lineups, with a path to OF3 production, but managers should not count on a repeat of his 2024 performance.
|

96.
Ivan Herrera
C,DH - STL
Ivan Herrera followed up his 2024 breakout with another step forward in 2025, logging 452 plate appearances and posting a .284/.373/.464 line with 19 home runs and a 140 Rbat+. His gains were backed by skills growth: a career-best 18.6% strikeout rate, 9.5% walk rate and 91.2 mph average exit velocity, along with a jump to a .180 ISO. While his BABIP dipped to .315, his rOBA (.372) and hard-hit rate (48.2%) supported the production, reinforcing that the bat is driving the value rather than batted-ball luck. The 2026 projections maintain him as an above-average offensive catcher with mid-to-high teens power and strong on-base skills, though a full repeat of last year's efficiency likely regresses slightly. Even with modest pull and fly-ball rates, Herrera's improving contact quality and stable plate discipline give him one of the higher offensive floors at the position. He only had 14 appearances at catcher in 2025, so check your league's position eligibility or prepare to have him only as a DH for a while into 2026.

Spencer Torkelson
1B - DET
Spencer Torkelson rebounded strongly in 2025, posting a career-best .240/.333/.456 slash with 31 homers and a 117 OPS+, reestablishing himself as a middle-of-the-order power bat after a disappointing, injury-shortened 2024. The plate discipline gains were real, as his walk rate climbed and his overall offensive value (rOBA and Rbat+) returned to comfortably above league average. FantasyPros 2026 projections build on that bounce-back, forecasting another 30-homer season with solid run production thanks to his locked-in everyday role at first base/DH. While batting average volatility remains part of his profile due to strikeouts, Torkelson's age-26 power prime makes him a stable corner-infield target with upside rather than the risky asset he appeared to be a year ago.

98.
Xavier Edwards
2B,SS - MIA
Xavier Edwards followed up a breakout 2024 (.328/.397/.423, 129 OPS+) with a heavier workload in 2025, logging 619 PA but seeing his efficiency normalize (.283/.343/.353, 94 OPS+). The batted-ball profile supports the pullback: his .330 BABIP was far less inflated than 2024's .398 mark, while his 84.5 mph average exit velocity and 7.0% ISO continue to cap his power ceiling. Encouragingly, he trimmed his strikeout rate to 14.2% and maintained strong contact skills, giving him a stable batting-average floor even if the run production remains modest. The 2026 projections lean into that profile — high-contact table-setter with limited pop but double-digit steal potential thanks to his above-average success rate and baserunning value. Edwards' fantasy value hinges on lineup spot and volume; if he sticks near the top of Miami's order, he's a useful MI target for managers chasing average and speed without sacrificing plate discipline. Just don't draft him expecting meaningful power growth — he's a category specialist, not a five-category contributor.

99.
Alec Burleson
1B,LF,RF,DH - STL
Alec Burleson may not carry the same buzz as some other OF3 or OF4 options, but his profile is trending in the right direction as he enters his age-27 season. He took a noticeable step forward in 2024, appearing in 139 games while posting 18 home runs, 69 RBI, and 54 runs scored, along with a .290/.343/.459 slash line and an .802 OPS. His appeal is rooted in strong contact skills, evidenced by a modest 14.5% strikeout rate, paired with enough power to contribute in multiple categories. Locked into a prominent spot near the top of St. Louis' lineup, Burleson offers inexpensive batting-average stability and quiet upside for fantasy managers in 2026 drafts.

Adley Rutschman
C - BAL
Adley Rutschman enters 2026 as a clear fantasy rebound candidate after a disappointing, injury-shortened 2025 season. His production dipped across the board (.220/.307/.366, 90 OPS+), driven in part by a career-low .240 BABIP and a sharp decline in run value (89 Rbat+), despite maintaining solid underlying quality of contact (89.4 mph EV, 38.6% HardHit). The erosion from his 2022-2023 peak — when he posted back-to-back seasons with a 127+ Rbat+ and elite OBP skills — raises some concern, but his plate discipline remains above league average and the power indicators weren't catastrophic. With 2026 projections forecasting a bounce-back toward his career norms, Rutschman profiles as a discounted catcher who could outperform his draft slot if the batted-ball luck normalizes.

Noelvi Marte
3B,RF - CIN
Noelvi Marte showed some growth in 2025, rebounding from a rough 2024 to post a .263/.300/.448 line with 14 homers and double-digit steals in just 90 games. The power-speed blend that made him a top prospect resurfaced, supported by a strong rOBA and near-league-average OPS+ despite an aggressive approach. Defensive versatility across third base and the outfield should help him maintain regular playing time, even if his glove remains a work in progress. FantasyPros 2026 projections reflect a young hitter still trending upward, making Marte an appealing upside play in deeper formats where counting stats and steals are at a premium.

Brandon Lowe
2B - PIT
Brandon Lowe rebounded in 2025, earning an All-Star nod while clubbing 31 home runs across 134 games, his highest total since 2021. His underlying metrics remained strong — a 91.1 mph average exit velocity and 46.7% hard-hit rate supported a healthy 5.6% HR rate — but a declining 6.9% walk rate and 26.9% strikeout rate capped his OBP at .307 despite a career-best .297 BABIP. The 2026 projections forecast another 30-homer campaign with a batting average in the .245-.255 range, reinforcing his profile as a power-first middle infielder with limited speed. Given his restored durability and steady batted-ball quality, Lowe profiles as a fantasy riser, particularly in formats that reward power from the second base slot, though his batting-average volatility keeps him just shy of elite-tier stability.

Jonathan Aranda
1B - TB
Jonathan Aranda broke out in 2025, slashing .316/.393/.489 with a 146 OPS+ across 422 plate appearances, supported by elite quality of contact (93.0 mph average exit velocity, 54.8% hard-hit rate). His .409 BABIP and 30.5% line-drive rate fueled the batting average spike, while his 147 Rbat+ confirms the impact was more than just surface-level production. The 2026 projections dial back the average but maintain strong on-base skills and mid-20s homer pace, reflecting some regression without dismissing the skill growth. With no speed component and most of his value tied to bat-first production, Aranda profiles as a high-floor corner infield option in OBP formats, though managers should price in batting-average normalization rather than paying for a repeat of the .300-plus mark.

Heliot Ramos
LF,CF,RF - SF
Heliot Ramos broke out in 2024 with a 129 Rbat+ and .200 ISO, but his 2025 follow-up was more solid than spectacular, as his rOBA dipped from .349 to .319 and his ISO fell to .144 despite a career-high 695 plate appearances. The good news is his underlying quality of contact held firm (91.8 mph average EV, 47.8% hard-hit rate), while his strikeout rate improved to 22.7%, nearly league average. A more contact-oriented, opposite-field-heavy approach (63.2% to center in 2025) capped his over-the-fence output, but the skills foundation remains stable. With 2026 projections forecasting mid-20s homer power and strong run production in an everyday role, Ramos profiles as a fantasy riser if the power ticks back closer to his 2024 level.

3B,LF,RF - TOR
Addison Barger took a significant step forward in 2025, improving across the board with a .243/.301/.454 slash, 21 homers, and a league-average 105 OPS+ after struggling mightily as a rookie. The power growth was especially encouraging, supported by a jump in extra-base hits and a rOBA that climbed back to league average. While his strikeout rate remains elevated, everyday playing time and defensive versatility at third base and the corner outfield helped solidify his role. Projections reflect cautious optimism, positioning Barger as a late-round sleeper with legitimate 20-plus homer upside if the plate discipline continues to stabilize.
|

115.
Bryson Stott
2B,SS - PHI
Bryson Stott took a step forward in 2025, rebounding from a down 2024 campaign to post a .257/.328/.391 line with 13 homers and 24 steals over 147 games. His underlying profile supports the modest bounce-back: a career-best 9.6% walk rate and improved .324 rOBA (95 Rbat+) were driven more by plate discipline than impact, as his 86.9 mph average exit velocity and 29.5% hard-hit rate remained well below league average. The shift toward more fly balls (29.2% FB rate, 0.68 GB/FB) helped stabilize his power output, but his .134 ISO still caps the ceiling. With 2026 projections forecasting another 20-plus steal season with double-digit homers and steady ratios, Stott profiles as a stable middle-infield contributor rather than a breakout bat.
|
|
116.
Gleyber Torres
2B - DET
Gleyber Torres reestablished himself as a reliable fantasy middle infielder in 2025 after a down 2024, showing improved plate discipline (career-best walk rate) and a rebound in overall run production following his move to Detroit. While the power remains well below his 2018-19 peak, his 2025 advanced profile points to solid contact quality and a more patient approach that supports a stable AVG/OBP floor. The 2026 projections reflect a continuation of that skill set rather than a return to 30+ homer upside, making him more valuable in OBP formats than standard roto leagues. With minimal speed and capped power, Torres profiles as a low-ceiling but steady fantasy contributor, best viewed as a post-hype sleeper for managers seeking middle-infield stability rather than upside.
|

117.
Royce Lewis
3B - MIN
Royce Lewis's elite upside remains undeniable, but his 2025 season underscored the growing gap between talent and fantasy reliability, as he posted a .237/.283/.388 line with diminished power and run production over 106 games. After a dominant 2023 breakout, his OPS and quality-of-contact metrics have trended downward for two straight seasons, largely tied to health interruptions and inconsistent timing at the plate. While his athleticism still shows up with occasional steals and defensive flexibility, the overall offensive profile has slipped closer to below league average. FantasyPros 2026 projections remain cautiously optimistic, but until Lewis can stay on the field and sustain his early-career power, he profiles as a high-variance pick whose draft cost may outweigh the floor in standard formats.
|
|
118.
Isaac Paredes
3B - HOU
Isaac Paredes followed up his 2023 breakout with another strong season in 2025, slashing .254/.352/.458 with 20 home runs and a 123 OPS+ in his first year with Houston. While the raw power dipped slightly from its peak, his elite plate discipline and pull-side power remained intact, keeping his rOBA and Rbat+ well above league average. The move to a strong lineup context helped stabilize his counting stats, reinforcing his profile as a reliable corner-infield bat rather than a fluky breakout. FantasyPros 2026 projections continue to view Paredes as a high-floor option with 25-homer upside, making him a steady fantasy contributor even if he no longer carries surprise-star appeal.

2B,3B,DH - NYM
Jorge Polanco rebounded in 2025, posting a .265/.326/.495 line with 26 home runs and a 134 OPS+ across 138 games for Seattle. The underlying metrics support the bounce-back: his 89.9 mph average exit velocity and 45.8% hard-hit rate were both career-best marks, while his strikeout rate dropped to 15.6% after spiking to 29.2% in 2024. The result was a .348 rOBA and 134 Rbat+, well above league average and a clear return to middle-of-the-order production. Looking ahead to 2026, projections that peg him closer to the low-.250s with 20-23 homers suggest some pullback from last year's career-high ISO (.229) and HR rate (5.0%). That's reasonable given his age and prior volatility, but the improved contact quality and stabilized plate discipline from 2025 give him a higher floor than most mid-tier second basemen. Durability remains the primary variable, yet if he approaches 140 games again, Polanco profiles as a strong MI option with 20-plus homer power and counting stats buoyed by everyday run production.

Xander Bogaerts
SS - SD
Bogaerts showed modest rebound signs in 2025, posting a .263/.328/.391 line with 20 steals across 136 games after an injury-marred 2024 campaign. His underlying metrics were closer to league average (94 Rbat+, .320 rOBA), but a jump to a 39.5% hard-hit rate and a career-best 26.8% line-drive rate suggest there's still quality contact in the profile. While his power remains well below his Boston peak, the speed has held — 33 steals over the last two seasons with a 90.9% success rate in 2025 — giving him a stable roto floor. With 2026 projections forecasting a similar batting average with mid-teens homers and another 15-20 SB season, Bogaerts profiles as a steady middle-infield contributor whose five-category contributions are more valuable than his recent OPS totals indicate.

Mark Vientos

Mark Vientos failed to build on his 2024 breakout, with his 2025 season showing notable pullbacks in rOBA (.361 to .310), ISO (.249 to .179), and HR rate despite similar playing time. The plate skills did improve slightly (career-best strikeout rate to 24.8%), but the quality-of-contact gains from 2024 didn't hold, leaving him closer to league average overall production. The 2026 projections still lean on his raw power and everyday role potential, but expect more of a low-OBP, mid-20s HR corner bat rather than a true middle-of-the-order force. In fantasy, Vientos profiles best as a CI option in deeper leagues where power is scarce, with limited upside unless the 2024 batted-ball profile returns.

Konnor Griffin entered 2025 as one of the most highly regarded prospects in the lower minors and exceeded expectations after being widely considered the top prep position player in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound infielder combines elite speed and athleticism with impact power, slashing .333/.415/.527 with 21 home runs, 65 steals, and a 21.7% strikeout rate across Single-A, High-A, and Double-A as a 19-year-old. His wRC+ improved at each level, finishing 75% above the Double-A average despite being the second-youngest hitter with 80 plate appearances, behind only Leo De Vries. Once questioned for his hit tool, Griffin now appears on track for a 2026 MLB debut, and a potential extension could accelerate his timeline. He offers defensive versatility but has primarily played shortstop.

Marcell Ozuna
DH - PIT
Marcell Ozuna's 2025 campaign marked a steep regression from his elite 2023-2024 peak, as his slash line fell to .232/.355/.400 with 21 home runs across 592 plate appearances. While his 15.9% walk rate buoyed his OBP, his power indicators slipped considerably — including a drop to a .168 ISO, 3.5% HR rate, and a career-low 89.9 mph average exit velocity. After posting rOBA marks of .384 and .394 the previous two seasons, he dipped to .342 (118 Rbat+), signaling a clear step back from middle-of-the-order dominance. Now eligible only at DH with the Pirates, Ozuna's lack of positional flexibility further caps his fantasy utility. He profiles as a fantasy faller, with 2026 projections pointing toward solid but no-longer-elite power production more in line with a mid-tier corner bat than a foundational fantasy piece.

Nolan Schanuel
1B - LAA
Nolan Schanuel quietly took a step forward in 2025, trimming his strikeout rate to 12.6% (down from 17.0% in 2024) while posting a career-best 108 Rbat+ and .329 rOBA. His average exit velocity jumped to 87.0 mph and his hard-hit rate climbed to 29.0%, supporting modest gains in ISO (.125) despite still well-below-average raw power. While his 2026 projections suggest more of a high-average, mid-teens home run profile than a true breakout, the improved contact quality and elite bat-to-ball skills give him a stable floor in OBP formats. Schanuel profiles as a deep-league corner infield sleeper, with value tied more to batting average and run production than impact power.

Colt Keith
1B,2B,3B,DH - DET
Colt Keith took a meaningful step forward in 2025, improving his rOBA from .308 to .326 and his Rbat+ from 95 to 107 while boosting his walk rate from 6.5% to 10.3%. The power growth was supported by real skill gains, as his ISO jumped from .120 to .157 with a spike in hard-hit rate (35.3% to 43.7%) and average exit velocity (87.8 mph to 90.0 mph), even as his strikeout rate ticked up slightly. His more balanced batted-ball profile (lower GB%, higher FB%) suggests the 2025 power gains are sustainable rather than fluky. With 2026 projections building on that improved plate discipline and batted-ball authority, Keith profiles as a fantasy riser, especially in OBP formats. While he's unlikely to contribute much in steals, a potential jump into the 18-22 HR range with solid run production at second base gives him stable middle-infield value with room for another step forward entering his age-24 season.
