2026 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Position

Team

Zach Neto Note
	33. Zach Neto SS 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. 2 weeks ago

Jose Soriano Note
	266. Jose Soriano SP Jose Soriano Soriano took a step back in 2025, posting a 4.26 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 169 innings as his walk rate spiked (10.8 BB%) and his strikeout rate settled closer to league average. The skills foundation still has appeal—his ground-ball rate climbed again (64.5%), and he continued to suppress home runs—but the rising hard-hit rate (48.6%) and neutralized batted-ball luck pushed his ratios in the wrong direction. Based on the 2026 projections, he profiles as a mid-rotation innings source rather than a true breakout candidate, with modest strikeout totals limiting his ceiling in standard leagues. Soriano is best viewed as a back-end fantasy starter whose value hinges on workload and matchup management rather than category impact. 5 days ago

Yusei Kikuchi Note
	285. Yusei Kikuchi SP Yusei Kikuchi remains a reliable but volatile fantasy arm entering 2026, best viewed as a back-end starter in mixed leagues. His 2025 season showed a step back in command (9.6% BB%) and strikeout rate (22.5% K%), eroding some of the gains he made during his strong late-2024 run, even as his workload and durability held up. The underlying batted-ball profile was mostly stable, but a rising walk rate and middling WHIP capped his fantasy ceiling despite near-league-average run prevention. Based on the 2026 projections, Kikuchi profiles as a fantasy faller—still useful for innings and strikeouts, but with limited upside and increased ratio risk compared to prior seasons. He's best deployed as a matchup-dependent SP5 rather than a set-and-forget option. 5 days ago
