2026 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Eury Perez Note

Eury Perez's 2025 surface stats (4.25 ERA) mask how dominant his underlying skills remained, as he held hitters to a .195 average with a 27.3% strikeout rate. Entering 2026, projections point to a return toward his frontline-starter upside if his workload can safely ramp up, making him a high-impact fantasy arm on a per-inning basis. Durability and innings volume remain the only things separating Perez from ace-level production, but the skills clearly support a breakout if he's allowed to go deeper into games.

Kyle Stowers Note

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. 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. 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.

Sandy Alcantara Note

Sandy Alcantara's 2025 season was a clear step back, as his ERA ballooned to 5.36 with a diminished 19.1% strikeout rate and a career-worst 45.1% hard-hit rate allowed. Projections expect some normalization, particularly in ERA and WHIP, but not a full return to his 2022 dominance. Without a rebound in strikeout rate or ground-ball lean, Alcantara profiles more as a volume-based SP3/SP4. The innings floor still carries value in deeper formats, but managers drafting him as a bounce-back ace are assuming skills growth that hasn't yet reappeared in the underlying data.

Agustin Ramirez Note

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. 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.

Jakob Marsee Note

Jakob Marsee impressed in his 2025 debut, slashing .292/.363/.478 with five homers and 14 steals across just 234 plate appearances, but the sample size was extremely limited and came with a lofty .357 BABIP that may be difficult to sustain. Projections anticipate regression at the plate, forecasting a .231 average with 13 homers but an impactful 31 steals over a larger workload. If Marsee secures everyday at-bats, his speed-driven fantasy profile makes him an intriguing sleeper in roto formats, though managers should expect batting-average volatility as pitchers adjust.

Xavier Edwards Note

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. 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. 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.
