2025 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Position

Team

Cole Ragans Note
	8. Cole Ragans SP Cole Ragans was a hot entity heading into the 2024 fantasy season, and he delivered on expectations. He pitched 186 1/3 innings, struck out 223 batters, and ended with a 3.14 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP. His xERA and xFIP mostly backed up these numbers, and his 29.3% K rate landed him in the 88th percentile of the league. He walked a few more batters than fantasy managers would have liked (8.8 BB%) and seemed to run out of steam near the end of the season. However, he has plenty of upside heading into 2025 and can hold down a fantasy rotation's SP1 spot. 7 weeks ago

Seth Lugo Note
	59. Seth Lugo SP Seth Lugo delivered an impressive 2024 season for the Kansas City Royals, posting a 16-9 record with a 3.00 ERA over 206.2 innings pitched, and recording 181 strikeouts against 48 walks. His performance earned him a spot on the American League All-Star team and a second-place finish in the AL Cy Young Award voting. At 35 years old, Lugo's durability and consistency were key assets for the Royals' rotation. While his 2024 performance was stellar, fantasy managers should monitor his workload and age-related factors when considering him for the 2025 season. 7 weeks ago

Carlos Estevez Note
	79. Carlos Estevez RP

Lucas Erceg Note
	86. Lucas Erceg RP Lucas Erceg landed with the Royals after a midseason trade from the A's, and he promptly took command of the ninth inning in Kansas City. In sum, the 29-year-old former infielder tossed 61 2/3 innings, striking out 72 batters, and saving 14 games. He ended the season with a 3.36 ERA and 1.05 WHIP. Erceg has a fastball that sits in the 98th percentile at 98.6 mph, leading to a 97th percentile average exit velocity at 85.9. He has the stuff to close games for the Royals in 2025 and could be a sleeper closer for those willing to bet he will enter the season in the role. A potential 30-save guy you can draft in the 10th round is a decent pick. 7 weeks ago
