Players 51 to 75

#51 Roman Anthony OF BOS 22.5

I still believe in Roman Anthony long term, but I'm bracing for some bumps and bruises along the way.

2026 was basically a lost season. He tore a ligament at the base of his right ring finger on May 4 and didn't make it back until August 30, so he only got 242 plate appearances. Even so, the Statcast profile mostly held up. His average EV took a step back, from 94.5 mph in 2025 to 92.0 mph, and his hard-hit rate fell from 60.3% to 46.6%. Some of that is probably the hand. But 92 is still a number most hitters would kill for, and he paired it with an 11.7% barrel rate, a 12% walk rate and a 23.7% chase rate. His .341 xwOBA says he was better than his .735 OPS. Everything in the profile says he should be good.

What worries me is that the hand isn't done with him yet. He re-aggravated it in Game 1 of the Wild Card series (against Schlittler, of all people), and the imaging found new strains in the wrist on top of the old ligament. The Red Sox say he won't need surgery and that rest is the plan, which is great. But hand and wrist injuries have a way of lingering, and they tend to sap power even after a guy is back on the field. If the rest eats into his normal offseason prep, I wouldn't be shocked to see him come out of the gates ice cold in 2027.

So here's my plan: if the Anthony manager in your league starts panicking after a slow April, that's your buy window. He'll only be 23 next year, with an elite eye and plenty of thump. I'm happy to take the discount and let him work out the kinks on my roster. Just don't expect a smooth ride out of the gate.

#52 Drew Rasmussen SP TB 31.3

Rasmussen feels like a 26-year-old inside of a 31-year-old body just because of how little we have seen of him as he has been rebuilt with a bionic arm across 3 surgeries.

I actually think Rasmussen might be one of the most attractive starters in redraft leagues next year. You get a pitcher on an elite team with a ton of win potential, outstanding ratios, and enough Ks to get the job done. The WHIP really does the heavy lifting for me as I find pitchers who can consistently maintain a sub-1.0 WHIP to be some of the most talented in all of baseball.

However when it comes to dynasty, he is a bit of an unknown quantity. The track record for durability of pitchers who have had three surgeries like this is not great, and the Rays might play it cautious at any sign of an issue (by limiting his innings or easing him into the postseason next year, right when fantasy players need him most). Because he has less mileage than most elite arms at his age, I think he might actually be underrated from a dynasty perspective but you have to trust that the injury history won't rear its head. I lean more toward the former than the latter but I wouldn't blame you for staying away in dynasty formats just because of the injury issues.

#53 Chase DeLauter OF CLE 25.1

I've been bought in on Chase DeLauter since he was in the minors, so it would be silly of me to jump off now.

He's a rare hitter nowadays. He doesn't sell out for max bat speed or max power, instead keeping the swing short, making high-quality contact, and hitting the ball just hard enough for it to leave the yard. His 2026 data largely back it up: a 14.7% K rate, a 15.0% whiff rate and a 21.1% chase rate, with a 91.4 mph average EV and a 46.3% hard-hit rate. He's not a barrel monster (6.3%), but that's not the point. He rarely gets overwhelmed at the plate, and I feel like he can hold up against anyone. His swing almost reminds me of Chase Utley's, just in a bigger, stronger frame.

The result was a .287/.363/.457 line with 16 HR, 11 SB, and a .277 xBA with a 131 wRC+ in his first full season.

The ceiling isn't as high as some of the guys around him, and that's the trade-off with this approach. The thing you really have to watch out for with him is health and durability. He broke his foot in college, then lost chunks of his minor league career to foot fractures, turf toe, a sports hernia and a broken hamate, which is a big part of why he got overlooked as a prospect. This year he fractured a rib in June, and a hamstring issue and a wrist issue cost him games in September. Luckily, none of it seemed to affect him too much.

Outside of the injury concerns, I think he has one of the higher floors in fantasy. Give him a full, healthy 2027 and he's easily a top 50 player for the next couple of years. The consensus still has him around 80, so this is your chance to buy before everyone else catches on.

#54 Bryce Eldridge 1B SF 22.0

If Bryce Eldridge wasn't in the absolute worst spot for left-handed power hitters in San Francisco, I think he would have made my top 50 dynasty players. It's just a real shame that someone with his power potential and strong rookie season is subject to that run environment. Imagine Bryce Eldridge in Colorado or Sacramento? At that point there's no reason to think he wouldn't be a top 25 player for 2027 with his power.

Since we have to play the hand that we were dealt, let's look under the hood and see how he profiles despite the poor home ballpark. His 96th percentile average exit velocity at 92.7 mph is very impressive, and when you hit the ball that hard sometimes it doesn't matter what your home ballpark is.

He also managed to keep his strikeouts in check after that was touted as his biggest red flag, striking out at a suboptimal but far from alarming 26.6% strikeout rate while pairing it with a strong 13.2% walk rate. His power also didn't show up how you would have expected it to, with only 17 home runs across 448 plate appearances despite a .361 wOBA and a 13.7-degree average launch angle.

If he is able to keep his strikeouts in check, he will be an elite player for a long time to come. I have to be honest though, when a guy has a history of strikeout issues in the minors they don't just go away overnight, so it might rear its head again next year. If it happens, I'll have to see if I'm still bought in or if there are other things that worry me about his profile.

#55 Randy Arozarena OF SEA 31.7

Did Randy Arozarena just put in a career year? Look at his stats since 2021 (excluding 2020 for small sample size bias).

![](/api/images/31634702-fcdd-4a3a-ae15-028cd22ede9a)

Two things strike me here. One is that he is remarkably consistent, with six straight 20/20 seasons since 2021. He barely scrapes by every year too, which makes me think he's actually trying to hit those 20/20 seasons intentionally and he always knows exactly where he stands with his stats.

The second is that it feels like 2026 might be a blip rather than a trend, and he'll return to the .750- to .800-OPS player that he was historically. If he's still trying to optimize for those 20/20 seasons, he's still going to be very valuable, but I don't think I would buy into a career year thinking he is a more valuable dynasty asset than he actually is. However, this level of consistency and reliability makes him a player that is just outside of the top 50 in terms of value.

I wouldn't expect him to exceed his 2026 numbers, but I think you can safely rely on him for the next couple of years as he seems to be aging more gracefully than most entering his age 32 season.

#56 Eli Willits SS WAS 18.9

I was down on Eli Willits for so long and was probably too late to adjust to the performance he was putting up in the minors this year. After seeing what he did in 2026, I think the Nationals have a budding star on their hands.

Willits hadn't even had his 18th birthday yet when the Nationals took him first overall in 2025 and handed him $8.2 million. However, the slot value for this pick was $11 million, meaning he took a nearly $3 million haircut. I think that poisoned my mind into thinking he was a budget pick that didn't necessarily have the ceiling of other guys in his draft like Ethan Holliday, Kade Anderson, or Seth Hernandez.

Rather than looking like Tim Beckham 2.0, Willits has more or less exploded onto the scene, hitting for much more power than I originally expected and being a lot more physical than he was projected to be coming into the draft.

Even discounting the 62 stolen bases in 2026, as minor league stolen bases don't tell me anything about a prospect other than how aggressive they are in the minors, he still ran a 17.7% walk rate with only a 21% K rate and slugged 14 home runs as an 18-year-old across three levels.

He has an outside chance of hitting the big league roster in 2027, but more than likely will need another year of development, where we should see his power continue to blossom with him knocking down the door of the big leagues in 2028 as one of the most hyped prospects in the minors.

#57 Drake Baldwin C ATL 25.6

Drake Baldwin as a non-catcher is easily in the top 50 dynasty assets for me. He also is probably a top 50 asset if you're in a two-catcher league or in a deeper league where the fall-off is much steeper from the best starting catcher in the league to the worst starting catcher in the league. However, I have an implicit bias against catchers in dynasty leagues like this because of their shorter shelf lives and all of my rankings of catchers are going to reflect that.

Baldwin mashes the ball and probably will get as much playing time as you can get from a catcher. I love the step forward he took in his sophomore year across pretty much all of his key metrics. The batting average might be a bit high as he ran an unsustainable .332 BABIP for 2026 and I would expect a batting average closer to the .250 to .260 range. However, he has about as safe a profile as you can get from a catcher and I think he will only improve over the next couple of years.

If you have him, hold on tight, I think you have the pretty clear No. 1 catcher for the next couple of years.

#58 Otto Lopez SS MIA 28.1

I said this earlier in the season and I still feel it: if Otto Lopez played for the Yankees, everyone would look at him a lot differently.

Look at what he just did. He hit .305/.349/.437 with 34 stolen bases, 94 runs and 71 RBI across 687 plate appearances, good for a 115 wRC+ and nearly 6 fWAR. The average isn't a fluke either: he struck out only 13% of the time, and his .281 xBA says the contact quality supports a high average year after year. Add 28.5 ft/s sprint speed and the Marlins playing him every single day, and you have a guy who piles up at-bats and steals.

What he doesn't have is power. He hit 11 home runs with a 6% barrel rate and an 89.1 mph average EV, and I don't think the power gets much better from here. He also has the unlucky mix of playing in Miami, where nobody pays attention, with a bad team around him that won't create as many run and RBI chances as he'd get on a good one. Maybe he gets moved at the deadline next year and lands somewhere that makes him more attractive.

I'm well ahead of the consensus here (they have him around 100), and I'm comfortable with it. A high-average, 30-steal shortstop who never comes off the field should be one of those quietly elite players for the next couple of years. If his manager in your league sees "Marlins" and shrugs, take advantage.

#59 Alec Burleson 1B STL 27.9

There's nothing flashy about Alec Burleson, but the season he put up in 2026 should have caught everyone's eyes.

He had 26 home runs and 116(!) RBIs all while hitting .279 with all of the Statcast metrics to back up this breakout season. Even if you go back to look at 2025, the signs were there that this breakout was possible as he had all of the same underlying potential without some of the outlier counting stats.

I think Burleson is one of the safest guys you can target in the top 100, and I think he'll continue to put up steady if unspectacular value over the course of the 2027 season. There's definitely a place for stat accumulators in fantasy baseball. Burleson is the textbook version of someone who doesn't stand out on a day-to-day basis but when you look back at his performance at the end of the season and love the contribution he gave your team.

#60 Rainiel Rodriguez C/1B STL 19.8

Rainiel is one of the most exciting prospects in the minor leagues, and potentially has the best pure bat of any prospect today. I don't think there's any chance, long term, he ends up behind the plate as he will probably get moved to first base in the big leagues, so I'm not dinging him with the same catcher discount I might for another prospect.

He put up an OPS of nearly 1.000 across 500+ plate appearances in 2026, slugging 27 home runs and adding 11 stolen bases for good measure, with a very reasonable 19% K rate. Hitting over .300 at any level is impressive, but when you can do it while hitting 27 HRs it gets me a whole new level of excited.

The only risk here is the body: it seems he loves his fair share of plantains, chicken, and rice. We've seen how this affected a guy like Vlad Jr. and the volatility that comes with the extra weight, but I'm not willing to ding him too much for something that's only potentially a concern down the line. If it weren't for that risk, he might be closer to my number 1 prospect, but I still love him and think he will have a long successful career as a bat-first 1B at the big league level.

#61 Leodalis De Vries SS ATH 20.1

Here is what I said when news first broke about De Vries' shoulder surgery:

"Really brutal news for Leo that he will be out for 8 months with shoulder surgery. Luckily it's during the offseason and he's so young and it's not crucial that he gets a ton of reps right now. It would be nice to see him knocking on the door of the big leagues next year with a really strong spring and start to the 2027 season.

I imagine this takes any hope of a 2027 debut as a 20-year-old out of the picture but still leaves the chance that he makes his 2028 debut as a 21-year-old in play. I like what Sebastian Walcott has been able to do coming back from injury so I'm hopeful that Leo will take the time to develop, get stronger, and come out of this better off in the long run. Not selling if I own him here."

Nothing has really changed since then, except me diving into some of the other prospects that I think are more exciting from a fantasy perspective. With no injury he's still probably top three for me, but for now I think he's a very strong number seven overall prospect and can earn back his top three status if he proves he's fully healthy during the 2027 season.

#62 Kyle Schwarber DH PHI 33.7

Kyle Schwarber is at 385 career home runs. I think it's a foregone conclusion he gets to 500, but is there any chance he gets to 600? He'll be playing in 2027 in his age 34 season, meaning he would have to hit 215 home runs in his next six seasons to get there before the age of 40 (which equals about 35-ish home runs per year). If you assumed he could continue playing into his age-41 season, that would give him 8 seasons, which only requires him to hit about 27 home runs per year to get to 600.

Maybe it's a stretch to assume he'll be able to get there, but regardless he will go down as one of the best power hitters of our generation. It's been a joy watching him as a Phillies fan mash balls at Citizens Bank Park over the last five years. I think he still has 2 or 3 more years of elite performance before he becomes a liability in everything except the power department, but he should continue to put up absurd value in the first couple years of his 7-year window.

Schwarber is the perfect win-now piece and if you're not in position to win now, I would sell him for a prospect haul or a couple of young pieces while the market is still high on him.

#63 Jesus Luzardo SP PHI 29.1

It's unbelievable to me that the Phillies had Cristopher Sanchez, Zack Wheeler, and Jesus Luzardo dominating in their starting rotation this year and effectively rolled over without a whimper in the playoffs.

Luzardo took his turn as the most dominant of the three after the All-Star break, putting up a 1.82 ERA with a 0.84 WHIP and 85 Ks across 69 1/3 innings. It's just a shame that he missed pretty much all of the fantasy playoffs as he made his last start of the year on September 7. He then went down with a shoulder injury for a couple of weeks before returning for one inning on September 27.

Heading into 2027 the only thing separating Luzardo from being a top-10 starting pitcher in my eyes is his ability to avoid the occasional ugly blowup. All starting pitchers blow up from time to time, but Luzardo has a habit of absolutely cratering when things are not going his way. If he can limit the insane damage his blowups cause and make it manageable on a week-to-week basis, he will be a top 10 starter in 2027.

I'll leave you with this fun fact about his 2026 season: he had six starts where he gave up 5 or more earned runs and he also had 17 starts where he gave up 0 or 1 earned run. Do you know in how many starts he gave up exactly 3 earned runs? That's right!

![](/api/images/33c2b7cc-d8e5-4149-8e86-41f8a5980e7f)

#64 Bryan Woo SP SEA 26.8

Bryan Woo is somewhat of an enigma for me, as he has elite Stuff+ and Location+ metrics, an elite fastball without elite underlying metrics (I would call them above average) but nothing else that really separates him with his repertoire.

![](/api/images/632b210e-d75a-4826-bff2-1c6e115cc7db)

The only pitches that have been elite for him in his career before 2026 have been his fastball and sinker and even his sinker took a step back this year, being only +2 runs of value for 2026. Maybe the changeup that he found this year will become his #2 pitch and continue to outperform the rest of his arsenal, but I think its effectiveness comes from the infrequency and not necessarily because it is an outlier in stuff. His strong command will keep him in the "very good" tier, I don't really think there's much more upside from where he is now.

He effectively shares a ranking with Eury Perez, and the two could not be more different in terms of their dispersion of outcomes over the next couple of years. Woo is probably the ultimate safe #2, so if that fits well in your team he is a great target. If you are looking for someone with more upside but are willing to risk the downside, you should be looking at someone like Eury.

#65 Eury Perez SP MIA 23.6

I don't love rostering pitchers who run super hot and super cold over the course of the season. The Mr. Bones' Wild Ride effect is on full display with Eury as he will look unhittable across 7 perfect innings then put up 3 straight clunkers a month later.

If you're in a roto dynasty league, you can take the good with the bad but it is so painful in head-to-head matchups when you have someone like Eury swinging your ratios wildly from one week to the next.

He's still so young and has so much time to improve, and he has an elite fastball among elite fastballs so the ceiling is incredibly high. I just think I tend to play more conservatively with my pitching and don't chase the Eury Perez types.

I'd love to know any thoughts anyone has on Eury and what you expect heading into the 2027 season.

#66 Hunter Goodman C COL 27.1

I'm probably one of the biggest Hunter Goodman haters, but I'm not ranking these players in a vacuum and still have to take into account their situation and environment. Coors Field is clearly incredible for his production, and a batting average that would potentially dip into the low .200s is still a serviceable .245 due to how many balls will drop playing in Coors that wouldn't drop anywhere else.

Additionally he doesn't really have the skill set that a guy like Shea Langeliers has (still benefits from a great park environment but hits the ball a lot harder and strikes out a bit less than Goodman). All that being said, you can't separate the ballpark from the player and Goodman should be in a prime position to challenge the league leaders in home runs over the next couple of seasons while still being serviceable in all the other 5x5 categories. Hopefully his 30% K rate doesn't creep any higher, as it's already 4% higher than it was in 2025, and if that trend continues he could get into trouble quickly.

#67 Theo Gillen OF TB 21.2

Oh, do the Rays have another top prospect to salivate over?

![](/api/images/ed65867f-d8f9-4db4-be4c-1c9140e0ef39)

I can't help but think that Theo Gillen should have been getting at-bats in the playoffs for the Rays. The combination of DeLuca, Vilade, Williamson, and Walls feeling like automatic outs at the end of their lineup was ridiculous.

Theo Gillen really took another step forward this year, hitting 22 home runs after hitting only 5 across his first two minor league seasons. That was really the one piece missing and the piece that I wasn't sure would ever develop when he was first touted as a top prospect. When you pair that with a .968 OPS and a double-digit walk rate, he looks like he will be a mainstay in the big leagues for years to come.

I feel like Carson Benge is a pretty good comp to Gillen. I think if he gets a full season of at-bats next year, he could put together a similar standout rookie campaign. That would catapult him into (or close to) the top 25 dynasty rankings at the end of 2027 heading into 2028.

#68 Bryce Harper 1B/OF PHI 34.1

My previous take on Harper still stands, as he is one of the most consistent performers in baseball and continues to be:

"I have a hot take, I think Bryce Harper is criminally underrated. He had all the expectations in the world levied on him as a sixteen-year-old in a sport where star players cannot make the same impact as they can in a sport like basketball.

LeBron James lived up to the expectations because he was able to single-handedly carry his teams and win championships. Baseball is not a sport where you can be dependent on a single player's performance so long-term exceptional performance can be overlooked if it doesn't result in accolades every year.

All this is to say that Bryce Harper has had an incredible career and really shows no signs of slowing down into his mid-30s. He still has a > .400 xwOBA and a wRC+ of 144. I have him at 60 (68 now) here just because of how old he is but he is a pretty good player to have for the next three to five years because I don't see performance dropping off too much."

This is a player who has not finished outside of the Top 100 IN HIS CAREER.

![](/api/images/980d9ed1-32b1-4a18-bcbd-906cd8b834ae)

#69 Logan Henderson SP MIL 24.7

Posting this recap of what I said before the playoffs about Henderson as it still rings true.

"I recently took a really hard look at what Logan Henderson had to offer, and was surprised to see that I have been sleeping on him way too hard.

I don't want to be dramatic here but the comp I have for Henderson is....Greg Maddux (I can hear your eyes rolling through the screen, but hear me out).

Henderson is relatively undersized at 6'0" (5'11" without shoes) and features an average fastball velocity of 93 mph (28th percentile) with an average spin rate. Nothing about his profile screams 30% K rate, and if you watched him in the bullpen you would think he was a Quad-A swingman.

Instead, Henderson is rocking a 30% K-rate, 1.5 BB/9, and a microscopic 0.78 WHIP across 93 1/3 innings this year and has some of the loudest peripherals of any starter in baseball. He gets a ton of armside run on both his fastball and changeup and hasn't needed much of a third pitch yet, mixing a cutter in only 16% of the time and a sweeper 3% of the time, so the fact that he has performed this well on the back of a FB/CH dominated mix is a strong sign that there is room for him to grow.

Henderson also has the type of profile that I love to bet on in dynasty leagues. Since he doesn't rely on a triple digit fastball or a sharp breaking ball, my eye test tells me he will be one of the most durable, reliable top tier starters for the next several years. He is a major buy in all formats for me, and if your league structure rewards accumulating pitching stats or innings, Henderson should be one of your top targets."

His poor playoff performance doesn't dissuade me from buying him in dynasty leagues as I think that was a function of the Brewers' strategy rather than his pitching ability. I am still buying in all formats.

#70 Matt Olson 1B ATL 32.6

Olson is similar to Schwarber and Harper, as you know what you are going to get at this point of their careers and you can rely on the hot streaks to follow the cold spells.

To Matt Olson's credit, he has done a good job of staving off any decline in his underlying metrics, actually increasing his bat speed by 0.9 mph this year and continuing to barrel balls at a 14% clip. The only confusing part of his game is that he contributed -1 run against four-seam fastballs while putting a positive run value on every other type of pitch (CB was -3 at 7.7% of pitches seen, but don't let the truth get in the way of a good narrative). He also saw them only 30.4% of the time, easily a career low for him. I wonder if he's taking an approach to focus only on non-fastballs and daring pitchers to beat him with a pitch that he has historically crushed in every other year. As pitchers are throwing fewer and fewer fastballs, I am surprised more hitters don't adopt a similar approach where they hunt the breaking ball and try to take advantage of the lack of fastballs in today's game.

Back to Olson, he's as steady as they come. At 33 years old, he profiles as one of those graceful decliners and should be valuable for years to come.

#71 Shea Langeliers C ATH 29.0

I think people may be forgetting that Shea Langeliers has been one of the most dangerous hitters in the league over the last two seasons. Despite relatively pedestrian statistics entering his 2025 season, he has really taken another step forward by taking full advantage of Sutter Health Park and absolutely crushing lefties. Here is his 2026 grid:

![](/api/images/77b4020b-9d54-4185-bd74-00d690546083)

and his 2025 grid:

![](/api/images/1ded21fd-a10f-4005-9dcb-20e9113f593f)

Maybe he is just a function of the Sutter Health Park lift, but he should enjoy a 2027 with a lot of tailwinds that will make it hard to finish outside of the top 3 catchers if health permits.

I'm hoping the A's get him off his feet as much as possible in 2027 and DH him, although that may be tough with Brent Rooker coming back and slotted in as the regular DH. All told, I would expect him to be close to the top catcher options in 2027 and 2028, and a potential transition after that where he still retains catcher eligibility but doesn't take as much of a beating behind the dish and still retains the value he brings with the bat.

#72 Parker Messick SP CLE 26.0

My favorite old-school dumpy-body starting pitcher just sneaked into the top 75 for me. I love his old-school and new-school mix, where he has a below-average fastball and below-average stuff that he pairs with above-average location to get a K/9 over 9 while still limiting his walks. (Sidenote: this is the exact strategy I think Jake Bennett should use to become an elite starting pitcher, but I digress.)

I'm a tad concerned about where he goes from here, because his profile doesn't necessarily scream significant improvement compared to this year. However, even if 2026 is the high watermark, he can still float around there and return a lot of value without needing to improve from here. One odd quirk about Messick is he has a slight reverse split tendency, with a .676 OPS allowed versus lefties versus .629 OPS allowed against righties in his career. How fun was that fact?!

#73 Mason Miller RP SD 28.2

I have nothing really to add to my initial commentary when I released these rankings back in May:

"I wish we could see an alternate reality where Mason Miller was used as a starter rather than a high-leverage reliever.

His fastball may take two steps back but I think he would have the potential to be a top 10 starting pitcher in the game and relatively durable because of how consistent he has been since he's gotten to the big leagues with his health.

In terms of his dynasty league value, it's going to be so context-dependent but I tend to favor having incredibly strong relievers on my roster as set-it-and-forget-it because of their benefit to ratios and knowing that position is handled."

Just to reemphasize, your league is going to be different than other leagues, and pitchers might be incredibly valuable or effectively useless depending on your league format. Closers are probably the hardest to rank of anyone so take all reliever rankings with a grain of salt.

All that being said, Mason Miller is head and shoulders above all other closers (except maybe Cade Smith). If you're lucky enough to have him over the course of a season, you can see his effect across your ratios in a way that no other reliever can.

#74 Jose Ramirez 3B CLE 34.1

I think we may be finally witnessing the decline of one of the most steady and reliable contributors in dynasty fantasy leagues for the last 9 years. Excluding a down 2019, he has returned at least $24 of value every year while being a top 10 player 6 times. He honestly went on a generational run and I believe he has a decent shot at a Hall of Fame nomination when he eventually wraps it up.

However this is a dynasty ranking list and we need to make sure we are honest with what we should expect from him going forward. While never being a Statcast darling, he did take some significant steps back in all of his major underlying metrics, with my biggest concerns being his 3-year steady decline of average exit velocity and bat speed. At this age, these things don't turn themselves around, so it's going to be more about managing the decline rather than trying to reverse the trajectory.

He still managed to steal 37 bags this year and I think he is an above-average base stealer that should continue to run into his mid-to-late 30s, and if he can get to 20 home runs he's going to be pretty valuable for the next 3 to 4 years (regardless of how the underlying stats deteriorate). Just don't be surprised if the .235 batting average is more the norm rather than the batting average that hovers in the .280s, and if the power doesn't come back he's going to be a two- or three-category contributor going forward rather than the 5-category stud he has been for so long.

#75 Carter Jensen C KC 23.3

I flirted with so many people to round out the top 75. I wanted to go with Walker Jenkins. Another part of me wanted to please the crowd and put Wyatt Langford here. At the end of the day, I settled on Carter Jensen for an admittedly simple reason: he ended the season scorching lava hot.

With an OPS of nearly 1.200 and 8 home runs in 80 at-bats, he was a league winner if you were lucky enough to have him on your playoff roster. It led to a very respectable .790 OPS for the 2026 season, with underlying metrics that support a better line than he actually had. If you could take the midpoint of Carter Jensen's fly ball tendency with Jac Caglianone's line drive tendency, you might have the best power hitter in baseball and a perennial MVP candidate. Alas, we are stuck with an xBA of .217 in 2026 for Jensen and a 7.7-degree launch angle for Jac.

I'm looking for Jensen to build on his red-hot September in 2027 and flirt with a batting average closer to .260 rather than dropping further from his .239 BA in 2026. If he can string together those improvements and get his feet under him earlier in the season, I think he's going to surprise a lot of people next year.

Also, a lineup with Bobby Witt Jr. and Jac Caglianone supporting Jensen makes the Royals a sneaky threat next year. Not only will it help the counting stats of all three, it might make KC surprise contenders next year.
