Bobby Witt Jr., in dynasty and redraft. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Witt ahead, Witt #2 and Abrams #11, and the expert consensus agrees (#3 and #20). The community agrees too, FRV 100.3 to 73.0. For 2026 redraft, the consensus has Witt ahead, #3 to #18, but the rest-of-season engine has Abrams ahead ($62 to $47).
JD on Bobby Witt Jr. (Sep 24, 2026): If Bobby Witt Jr. was PCA's age, I think he'd be the #1 player for me. It's really that 2-year age gap (26 vs 24) that makes the 5th, 6th, and 7th years of this analysis lean in favor of PCA because he will still be in his prime while BWJ will be on his way out. It's hard to truly have a 7-year mindset when it comes to dynasty leagues, but that is the lens that I'm viewing these rankings through. I want to make sure that I start out these rankings as faithful to the rules as possible. As for BWJ's actual performance this year, he largely underwhelmed. Right? Or did he actually put together a pretty strong season all things considered? In a season, I think we'd all agree was the down season for him, he still had an OPS hovering around .800, stole 43 bases, and hit 18 home runs while only striking out 17% of the time (as of this writing on September 21st, would love to see him get to 20/40). Runs and RBIs are more of a function of the team rather than him, but he wasn't a negative in that department and was among the league leaders in runs at 87. The underlying savant metrics still back up his abilities at the plate, with a higher max EV than Junior Caminero and an average EV eclipsing mashers like J-Rod and Ben Rice. If this is what a down season looks like for BWJ, then you're establishing an incredibly high floor and should be able to rely on him for stats at least this good, with a ton of upside in 2027. He may not have as high a ceiling as PCA, but the floor is among the highest of anyone in baseball and I'm happy taking this profile with my second pick.
JD on CJ Abrams (Jul 30, 2026): I didn't expect CJ Abrams to be one of the most valuable players in baseball right now, especially after his whole casino saga at the end of last year. Everything in this profile backs up that this is a totally legitimate breakout and he should be a dominant player for a long time in this league. The only thing that confuses me is the fact that he's being floated in trade rumors right now? I'm not sure why the Nationals would trade one of the best assets in baseball (its not like he is a Boras client and isn't able to be signed to a long term deal), so I would be prioritizing locking him in with an extension rather than looking to trade him.
