Dynasty: too close to call. Redraft: Chase DeLauter. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has them nearly level, DeLauter #50 and Tucker #51, but the expert consensus has Tucker ahead (#71 to #85). The community leans Tucker, FRV 75.4 to 57.8. For 2026 redraft, the consensus has DeLauter ahead, #102 to #139, but the rest-of-season engine has Tucker ahead ($17 to $7).
JD on Chase DeLauter (Sep 11, 2026): The only the thing standing in the way of this ranking being not aggressive enough for Chase DeLauter is his injury concerns. Just in the last month alone he has had a hamstring issue and a wrist issue pop up that caused him to miss multiple games (but not go on the IL). Both seem like anomalies but this was the concern with him coming up through the minors as he never had a full season due to various injuries. DeLauter is one of the handful of guys that I think realistically can hit 300 in a given year in a very sustainable way while not sacrificing his power potential. A full season for him looks like a .300 / 25HR / 15 SB in a premium lineup position, which is easily a top 25 player. I imagine I will be even higher on him heading into 2027 when I do my offseason deep dive. Buy wherever you can.
JD on Kyle Tucker (Aug 11, 2026): Kyle Tucker is about to be on the wrong side of 30, and nothing about his profile screams to me that he's been getting unlucky in any way. He also kind of seems unmotivated but he's always had that demeanor about him. He strikes me as a guy who could just get his money and start to phone it in rather than really be motivated to live up to his contract. I think if you're a dynasty owner I'd be looking to sell him to someone who thinks that they're going to be able to reap the benefits of a slow start to his Dodgers tenure. I'm not a believer and I don't think a prolonged hot spell is coming any time soon.
