Dynasty: too close to call. Redraft: Chase DeLauter. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has them nearly level, Anthony #53 and DeLauter #55, and the expert consensus agrees (#76 and #40). The community leans Anthony, FRV 72.9 to 60.3. For 2026 redraft, the consensus has DeLauter ahead, #96 to #296.
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 Roman Anthony (Jun 29, 2026): Not to be a gray cloud that rains on everyone's parade, but I think this is a lost season for Roman Anthony, and I'm worried about what this means for his future development. The Red Sox honestly feel like a ship without a sail right now and I think some of that young talent that exists in that organization might get wasted while they try to figure things out. Roman Anthony might be a good enough talent to overcome this chaos but I have to handicap the odds that he flounders in this environment by moving him down in the rankings. It's a shame that team dynamics can have a large effect on a player's career outcome and they can't just realize their potential upside in a vacuum.
