Dynasty: too close to call. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has them nearly level, Langeliers #49 and DeLauter #50, and the expert consensus agrees (#85 and #63). The community leans Langeliers, FRV 66.5 to 57.8.
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 Shea Langeliers (May 27, 2026): I think I am most impressed by Shea Langeliers expected batting average of .292. I always expected him to be a high-power, low-average guy but when he's able to also hit at a close to a .300 level, he becomes so much more valuable to me. Ben Rice is still my number one overall catcher but may not have eligibility next year. I think Langeliers is easily Cq over Cal Raleigh, because I think we saw a 99.9 percentile outcome from him. I wouldn't expect anything close to his peak for the rest of his career, while Langeliers production feels sustainable (at least while they are in Sacramento).
