Dynasty: too close to call. Redraft: Dylan Cease. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has them nearly level, Cease #44 and Rasmussen #46, and the expert consensus agrees (#93 and #32). The community leans Cease, FRV 66.8 to 57.3. For 2026 redraft, the consensus has Cease ahead, #35 to #55.
JD on Drew Rasmussen (Jun 11, 2026): What a start by Rasmussen against the Red Sox, 13ks over 7 innings with less than 100 pitches. I feel like it's a true sign of a player's talent when you see them with huge K numbers with a relatively low pitch count. The pitch count issue is the thing that's holding me back with Rasmussen right now. It feels like the Rays don't want to let him off of the leash (for better or worse) and that is what's keeping him from putting up top-tier caliber pitching numbers. Also, he is already almost 31 years old so I don't know how long the good times roll. For now, I would treat him like Brandon Woodruff circa 2017 through 2019 without the innings and counting stats upside.
