Dynasty: Ryan Sloan. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Sloan ahead, Sloan #161 and Kirby #173, and the expert consensus agrees (#153 and #112). The community disagrees, leaning Kirby, FRV 71.1 to 55.7.
JD on George Kirby (Jun 17, 2026): I am underwhelmed by his K rate right now but I feel like it is an anomaly rather than a trend that we should be worried about. He has such good command (LOC+ 113) and is so around the zone that I like his ability to age very gracefully even if the stuff takes a step back. He may not have the stuff of some of the guys around him but I will take the reliability in a low end #1 / high end #2.
JD on Ryan Sloan (Jul 3, 2026): For Sloan, his ranking has less to do with his skill set and more to do with how I value pitching prospects in dynasty leagues. My motto is “there is no such thing as a pitching prospect”, which is an exaggerated way to say that I would rather invest my prospect capital in a hitter because pitchers are so susceptible to injuries and their value evaporating before they have a chance to hit the big league level. Sloan is the #4 non-debuted SP (behind Hernandez, Anderson, and White) on my list, I would look at them that way rather than his ranking compared to all of the hitters and debuted pitchers overall. I’m very bullish on him long-term, but from a dynasty prospect perspective, pictures are hard to rank incredibly high.
