Dynasty: Gunnar Henderson. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Henderson ahead, Henderson #49 and Vries #61, and the expert consensus agrees (#34 and #78). The community agrees too, 82.0 to 72.5.
JD on Gunnar Henderson (Oct 21, 2026): Gunner Henderson is still so young and had so much potential that it's hard for me to write him off completely. However I can't figure out what kind of player he really is. Is he going to be a guy who steals 30 bases like he did in 2025? Is he going to try to tap into more power like he seemingly did in 2026 at the expense of his batting average? Or will he be able to put it all together like he did in 2023 and 2024 and return to being a top 10-type player when everything is going right? I'm betting that his 2026 is what we should expect to see from him going forward although I think his batting average is a little suppressed due to a lower BABIP that probably has some reversion to the mean in 2027. He still has so much time to right the ship and "righting the ship" is probably not the right term for it because he didn't put together a bad season by any means in 2026. It's just not up to the standard that he set when he first came on the scene as a 22- and 23-year-old. I wouldn't blame you for still believing in Gunnar but I would prefer to look elsewhere when getting to this point of the rankings (because I don't think he is going to return to his old form that made him so valuable).
JD on Leodalis De Vries (Nov 4, 2026): Here is what I said when news first broke about De Vries' shoulder surgery: "Really brutal news for Leo that he will be out for 8 months with shoulder surgery. Luckily it's during the offseason and he's so young and it's not crucial that he gets a ton of reps right now. It would be nice to see him knocking on the door of the big leagues next year with a really strong spring and start to the 2027 season. I imagine this takes any hope of a 2027 debut as a 20-year-old out of the picture but still leaves the chance that he makes his 2028 debut as a 21-year-old in play. I like what Sebastian Walcott has been able to do coming back from injury so I'm hopeful that Leo will take the time to develop, get stronger, and come out of this better off in the long run. Not selling if I own him here." Nothing has really changed since then, except me diving into some of the other prospects that I think are more exciting from a fantasy perspective. With no injury he's still probably top three for me, but for now I think he's a very strong number seven overall prospect and can earn back his top three status if he proves he's fully healthy during the 2027 season.
