Dynasty: Ryan Sloan. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Sloan ahead, Sloan #161 and Flora #164, and the expert consensus agrees (#270 and #113). The community agrees too, FRV 55.7 to 51.5.
JD on Jackson Flora (Jul 14, 2026): The Giants took Jackson Flora 4th overall, a straight value pick that lines up with where every major board had the best arm in this draft class rated. His fastball touches 100 and his changeup already grades as a 70 for scouts. Command is the swing skill to track, but the strikeout equity and ratio upside make him a top-two 2026 FYPD selection regardless of role. He slots in number three immediately for me, just behind Seth Hernandez and Kate Anderson.
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.
