JD on James Wood (Jul 23, 2026): According to our model James Wood has been the most valuable player of 2026, slightly edging out Yordan Alvarez due to his ability to steal bases. His Statcast data more than backs it up so I am confident that he will be able to continue to perform at a high level. I can see a path to him being my number #2 dynasty asset if he keeps this pace up for the full year.
JD on Oneil Cruz (Aug 18, 2026): Oneil Cruz with a CRUISE MISSILE in his first game back from the IL at 107.7 off the bat, going 422 feet. I think I am higher on Cruz than anyone in the industry, but I will continue to bang the drum that he is a special talent that few players can match from an upside perspective. He could be a league winner the rest of the year (or he could be an absolute dud) but in dynasty leagues I would be doing whatever I can to grab him for his age 28 season in 2027. BUY BUY BUY!
