Dynasty: Rainiel Rodriguez. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Rodriguez ahead, Rodriguez #77 and Paula #101, but the expert consensus has Paula ahead (#76 to #144). The community disagrees, leaning Paula, FRV 66.0 to 54.3.
JD on Josue De Paula (Jul 10, 2026): De Paula is flying up everyone's prospect rankings pages across the board and I would feel silly if I didn't also get on the hype train. I will be very curious to see if he really leans into his power potential or if he never really blossoms and is a high-ish average doubles guy. To me that is what's going to separate him from being a top 100-ish asset to a top 30 asset. My main issue with De Paula is that he's blocking a bunch of other Dodgers outfield prospects (Hope, Tibbs) and there's not enough playing time to go around for all these young exciting guys. I guess it's true that the rich get richer huh?
JD on Rainiel Rodriguez (Sep 17, 2026): Rainiel may have put up one of the best full season stat lines for a teenager in AA this year - .328/.408/.591 - and I still don't think he is getting enough credit for hit. He potentially the best hit tools in the minors, and I think he has a real chance to be a contributor at the big league level as a 20 year old in 2027. I would buy him wherever you can, and there is only a handful of rookie eligible guys I wouldn't trade straight up for him. (Made, Leo, Jenkins)
