What the staff says

JD on Junior Caminero (Sep 24, 2026): I had to fight myself putting Junior Caminero first overall, but you can't put a guy who doesn't contribute in stolen bases first overall unfortunately. He is far and away my favorite bat in baseball and at only 23 years old I think he still has room for growth here. Something that doesn't necessarily concern me but that I wasn't really aware of is that his launch angle was only 9.9 for 2026. I feel like this means that there is, incredibly, actually more upside in the homerun department if he learns to lift some of these balls he's mashing into the ground or hitting for 115 mph singles. If I had to pick one player in the major leagues next year to bet on hitting 50 home runs, Junior Caminero is the easiest call out there. If he continues hitting the ball this hard, maintains a sub-20% K rate, and finds a little bit of a greater launch angle, stolen bases be damned it's going to be hard to not make him the #1 overall player in dynasty leagues when he's knocking on the door of 60 HRs.

JD on Kevin McGonigle (Jun 10, 2026): Think about a player who has 3 HRs in 237 PA but has more walks than strikeouts, a .400 on-base percentage, and is putting up a .374 xwOBA at 21 years old - how are you evaluating that player? I think I'm more bullish on McGonigle just because of how impressed I've been with his batted ball profile and maybe the home runs are going to come down the line rather than this year. I think this is one of those situations where everyone expected so much from him that there is some disappointment despite some really impressive underlying metrics. His 30-home-run years may not come for a couple of years but you're going to get some really great stats all around while waiting for the power to mature.
