Dynasty: Kade Anderson. The FanRanked staff dynasty board has Anderson ahead, Anderson #98 and Sloan #171, and the expert consensus agrees (#55 and #115). The community rates them even, FRV 55.5 and 54.4.
JD on Kade Anderson (Aug 20, 2026): Kade Anderson gets the call! He is universally considered a top 10 prospect and he is number 1 in a couple of different places. He has absolutely dominated AA this year with a 1.06 ERA over 93 innings and a 40% K rate. What should we expect from him for the rest of the year? I don't think he has any innings concerns so I would expect him to be able to make 6-8 starts through the end of the season and be a big contributor in the fantasy playoffs. One of those starts might come at Coors so we may want to bench him there but everywhere else he should be a bona fide, no question, plug-and-play SP. It's pretty incredible that he is able to do this without really premium velocity. It's a fast ball that really only touches 97 on the highest end but has incredible shape due to the carry he is able to generate. It's very similar to how Bryan Woo was able to succeed with an elite fastball due to his elite shape but Kade Anderson is doing it from the left side with just as good (if not better) command. I'm typically conservative when it comes to minor league pitching so I'm probably lower on him than most but a couple of really solid starts will catapult him higher in my rankings. He could easily be a top 50 dynasty asset heading into 2026 if he excels in his first taste of big league action. Saturday's start will be must watch TV!
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.
