What the staff says

JD on Taj Bradley (Jun 3, 2026): I'm sort of a buyer here, I loved the profile with the Rays but for some reason he couldn't put it together. Same thing happened to Baz and I wouldn't say Baz is killing it in Baltimore but he does seem to look slightly better and he is finding his groove over the last month. For some guys the Rays system works and for some it doesn't. There's a lesson there going forward that some talented pitchers may not thrive with the Rays but they are worth following to their next teams.

JD on Zack Wheeler (Aug 3, 2026): I'm very tempted to knock Zack Wheeler further down in the rankings due to his age, but he continues to perform at an insanely elite level and maintain premium velocity despite an injury that would be the death knell for most pitchers. You don't want to be left holding the bag when something goes sideways, and no player loses their value faster than a 35+ year old SP who goes down with an injury. Obviously no rule should be applied uniformly and you know the idiosyncrasies of your own league, but just know if you are riding the hot hand in Wheeler just know you are playing with fire.
