It’s important to give you 2nd basemen sleepers, but finding them was not easy. Spent longer than I care to admit (27 seconds) to try to find a good 2nd baseman that won’t be drafted high. Also, I know most of you play in 12-team mixed leagues, so I try not to give you too insanely deep sleepers. Please, blog, may I have some more?
1. SS Kevin McGonigle | 21 | AA | 2026
The 37th overall pick in the 2023 draft, McGonigle has great hands on both sides of the ball along with plus speed and burgeoning power. A left-handed hitter with a quick swing, he broke out in 2025, slashing .305/.408/.583 with 19 home runs and just 46 strikeouts against 59 walks in 88 games across three levels. McGonigle has one of my favorite prospect traits in that hitting is the easy part for him. Detroit’s not an easy park for lefty power, but the pitching in that division is soft, so maybe it all comes out in the wash.
In a tank of water, they submerge a metal milk can like the kind made famous by Harry Houdini. It’s wrapped in such thick chains it would make a rapper blush. A carnival barker tells the crowd, “Inside this secure milk can is Grey Albright. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Welcome back to my weekly rankings. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
This week is the Top 50 Dynasty Center Fielders for 2026.
The good news when it comes to this group is that it is young.
This is position for the younger players. Yes, there are 12 ranked players who are 30 or over, but none of them are older than 33, and that player is not a true outfielder. In the 25-29 age group we have 28 players, or 56% of the group. And out of those 28 players, nine of them are only 25 years old. If you lump them in with the 20-24 age group, that is 19 players, or 38%, who are 25 or younger who can slot in as your center fielder.
In our 118th episode, Mike Couillard and Jeremy Brewer discuss a collection of pitcher signings surely to impact the fantasy landscape before diving into the latest baseball card release from Topps, 2025 Allen & Ginter, hitting shelves on Dec. 3.

I’m not sure what I expected before diving into Pena’s underlying data, but with a closer look, the reasons for the gains weren’t obvious to see. I’ve tried to make sense of the data below, and ultimately, while it’s possible we’re staring at a bunch of statistical noise, I see enough here to think some real growth may have occurred in Pena’s game.
