As we dive deeper into the 2025 fantasy baseball season, player trends are starting to solidify and savvy managers are already separating from the pack. Whether you’re chasing the next breakout, cutting ties with underperformers, or stashing value before a big-league call-up, this week’s risers, fallers, and sleepers can make all the difference. Injuries are piling up, early-season hot streaks are proving legit, and those cold Aprils? They’re quickly turning into red flags. This week, we spotlight Tyler Soderstrom’s scorching bat lighting up Sacramento a rising in our rankings along with digging into Vinnie Pasquantino’s disappearing act at the plate. Let’s break down the latest movement in our Top 100 Hitters for the rest of the 2025 fantasy baseball season.

Welcome to the most volatile stage of the season, the early shuffle. Two weeks in, and the stat lines are loud enough to catch your attention but still small enough to lie to your face. It’s the perfect cocktail of confirmation bias and premature panic. Some breakouts are blossoming right on schedule, others are bluffing. We’ve seen enough to start tweaking the board for guys like Aaron Judge who looks like he’s auditioning for a Marvel movie with the way he’s smashing baseballs. However, this is also where fantasy managers get themselves in trouble by chasing ghosts or giving up on stars too soon. The key is balancing data with discipline. We’re weighing playing time trends, barrel rates, and underlying metrics that signal legitimate growth but we’re not ready to walk away from proven talent just yet. So shuffle up, deal in, and let’s navigate the chaos. The top 100 hitters for the rest of the 2025 fantasy baseball season have moved with some names are rising like rockets while others are sinking like stones. Let’s dig in.
Please, blog, may I have some more?The long, cold offseason is finally over, and the crack of the bat, the pop of the mitt, and the hum of ballpark anticipation are back. Opening Day isn’t just a celebration of baseball’s return—it’s a reset button for fantasy managers everywhere. We all know that spring training doesn’t mean everything, but don’t tell that to the Blue Jays and Giants, who are claiming early victories with impressive performances. As much as we try to look the other way, there are always nuggets of information for fantasy owners to mine. Spring training breakouts, injury recoveries, and early lineup decisions have reshuffled the landscape, making now the perfect time to refresh our Top 100 Hitters for the 2025 fantasy baseball season. Good luck this season, and thanks for following along!

Welcome back to the continuation of our series breaking down the Top 100 Hitters for the 2025 fantasy baseball season. We are midway through, and this week we have an opportunity to dive into the part of the draft with so much uncertainty, it’s like trying to guess where a knuckleball is going in a hurricane. Where there is uncertainty for many, there is opportunity for the savvy. This group features exciting players who are just looking to put it all together for a full season, such as Royce Lewis or Lawrence Butler. On the other side of the coin, there are players who simply need to stay healthy for the majority of the year, like Mike Trout or Christian Yelich. There is no question that limitless potential exists as we hit the middle rounds of a fantasy draft, yet the most important thing for a drafter is to stick to their strategy and get their guys. Let’s hunker down and continue our trounce through the Top 100 Hitters for the 2025 fantasy baseball season with hitters 41 through 60.

Terrible analogies aside, this part of the draft should still provide reliable value. However, if you’re not careful, you might be reaching beyond a player’s true ability. Buckle up, grab that medium latte, and let’s break down the top 40 hitters for the 2025 fantasy baseball season.

We’re hitting our stride coming into the home stretch, like Cole Hocker trying to win the 1500-meter race. Putting the pressure on the rest of the field, Bobby Witt Jr. is doing his best to make the American League MVP race respectable. Hitting a cool .430 with seven homers and a combined 47 runs and RBIs over the last 30 days, he has us questioning everything about who should be the number one hitter for the rest of the season. As Witt shakes up the top of the order for our list this week, Jackson Holliday is also making up for lost time in Baltimore. Holliday burst onto the scene launching homers in three straight games to announce his arrival. How far up does the youngster climb the rest of the season?
