Here’s how this JJ Bleday sleeper came into being: I saw he made good contact, then I spent about an hour trying to figure out how to not write this post. Sadly, at each thing I looked at, I still liked him. Why did I not want to write about JJ Bleday? Well, it’s a […]

1. OF Walker Jenkins | 20 | AA | 2026
A left-handed hitter at 6’3” 210 lbs, Jenkins walked more than he struck out and slashed .282/.394/.439 in 82 professional games during his first full season. The sixth overall pick in the stacked 2023 class, Jenkins took the top spot on this list last year and is the odds-on favorite to claim it again next season unless the Twinkies really slam the gas on his development: an outcome he might invite with a hot start at Double-A.
Please, blog, may I have some more?So, I don’t love giving 1st basemen as sleepers, because I believe you need to draft a top one. Why? If everyone in your league has a great 1st baseman, it does not help you to have a lousy one. Très simple, as they say in Frenchlish class. I took a Frenchlish class, which was […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy New Year, everyone. We are one day closer to the start of the baseball season, which is really all we care about.
Today I tackle the second large group of player rankings in the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025. This is the 300-201 player grouping. After today, the final 200 players will be broken down into groups of 25.
In case you are new to my rankings, here is a simple breakdown of how I put these together…
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy New Year, RazzNation! It’s that time of year… Our v1 of the Razzball/Steamer player projections are up. You can find them in the top menu under Projections or use these links (Hitters | Pitchers): Here is a Razzball/Steamer projections FAQ. They’ll be updated throughout the preseason. All the preseason Player Raters are up. You […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I told you once, I told you a million times that there’s no one way to skin a fantasy baseball sleeper. They’re not all “draft after the top 400 and return top 200 value.” A lot of them are not, tee bee aitch. I was looking through Steamer projections again, and, besides stumbling on seeing […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Wow, Corbin Burnes signed to the Diamondbacks, and the Giants didn’t even get Arson Burnes. Supposedly, Corbin Burnes wanted to stay close to home, so he passed up a $250 million deal with an AL East team and signed with the Diamondbacks for $210 million. Corbin Burnes, 100% certified Wife Guy. Imagine that convo if […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?1. 1B Jac Caglianone | 22 | A+ | 2026
Announced as a two-way player, Caglianone was deployed first in the pros as a full-time hitter after slashing .419/.544/.875 with 35 home runs in 66 games for Florida. The well-developed, left-handed college bat made a nice fit at sixth overall for a Royals team on the rise. With Vinnie P at the slow corner, Caglianone could perhaps fake left field until he figured it out if necessary. The arm would even play in right once he’s accustomed to the angles, but at 6’5” 250 lbs, he may not have the mobility to learn on the fly out there. He didn’t blow the doors off the leagues he’s played as a pro but did pop five homers in 21 games in the Arizona Fall League.
Please, blog, may I have some more?I don’t like writing sleeper posts about the same guy more than once in a three-year period. If I wrote a Maikel Garcia sleeper last year, I would not be here today, no matter how much I liked him, and I do like him. Have to admit to making sure I didn’t write a Maikel […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy New Year and Happy Holidays. I hope the holiday season has been one of joy and happiness for you.
That said, welcome to the first installment of the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025. This week and next I will take two giant bites out of the countdown as I rank the players from 400-301 this week and then 300-201 the following week. After that will come bite sized looks of the final 200 players.
I know for a fact that some of you will not like my rankings. But I have my biases and certain ways I evaluate fantasy players and have done so for decades. So take these rankings as a starting point and adjust as you see fit. No matter what, I hope these rankings will be a useful tool for you.
Secondly, you will not see any prospects in my rankings unless they have debuted in the majors. So you will not see Anthony Quinn ranked, nor Owen Cassie or a host of other top prospects. I also did not rank Kumar Rocker as 11.2 innings of work on the MLB level barely counts. But if you are wondering, I really like him as I traded for him in two leagues earlier this offseason.
With that said, let’s get started.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Look at position eligibility like this, you have a toolbox filled with different positions, and you need a certain position for a certain hole in your lineup, or a screw for a certain hole to secure a latch. If you use the wrong screw, then the latch will be loose and you’ll need to translate […]
