The Major League Baseball season is still going as we are in the middle of the playoffs and barreling toward the World Series. But when it it comes to fantasy baseball and dynasty leagues, the season is over. But while there are no lineups to to worry about, that doesn’t mean the this is the […]

1. OF Dylan Crews | 23 | MLB | 2024
Here’s what I wrote about Crews in Prospect News: The Future Is Not A Game or Collier Daddy:
“It’s hard to say somebody lost any dynasty value during a seven-inning exhibition, but Nationals OF Dylan Crews took some some strays during the broadcast, who agreed he was something of a ho-hum, 25-homer, gets-his-numbers-by-season’s-end type of compiler who doesn’t have great speed but knows how to swipe a base. That’s been pretty much my read all along, but it was kind of odd to hear it during what’s meant to be a two-hour hype fest.”
Nothing’s really changed since then. Crews made his debut. Slashed .218/.288/.353 over 31 games. He’s ranked first here because it’s unreasonable to rank him after the super young pitchers. I’m kinda out on him until/unless something changes.
Please, blog, may I have some more?We already went over the top 20 catchers and the top 20 1st basemen for 2024 fantasy baseball. Today, we dip our big toe into the top 20 2nd basemen pool. Make sure to go feet first here, because it’s shallow and I don’t want you cracking your medulla oblongata all over the place. To recap this crap […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Today’s journey through the recaps take us to the 1st basemen. They’re better than the top 20 catchers for 2024 fantasy baseball (not clickbait at all), but by how much? How do I explain that? I have an idea! By recapping them! To recap my recap before the recap, this final ranking is from our Fantasy Baseball Player Rater […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?1. OF Justin Crawford | 21 | AA | 2025
A right-handed thrower and left-handed hitter at 6’2” 188 lbs, Justin Crawford evokes his father at a glance and on the field, prompting the Phillies to take him 17th overall in 2022. The game moved in his direction over that off-season, opening up the base paths to speedsters with the aggression to run. In 110 games across two levels this year, Crawford swiped 42 bases in 51 attempts while slashing .313/.360/.444 with nine home runs and 93 strikeouts.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Please don’t ask if this is a ranking for next year. It’s not a ranking for next year. It’s me recapping last season. Please, for the love that all is holy, understand this. It’s all I ask of you. Well, that and shower me with praise. The latter isn’t hard, the former is. Also, remembering […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Start the drum roll! Twenty-seven weeks down and now we have twenty-five more until the start of next year’s fantasy baseball season. It’s (almost) perfect symmetry because fantasy baseball is the perfect fantasy sport. But, before we turn our eyes to next season we first have to recap this past season, and with that, our […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?1. OF Jett Williams | 20 | AAA | 2025
A wrist injury that required surgery cost the 5’7” 175 lb Williams most of this season, but he returned in time for six games in Triple-A and posted a .533 on base percentage. Prospect development is not linear, and Williams has lost some key development time, but he’s in the Corbin Carroll bucket as a top tier athlete with elite hands who can cheat the norms. He’s played just 36 games in the upper minors but could look like an opening day roster option next season, and even if he’s sent down for seasoning (the likeliest outcome), he could force his way into the lineup by May.
Please, blog, may I have some more?For the last episode of the 2024 season on the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, Grey and B_Don draft the top 25 for 2025.

Please, blog, may I have some more?Emerging from your mother’s basement after six months, “I did it! I won my fantasy baseball league!” It begins to dawn on you that the world no longer looks as you remember it. Where there were once blossoming trees, there’s now decaying branches. Where flowers once sprouted, shriveled vines remained. A tumbleweed blows past. Minutes […]
