The hot corner is back on the couch, and… it’s a ride. In this episode of the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, we break down third base rankings for 2026, we already covered the elite guys at the position in the top 20 podcast, but there’s still plenty of players to cover. We walk through the tiers, and, well, things get weird fast.
From there, it’s a tour through potentially rancid mayo, rebound cases, Statcast mirages, and power bats that may or may not still have pulse. We dig into Austin Riley’s troubling trends, Eugenio Suárez’s Reds reunion and power surge, Alex Bregman’s new Chicago glow-up, and the eternal question of whether this is finally the Matt Chapman season we deserve.
There’s upside plays (Royce Lewis, Noelvi Marte), belief-based drafting (Addison Barger, Murakami, Okamoto), aging stars testing our faith (Max Muncy, Arenado), and a long stretch of “do I need this guy or am I just panicking?” names that define deep-league 3B life. By the end, we’re firmly in Odds, Ends, and Mostly Butts territory.
If you’re drafting third base early, late, or hoping to avoid it altogether, this episode helps you figure out where the talent cliff actually is, who’s still worth believing in, and who’s just smiling through the pain.
