Please see our player page for Bryce Harper to see projections for today, the next 7 days and rest of season as well as stats and gamelogs designed with the fantasy baseball player in mind.

The first week of our rankings was about laying the foundation. The blue-chip anchors. The names that cost you real draft capital but give you category stability in return. Now we turn the page to week two of the Top 100 Hitters for 2026. This is where roster construction gets real. Power sources with batting average risk. Higher variability speed plays that can swing a standings column. Bankable veterans being drafted next to post-hype breakouts. The projections may look similar on the surface, but the paths to getting there couldn’t be more different. As always, this isn’t just a ranking of talent. It’s an evaluation of underlying skill and most importantly draft cost relative to production. We’re not chasing name value. We’re chasing leverage. The middle tiers win leagues. Miss here, and you spend all season patching holes. Nail this pocket of hitters, and you give yourself flexibility when the draft room starts reaching. Let’s keep building the board.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another entry of the 2026 Dynasty Baseball Rankings. Baseball is back and all is right with the world, except for where it isn’t but let’s not dwell on that.

Instead, lets dwell on the 25 players I have ranked this year between No. 75 and 51. There is a solid group of starting pitchers ranked below as well as infielders overall, with most of those players being first baseman.

Here is a quick breakdown of the positions and ages of the players:

SP: 9
1B: 5 | 2B: 1 | 3B: 1 | SS: 2 | IF: 1
LF: 2 | OF: 3
Ages 20-24: 2
Ages 25-29: 11
Ages 30-34: 9
Ages 35+: 3

Hello, all you brave, courageous, adventure-seekers, you’ve found the wrong website. This is fantasy baseball, not fantasy role playing, unless it’s fantasy roll-playing and this is Stratomatic, but that’s still not right. Still, fantasy baseball. Good, now that we got rid of all those people wearing fedoras and shopping from the Indiana Jones collection at […]

Another week is in the books, meaning it is time for the weekly dynasty rankings for 2026. This week is the Top 50 Dynasty First Basemen for 2026.

The good news when it comes to this position is it is by far the strongest when it comes to fantasy baseball. Among the eight positions, as a group first basemen ranked second in batting average and first in OBP, SLG, OPS and wRC+. If you are in need of power, this is the position to target as well as tap into to fill out a corner infield slot.

The bad new when it comes to this position is that a lot of the top players in this group are in their 30s. Here is the age breakdown of this position:

35+: 3
30-34: 14
25-29: 27
20-24: 6

Thirty-four percent of the players ranked are 30 or older. Of those 17 players, seven are in the top 20. There are some good, young first basemen, but they are still behind a host of veterans.

From a dynasty standpoint, if you have one of the young guns, be extremely happy. Otherwise you may want to use this position to fill a hole on the short term and and hope the youngsters you target or currently have actually develop.

So let’s get on with the Top 50 Dynasty First Basemen for 2026.

Giants lied to us. They said they weren’t calling up Bryce Eldridge (0-for-3) this year. Just thought about the Lilliputian who read, “Giants lied to us,” stopped reading and started running through town, screaming bloody murder. Come back, wee friends! I’m talking about the San Francisco Giants! One Lilliputian who was planning on visiting San […]
