The Nats declared the A’s home field a Nationals Park Friday after Washington scored a franchise-record 23 runs on 21 hits and handed the lowly Athletics their tenth straight loss. With a score like 23-4, Nats seem more than ready for football season. Same Nats, same. How early is too early to draft Kyle Pitts. […]

Elly De La Cruz
Please see our player page for Elly De La Cruz 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.
Last week, we started the conversation by looking at 20 hitters who could realistically enter the 2027 fantasy baseball season as candidates to be the No. 1 overall hitter. Now comes the harder part. Turning 20 names into 10. The goal is simple. Find the best combination of ceiling, floor, category coverage, and confidence that the production will actually show up. Fantasy baseball is a game of maximizing probabilities. The player with the most exciting outcome is not always the best pick. A hitter who can produce in five categories, stay on the field, and avoid catastrophic downside often provides more value than a player with a higher theoretical ceiling but more paths to disappointment.

July 13, 2026 | Fantasy Baseball Rankings | 238 Commentsby: Grey
Before we get into the top 100 for the 2nd half of 2026 fantasy baseball, let’s just be glad our 18-year-old selves can’t see us now, we’d get beat up! But our twelve-year-old selves would think we’re the coolest! So, as with all of the other 2026 fantasy baseball rankings, slop this up with a […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The All-Star break always feels like the perfect time to look ahead. Not to the second half of 2026 as that story is still being written. Instead, let’s jump ahead to next spring’s fantasy drafts. If the 2027 fantasy baseball season started tomorrow, who would you want with the first overall pick? That’s the question we’ll answer next week when I unveil my Top 10 hitters for 2027. Before we get there, though, we need to establish the player pool. This isn’t a dynasty ranking. Prospect pedigree doesn’t matter. Age only matters if it changes next year’s outlook.

So, our dreams of a World Cup championship came to an end in the US. I was super invested for three games. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. Belgium putting on such a show that you wouldn’t know their day started with them losing their unis and having to wear the Marlins city connect jerseys. […]

I put it off as long as I could. It’s not that I’m against rankings. I quite like reading them and using them. And I don’t have any problem doing them on a small-scale, position-by-position basis. But how the 5th best SS compares to the 13th best OF and the 9th best SP? How do […]

Up the Middle: Whoaaa, We’re Halfway There!

In 1985, New Jersey was not having a great time. There were factories that were going overseas so corporations could take advantage of cheaper labor. The blue collar class was struggling, and a band from the area decided to encapsulate that feeling. They told the story of Tommy and Gina, two New Jerseyites who were […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yesterday, Cameron Cauley (1-for-3, 2 runs) was called up by the Rangers. This past Sunday Itch just gave you his latest Prospect Stash list and had Cauley as the guy he highlighted. That’s impressive, because I had no idea who Cauley was prior, and Itch predicted it 24 hours prior. It’s a cool parlor trick, […]

Mariners decided to do a little switcheroo with their starters. They said every Mariners starter will rotate through and have piggyback days through the All-Star break. My 1st pitcher drafted is now an Opener? Oh man, this sucks. I blame Luis Castillo. He threw such a hissy fit the Mariners figured the only way to […]

Howdy doo, Razzballeroos! Happy Ham Week. This week, we acknowledge at least four hitters (Oneil Cruz, Munetaka Murakami, Ronald Acuña Jr., Teoscar Hernández) who were victims of hammies shredded worse than some Thanksgiving leftovers. Ham not your thing? We also have Aaron Judge’s ribs. Not into cannibalism? There is a vegan place conveniently located next […]
