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.

1. RHP Jackson Jobe | 22 | MLB | 2024

At his best, Jobe pairs impeccable command with incredible spin rates. His four-pitch mix is headlined by a hungry four-seamer that eats all over the strike zone, where he might need to live a little more going forward, even as he managed a 1.95 ERA and 1.04 WHIP despite a 4.64 BB/9 rate across 73.2 Double-A innings. He allowed just two home runs over that stretch. He’ll almost certainly look like one of the team’s five best starters in spring training, but he’s thrown just 13 innings above Double-A, so there’s at least a chance he opens the season in Triple-A. The name itself portends at least a little suffering before reaching the promised land.

Welcome back to another installment of Top Dynasty Keepers for 2025. We have made our trip around the infield as we highlight the third basemen this week.

This is an interesting position. There is some solid depth as you can land a good starter from the Tier 2 group or even Tier 3 if one of those players has a breakout year. But the top talent skews toward the older side as six of my top 20 players are 31 years old or older.

There are some solid players who are in their 20s, but there is no Bobby Witt Jr. or Gunnar Henderson in this group.

Overall, it is a position with one great player, a lot of above average players and then a gaggle of players who have the potential to be above average but are not there yet.

The Cubs released closer Hector Neris, which probably makes Jorge Lopez the closer for now. The club also recalled deadline acquisition RHP Jack Neely, a former Yankees prospect who checks in at a gargantuan 6’8” 245 lbs. He’s thrown 6.2 scoreless innings with a 52 percent strikeout rate for Triple-A Iowa since the trade that sent him there. RHP Porter Hodge is the early favorite for the gig in 2025 until further notice, specifically a notice of the club getting involved in the reliever reclamation market as it often does. RHP Tyson Miller has been excellent this season but doesn’t feature the wipeout arsenal most teams want in a guy who handles the ninth. Meanwhile, jettisoned Cubbie farmhands RHPs Manuel Rodriguez and Jeremiah Estrada are key pieces of other teams’ bullpens. I won’t count RHP Hunter Bigge because he at least was traded for something. Can’t win ‘em all, I realize, but here’s hoping Neely gets a real opportunity to nail down a long-term roster spot.

On this week’s Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, Grey and B_Don talk about some of the possible impact call-ups. The Rays have called up Junior Caminero and surprisingly are allowing for service time while the Yankees called up and sent back down Jasson Dominguez. The Tigers called up Jace Jung and Trey Sweeney, but which guy […]
