Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the second installment of the 2026 Dynasty Rankings.

Last week I knocked out players ranked from 400-301. This week I tackle another huge chunk of players: 300-201.

Being such a large group, here is a quick breakdown of the positions and ages of the players:

RP: 21 | SP: 19
1B: 6 | 2B: 4 | 3B: 8 | SS: 4 | IF: 8
RF: 3 | CF: 4 | LF: 4 | OF: 9
IF/OF: 6
Ages 20-24: 17
Ages 25-29: 52
Ages 30-34: 27
Ages 35+: 6

As you can see, there are many relief pitchers in this grouping, and trying to say who will break out and who will regress is always a guessing game. I believe these are the best of the middle relievers with a few closers sprinkled in as well.

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.

In exactly three weeks, we can begin to get excited about the Orioles again. Forget Gunnar’s bad season — his what season? I don’t know in three weeks. Can re-glimmerize Jackson Holliday. Can start thinking Mayo is cool and not just Michael Helman’s hot streak. Is Grayson returning at some point? Great! Dylan Beavers? Damn […]

Nothing is normal in Seattle this year. It’s like grunge has returned but as a clean-shaven Buddy Holly Happy Days music. Coffee is now tea, and the space needle is shooting adrenaline directly into our hearts. This team is an offensive juggernaut, emphasis on jugger, deemphasize naut. They were in Atlanta yesterday, who is also […]

When I started writing for this site three years ago (continually dodging the pink slip from the Grey Reaper), ranks were my favorite thing. I did them every week! That was extra, though. Now it’s pre-season, mid-season, and…………. End-ish of season. Ranks are kinda boring without some sort of context attached to them. So, this […]
