Mets LHP Zac Thornton (24) has authored a bright chapter during a dreary season for New York. A fifth-round pick in 2023, he’s got a 1.91 ERA and 0.86 WHIP through four outings covering 23.1 innings. He also recorded a 1.98 ERA and 0.81 WHIP in 72.2 innings across High-A and Double-A last season, so this kind of dominance isn’t entirely new to Thornton, who may not have many innings left in the chamber considering he’s at 86 already and that 72.2 is the highest single-season number he’s hit as a professional. The Mets will likely spend some money to fill out their rotation heading into 2027, but Thornton is already sneaking into that picture.

Hitters Aren’t Gavin A Good Time
July 23, 2026 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 95 Commentsby: Grey
Try not to do ledes about the same player, especially not in quick succession, but Gavin Williams is working with fire right now and there were five games yesterday. MLB doing their schedule: Rob Manfred, “Let’s put a game here, and here…” “Hey, Rob, like, I dig how you’re doing the schedule, ya know. Like […]

One super quick word about the top 20 2nd basemen for 2026 fantasy baseball and all the 2026 fantasy baseball rankings, each ranking appears insanely long and it is, but I imagine in a lot of leagues guys won’t have eligibility, because I’m using the extremely lax Yahoo position eligibility (five games started). Without further […]

Chicago Cubs Top 10 Prospects For 2025 Fantasy Baseball
October 13, 2024 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Featured | 7 Commentsby: The Itch
1. 3B Matt Shaw | 23 | AAA | 2025
He’s still listed at third base because that’s what he played this year, but Shaw is probably ticketed for the outfield with Isaac Paredes at the hot corner under team control through 2027. No reason he can’t contribute some infield innings here and there, which might be a better fit for his skillset anyway. In 121 games across two levels this year, Shaw slashed .284/.379/.488 with 21 home runs and 31 stolen bases despite a pretty slow start to the season. The 13th overall pick in 2023, he improved throughout the season, played better in AAA than AA and earned a shot to make the opening day roster but might get caught in the wash of Chicago’s off-season machinations. Probably should’ve been part of the team this year, too.

Since we have last spoken, or read, Razzball has been bumping with new content. I would suggest you read it, it’s really good content for your draft prep. Speaking of content for draft prep, I think I’ll be reading a lot of prospect content! I’ve hated prospects for quite some time, I’m told on social […]

Format = Position Player | Age on 4/1/2024 | Highest Level Played | Estimated Time of Arrival
1. RHP Cade Horton | 22 | AA | 2024
Horton heard his name during the seventh overall pick in the 2022 Rule 4 draft, and he’s been making noise ever since. In 21 games across three levels this season, he pitched 88.1 innings and recorded 117 strikeouts with a 1.00 WHIP and a 2.65 ERA. Word around the north side is that they’ll be extremely active in free agency, and it’s hard to disagree after seeing the cash they’re shelling out for new manager Craig Counsell, but I hope they only block Horton for legitimate rotation options. I think he could win a spot out of spring training if they’d let him.

Please, blog, may I have some more? Prospect News: Arizona Fall League Launches
October 18, 2023 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Featured | 7 Commentsby: The Itch
Like Jackie Daytona in Tucson, Arizoña, Fall baseball is timeless. The playoffs are great, for sure, especially whenever it looks Houston is on the outs, but it’s not just the biggest stars on the brightest stage that make this season special. The Arizona Fall League provides a chance for youngsters from all levels to get another few cracks at the bat before winter, another few sweepers and spiked curveballs in their efforts to become blood-thirsty creatures of the night, baseball-wise.
Padres OF Jakob Marsee got hotter and hotter throughout the regular season and is enjoying the chance to keep cooking under the desert sun, slashing .475/.569/.825 with ten strikeouts, eight walks, seven steals and two home runs. San Diego’s outfield picture is a little cloudy right now, but we should be able to (mar)see it much more clearly closer to spring.

Hey Chicago, whaddya say?
Mervis is gonna mash today!
1. 1B Matt Mervis | 24 | AAA | 2023
The 6’4” 225 lb Mervis hit 36 home runs in 137 games across three levels and keeps on hitting them in the Arizona Fall League, where he’s got five homers in 13 games. He has struck out and walked thrice a piece, continuing the case of the disappearing strikeouts after K-ing in just 14.6 percent of his Triple-A plate appearances. Should open 2022 in the major league lineup.
