This is the top 100 starters for 2026 fantasy baseball? This is the top 100 starters for 2026 fantasy baseball! Which means. Dot dot dot. This is the end of the 2026 fantasy baseball rankings. I can reclaim my fingers! Wait, I still have to do the top 100 overall and top 500 overall. Hmm, […]

1. Brewers SS Jesus Made | 18 | AA | 2026
A 6’1” 187 pound switch-hitter with power and plate skills beyond his years, Made is the top prospect for our game in my opinion and a consensus top-five prospect for any purpose no matter who’s sorting the list. In 115 across three levels, Made slashed .285/.379/.413 with six home runs and 47 stolen bases. He was 2.4 years young for the level in Low-A, 4.2 years young for the level in High-A, and 5.7 years younger than the average age at the level during his five-game debut with Double-A Biloxi to close out the season. He was slow to get settled into full-season pro ball after skipping the complex league but was dominant in High-A, slashing .343/.415/.500 in 27 games, and I suspect we’ll see a lot of that moving forward.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Ok, Star Wars gif guy, let’s not get too dramatic here. But for what it’s worth, it works – and at least we didn’t use AI for this one because I don’t know if I can survive that kind of roast again. Let’s not allow this to get in the way of the important […]

I couldn’t stop circling the same thought Friday in the aftershock of Kyle Tucker to Los Angeles then Bo Bichette to New York: these Mets look like the worst team you could put together while spending $336 million. Their ace is Nolan McLean: a prospect I really like but also an inexperienced rookie. All rookies lack experience, but McLean was a two-way player until just a few years ago. Again, no shade, it’s just weird to spend $336 million on a baseball team and have mostly question marks on the pitching staff.

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.

As mentioned in the Nolan McLean rookie outlook, he is better than Jonah Tong. Eat a D, Tong! Haha, got his ass. [intern whispers] Oh, I’m hearing Jonah Tong is good too. Well, yeah, dur! That’s why we’re here! So, Itch wrote up his top 10 Mets prospects and there he said, “Tong’s four-seam fastball […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Another week is in the books, leading to this weeks Top 100 Dynasty Starting Pitchers for 2026.
Last week we examined the top 50 relievers, and if you missed that post, the link can be found at the bottom of this post. But let’s not look backward. Instead, let’s look toward next year and who I think the top starters are.
Here is a quick snapshot of the age breakdown of starting pitchers:
35+: 9
30-34: 28
25-29: 48
20-24: 15
As you can see, I have a wide range of ages when it comes to the rankings, but I skew heavily to pitchers young than 30 as those who are between the ages of 20-29 make up 63% of the players ranked.
While I am often conservative when it comes to the really young starters, that is reserved mostly for those under the age of 25. Yet I firmly believe in a few of those really young hurlers and they are ranked accordingly high.
So let’s get on with the Top 100 Dynasty Starting Pitchers for 2026.

1. RHP Nolan McLean | 24 | MLB | 2025
McLean might actually be a little closer to Lincecum than Tong in terms of stuff and approach to the game. His is more or less a “let’s see if you can hit this” style of pitching, featuring nasty stuff that moves all over the zone. He throws six different pitches at least nine percent of the time, and his sweeper is the only one that’s gotten hit this season. He’s throwing it 26 percent of the time even though batters are hitting .361 with a .528 slugging percentage against it. If he can back off on that pitch and maintain the results from the others, he’s going to be a monster for a long time. At 6’2” 212 lbs with another life as a position player, he’s got a lot of upside that the Mets are quickly unearthing. To even call it upside feels ludicrous looking at his 2.08 ERA through 48 major league innings. Reading these last few sentences back to myself made me bump McLean ahead of Tong, for what that’s worth.

Damn, the Phils McCrackin’ homers vs. Miami yesterday, hitting eight! Starting up the dong charger, Kyle Schwarber (4-for-5) hit his 55th and 56th homer. Only 16 players have 55 homers. In the history of baseball. No one is talking about Schwarber and he’s having a legit NL MVP season. Everyone is in the shadow of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! Last week, I wrote about how this time of the year is a tough one to navigate when you’re deciding on which starting pitchers to activate from week to week. Many teams are managing their pitchers’ workloads, skipping rotation pieces, and calling up young arms for spot starts. Other teams that […]

One Cy Young next year, then two Cy Youngs, then three Cy Youngs in 2029 (by 2029 they’ll be giving out three Cy Youngs per year). Then the Hall of Fame chatter starts up, as he approaches 50 wins, the new benchmark for pitchers. I’m, of course, talking about Hunter Greene. Yesterday, he went 9 […]
