1. Red Sox OF Roman Anthony (20, AAA) 

Doing typical Roman stuff, conquering his contemporaries, slashing .313/.451/.588 with five home runs, two stolen bases, 21 strikeouts (20.6 percent) and 21 walks in 23 games. Ceddanne Rafaela has tripled his walk rate in the early going and has a 128 wRC+ since April 6. He’s an 80-grade defender in center field, so I don’t think he’s going anywhere, which I suppose surprises nobody who regularly reads this space. It’s gonna be interesting though. Wilyer Abreu can’t stop won’t stop hitting, and Jarren Duran is a core player. Can Rafael Devers play first base yet? Could Triston Casas be in trouble? He hit two homers this week, both of the three-run variety, but that’s all he’s done this week, and last week. Since April 6, he’s slashing .151/.286/.283 but with interesting plate skills: 12.7 percent walk rate and a 17.7 percent strikeout rate. If you’re playing a video game, you probably make that move today: call up Anthony and trade Casas. Rumor mill over the winter said the Red Sox were trying to swing a Casas trade, maybe even before the Bregman signing came through if I remember right. Tricky situation. Good problem to have though, especially in a video game.

Grey and B_Don are back for another Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast! We discuss a couple of Rockies prospects in Zac Veen and Chase Dollander, and if you should be adding them to your rosters. Jackson Merrill was an impact prospect last year, and has continued this year, but where do the guys have him ROS? […]

Here’s a link to my write up of the American League version of this league: 

In that article, I discuss my approach to this league: specifically, that I try to get money spent in smart places early, sit through the middle, and battle it out for every dollar in the end game. That’s kind of my general approach in auctions but especially in this one because the money is twice as fake here. Once you’re full at 2B, SS, MI and U, you cannot nominate or bid on a middle infielder. Oh and something I forgot to mention last time is the reserve draft. The auction only covers the starting lineups, then we switch to a seven-round reserve draft to close out the night. This creates something of a false auction that leaves value pools commensurate to the depth at each position.

1. Red Sox IF OF Kristian Campbell | 22 | AAA | 2025

Thanks in part to Campbell’s cooking in 2024, Boston has baseball’s best collection of position-player prospects right now. A fourth-round pick in 2023, he’s not exactly found money, but it’s not common to see a college hitter go from the 132nd pick to a consensus top five prospect in a calendar year, and a glow-up like that can alter a whole organization’s outlook. A right-handed hitter at 6’3” 191 lbs, Campbell worked with Boston’s coaches to alter his swing and unlock bat speed and generate a little more loft, and Soup responded by slashing .330/.439/.558 with 20 home runs and 24 steals in 115 games across three levels. He closed the season with 19 games at Triple-A, where he posted a .412 on base percentage with four homers and four steals. He’s listed here at all the positions he’s been playing in the minors, and while it seems likely he’ll settle in at second base or left field, it’s hard to put a ceiling on someone we just saw make a developmental leap on the other side of the ball. And for what it’s Werth, I wouldn’t quibble if anyone flipped Campbell and Anthony on any list. I swapped them back and forth a few times.

Happy New Year, everyone. We are one day closer to the start of the baseball season, which is really all we care about.

Today I tackle the second large group of player rankings in the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025. This is the 300-201 player grouping. After today, the final 200 players will be broken down into groups of 25.

In case you are new to my rankings, here is a simple breakdown of how I put these together…

Welcome back to another week of Top Dynasty Keepers for 2025. The spotlight turns to shortstops this week.

Unlike second base, which has a pretty steep drop off in talent outside the top 15 or so players, the shortstop position is loaded with talent, the type of talent that is ranked among the best in baseball, not just this position. The players ranked in Tier 2 will still provide solid production and that continues into the players ranked in Tier 3.

And this talent is young. Of the 30 players ranked in Tiers 1 through 3, 23 of them are under the age of 30. Missing out on a Tier 1 player is not going to cripple your team.

Now, let’s get to the rankings.
