Please see our player page for Josh Naylor to see projections for today, the next 7 days and rest of season as well as stats and gamelogs designed with the fantasy baseball player in mind.

The first week of our rankings was about laying the foundation. The blue-chip anchors. The names that cost you real draft capital but give you category stability in return. Now we turn the page to week two of the Top 100 Hitters for 2026. This is where roster construction gets real. Power sources with batting average risk. Higher variability speed plays that can swing a standings column. Bankable veterans being drafted next to post-hype breakouts. The projections may look similar on the surface, but the paths to getting there couldn’t be more different. As always, this isn’t just a ranking of talent. It’s an evaluation of underlying skill and most importantly draft cost relative to production. We’re not chasing name value. We’re chasing leverage. The middle tiers win leagues. Miss here, and you spend all season patching holes. Nail this pocket of hitters, and you give yourself flexibility when the draft room starts reaching. Let’s keep building the board.

Can you smell what’s floating in the air? That’s right, it is the smell of baseball.

We are only days aways from the official start of spring training, and with Opening Day getting closer and closer, so too is my countdown of the 2026 Dynasty Baseball Rankings toward the top player. After starting at No. 400, the countdown is finally turning inside the top 100 as I feature players ranked 100 to 76.

Here is a quick breakdown of the positions and ages of the players:

SP: 8
C: 3 | 1B: 3 | 2B: 2 | 3B: 2 | SS: 2 | IF: 1
CF: 1 | RF: 1 | OF: 2
IF/OF: 1
Ages 20-24: 2
Ages 25-29: 15
Ages 30-34: 8
Ages 35+: 0

The first thing you notice with the positional breakdown is the fact that there are a lot of positions represented in this group. The only position group not showing up is a left fielder and relief pitcher. And I can let you know now there will be no more relievers showing up in my rankings.

Hello, all you brave, courageous, adventure-seekers, you’ve found the wrong website. This is fantasy baseball, not fantasy role playing, unless it’s fantasy roll-playing and this is Stratomatic, but that’s still not right. Still, fantasy baseball. Good, now that we got rid of all those people wearing fedoras and shopping from the Indiana Jones collection at […]

I’m not sure what I expected before diving into Pena’s underlying data, but with a closer look, the reasons for the gains weren’t obvious to see. I’ve tried to make sense of the data below, and ultimately, while it’s possible we’re staring at a bunch of statistical noise, I see enough here to think some real growth may have occurred in Pena’s game.
