Oakland Las Vegas Sacramento Athletics starting pitcher Gunnar Hoglund was firing on all cylinders Friday night (no scope!) in his MLB debut pitching six strong innings, allowing six hits and striking out seven Marlins for his first career win. Gunnar going whole Hoglund! You might remember Gunnar as the primary return piece in the Matt […]

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…

Happy New Year and Happy Holidays. I hope the holiday season has been one of joy and happiness for you.

That said, welcome to the first installment of the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025. This week and next I will take two giant bites out of the countdown as I rank the players from 400-301 this week and then 300-201 the following week. After that will come bite sized looks of the final 200 players.

I know for a fact that some of you will not like my rankings. But I have my biases and certain ways I evaluate fantasy players and have done so for decades. So take these rankings as a starting point and adjust as you see fit. No matter what, I hope these rankings will be a useful tool for you.

Secondly, you will not see any prospects in my rankings unless they have debuted in the majors. So you will not see Anthony Quinn ranked, nor Owen Cassie or a host of other top prospects. I also did not rank Kumar Rocker as 11.2 innings of work on the MLB level barely counts. But if you are wondering, I really like him as I traded for him in two leagues earlier this offseason.

With that said, let’s get started.

Welcome back to another installment of Top Dynasty Keepers for 2025. We have made our trip around the infield as we highlight the third basemen this week.

This is an interesting position. There is some solid depth as you can land a good starter from the Tier 2 group or even Tier 3 if one of those players has a breakout year. But the top talent skews toward the older side as six of my top 20 players are 31 years old or older.

There are some solid players who are in their 20s, but there is no Bobby Witt Jr. or Gunnar Henderson in this group.

Overall, it is a position with one great player, a lot of above average players and then a gaggle of players who have the potential to be above average but are not there yet.

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.

We were cruising with our streamers going into last week, but that wasn’t my best showing. Trevor Rogers really crapped on our week with that Saturday stinker but the rest of the results were okay. That will happen every once in a while when evaluating streamers because they guys are naturally volatile players. That’s definitely […]
