The World Baseball Classic is underway, leaving most major league rosters ripe with opportunity. Also with some soft spots. The stats could get weird for a little while here. We’re always taking spring outcomes with a grain of salt anyway, but it can be tough when a guy I like for a breakout like Twins RHP Taj Bradley cruises through four scoreless innings against a Yankees lineup with four regulars.

I don’t know of a better way to introduce this piece than to lean into the braggadocio right off the bat, even as bragging comes about as naturally as dunking a basketball to me. I’m just not sure why you’d give a shit what I have to say about a 12-team AL Only auction among fantasy analysts except that I won it back-to-back in 2022 and 2023. It’s kind of an odd set-up in that we fill our starting lineups via auction and then draft a seven-man bench. This nudges me towards a stars and scrubs dynamic despite my occasional efforts to distribute the funds evenly throughout my build.

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 […]

Another week is in the books, meaning I welcome you back for another installment of the 2026 Dynasty Rankings. After two weeks of looking at huge chunks of players, we finally get down to the smaller groupings of 25 players each week.

There are a few players in the below rankings that could be much better than where they are currently ranked. If I am building a team from scratch and doing these rankings, I’d bump them up. But not everyone is building from scratch – they are trying to fill holes and thus care more about the present than the upside some players may have. So my balancing act means the players landed in this group.

Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the Top 50 Dynasty Second Basemen for 2026 rankings.

Looking at this position overall, it is weak. Second basemen this season slashed .243/.310/.378 with a wRC+ of 92. The SLG, OPS and wRC+ ranked last among all positions. I guess the good news is that as far as average and OBP second basemen ranked fourth and fifth out of the eight positions.

Additionally, many of players in this group aren’t even fulltime second baseman. Many can play third or short or somewhere in the outfield, and those may actually be their primary positions.

Once you get past the top 15 or so players, it is crapshoot as to who to target. If you are rebuilding, just go young – for players like Kristian Campbell, Christian Moore or Kyren Paris. If you are wanting to win now and need someone who will likely play a lot of games, go for a veteran like Marcus Semien, Mauricio Dubon (who can play nearly anywhere) or a Jeff McNeil.

Another week is in the books, meaning it is time for the weekly dynasty rankings for 2026. This week is the Top 50 Dynasty First Basemen for 2026.

The good news when it comes to this position is it is by far the strongest when it comes to fantasy baseball. Among the eight positions, as a group first basemen ranked second in batting average and first in OBP, SLG, OPS and wRC+. If you are in need of power, this is the position to target as well as tap into to fill out a corner infield slot.

The bad new when it comes to this position is that a lot of the top players in this group are in their 30s. Here is the age breakdown of this position:

35+: 3
30-34: 14
25-29: 27
20-24: 6

Thirty-four percent of the players ranked are 30 or older. Of those 17 players, seven are in the top 20. There are some good, young first basemen, but they are still behind a host of veterans.

From a dynasty standpoint, if you have one of the young guns, be extremely happy. Otherwise you may want to use this position to fill a hole on the short term and and hope the youngsters you target or currently have actually develop.

So let’s get on with the Top 50 Dynasty First Basemen for 2026.
