Top 50 Dynasty Second Basemen for 2026 Fantasy Baseball

by: Jakkers

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.

Maybe It’s Time To Believe What My Eyes Are Seeing: Top 30 Middle Infielders Heading Into The Final 4 Weeks

September 4, 2025 | Players by Position, Second Basemen, Shortstops | 2 Comments

by: ADHamley

The last time I put out a rankings list was nearly 2 months ago as we were coming out of the All-Star Break. At that time, I was still hesitant to fully buy in when it came to players who have had unexpectedly good or bad seasons. Well, we’re running out of games to play, so maybe it’s time I come around on some players. As a result, you’ll see some fairly significant movement up and down this week’s ranks.

Reds Bringing Potato Sal Kid To The Labor Day BBQ

A creepy guy in a long trench coat, “Hey, wanna see something?” He flashes open his coat and inside the coat is dozens of corner infielders. That’s the Reds. They are the horniest anyone’s ever been for a corner infielder. Honestly, I didn’t even know that was a fetish, but I am not here to […]

Looking Ahead To Offseason Drafts: 4 Likely Discounts I’m Looking Forward To

August 21, 2025 | 2025 Fantasy Baseball, Second Basemen, Shortstops | 8 Comments

In reality, it’s probably a little too early to start looking seriously toward next season, but that’s what fantasy degenerates do. On the serious side, thinking through where players are likely to be picked this coming year compared with where they were picked this last year is an extremely valuable exercise in terms of finding potential value to profit from next year. If we can predict an approximate ADP for certain players, we can already determine if those players are going to be interesting to us based on cost. Fantasy leagues are won through the simple act of getting more value for a pick than the ADP would suggest.

Mookie Almost Certainly Isn’t Mookie Anymore – Is It Time To Move On From A First Round Pick?

Anyone who has watched Mookie Betts this year can see something is very wrong. Blame this year’s struggles on his preseason virus-related weight loss if you will, but that weight loss and weakness don’t explain away last year’s big dip in performance. Something is different, and it’s bad.

Rockies Run Right Into A Bello Net

I might have to make an executive decision and not feature anymore pitchers vs. the Rockies. It’s similar to how I don’t feature hitting performances when they’re in Coors. So, we’ll make a blood pact. If a guy pitches well, and it’s vs. the Rockies, then some ground rules for it to be a lede: […]
