Back at it here for another season at Razzball! Honored again to do the corners report every week, thanks for clicking. Here’s the top 20 first base ranks. First base, man, I miss first base so much. Just look at Grey’s post from 2008. Those numbers, like number 8 would be the best player in […]

Even with all of the (espresso-fueled) energy of the World Baseball Classic this week, we can’t forget there are still meaningful Spring Training games and position battles happening. In many ways, these games happening on small Spring Training fields across Florida and Arizona are much more meaningful for what we need to know this season. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Week one gave us the cornerstones. Week two moved into the roster-shaping middle where profit and risk begin to share the same zip code. Now we arrive at week three of the Top 100 Hitters for 2026, and this is where drafts quietly start to get won. This tier lives in the tension between upside and imperfection. The tools are obvious. The production often shows up in bursts. But something in the profile has kept these hitters just outside the top 50 to this point. Maybe it’s batting average volatility. Maybe it’s playing time questions, platoon exposure, or skills that still need refinement. In many cases the ceiling is high, but the floor just isn’t as comfortable. These are the hitters who can change the shape of a roster. The stars are mostly gone. The boring stability is mostly gone too. What’s left are players who provide a wider range of expected outcomes and can outperform their draft slot by a wide margin if the right skills click at the right time. Let’s get into the next 25.

‘Member the days when I told you that you needed to draft a top 1st baseman and you shouldn’t look for sleepers at this position? Don’t remember? Prolly for best, leave more room in your brain to remember excuses for why you don’t exercise. Previously, I’d tell you to go to my top 20 1st […]

Coming onto Razzball and providing player rankings and comments on draft values feels like walking onto The Great British Baking Show and telling Paul Hollywood how to make bread and cake. (I want to say Grey would be Paul in this comparison, but I think the flair for eyewear opens it up for debate.) Regardless, […]

Good morning, afternoon or evening – depending on when you are reading this. Welcome back to the second-to-last entry for the 2026 Dynasty Baseball Rankings. We started at No. 400 and now I will be featuring the players ranked from No. 50 to 26.
Here is a quick breakdown of the positions and ages of the players:
SP: 7
1B: 2 | 2B: 2 | 3B: 1 | SS: 6
LF: 2 | CF: 1 | OF: 2
IF/OF: 1
C: 1
Ages 20-24: 3
Ages 25-29: 16
Ages 30-34: 6
Looking at the information above, it is easy to see how I like to build my team early in the draft – load up on the top pitchers and get a top shortstop or two, or three.

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 […]

Hello friends, and welcome to another week of preseason fantasy baseball talk! As I continue to meander through a couple of NFBC slow drafts, there are a few trends emerging that, while not necessarily surprising, are worth noting and thinking about as more and more folks head into draft season. This week, which is my […]

Are the top 20 1st basemen for 2026 fantasy baseball good? How do you define good? Is good definable? Are you Plato? What is a Plato? Any hoo! This post goes on for about 1.8 million words, so let’s dive in. Here’s Steamer’s 2026 Fantasy Baseball Projections for Hitters and 2026 Fantasy Baseball Projections for Pitchers. The […]

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.

Today’s journey through the recaps take us to the 1st basemen. They’re better than the top 20 catchers for 2025 fantasy baseball (not clickbait), but by how much? How do I explain that? I have an idea! By recapping them! To recap my recap before the recap, this final ranking is from our Fantasy Baseball Player […]

Damn, the Phils McCrackin’ homers vs. Miami yesterday, hitting eight! Starting up the dong charger, Kyle Schwarber (4-for-5) hit his 55th and 56th homer. Only 16 players have 55 homers. In the history of baseball. No one is talking about Schwarber and he’s having a legit NL MVP season. Everyone is in the shadow of […]
