Welcome to the first week of corner infield things with actual game data! It’s a fun time of year. No need to worry about slow starts yet, and many hot starts to go through. There are a couple of rookies who are adding a dash of excitement to the mix. Here we go! Nah, wait, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Baseball, like a flower, blooms in the spring. They also share equally effusive PR people. Just the other day I read about how a petunia’s branches gained 15 pounds and was in the best shape of its life. I wonder if it’s on the same diet as Zac Veen. Sure, it’s always good to look […]

Jordan Westburg is dealing with a partially torn UCL. “Don’t worry,” a fantasy baseball ‘pert once said, “There’s a few mid-level 2nd basemen and 3rd basemen to draft.” Another fantasy baseball ‘pert said, “There’s no fretting but fretting itself,” he said misquoting FDR like he was a 1950’s Southern woman. Now, that guy who is […]

Happy New Year, everyone, and welcome to the first installment of the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2026. Over the next two weeks I will take two giant bites out of the countdown as I rank the players from 400-301 this week and then 300-201. After that will come bite sized looks of the final 200 players.
When it comes to these rankings, I know some of you will shake your head when it comes to certain players.
I have my biases and a system in how I evaluate fantasy players – and have done so for decades – and you have your biases. That is what makes rankings so interesting and why you will likely look at a host of rankings as a way to gauge how you view a certain player and how others view a certain player.
So here is a quick rundown about these rankings.

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.

Connelly Early (5 IP, 0 ER, 6 baserunners, 11 Ks) was called up by the Red Sox. He sounds like a character in The Banshees of Inisherin who you can’t understand a word they’re saying, so you put on subtitles but the subtitles are phonetic and also impossible to understand so you just nod along […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Before the season, I took my Brandon Woodruff expectations out behind the barn, administered them their Last Rites, then I put them down. Went inside and gathered Ma and Baby Jethro and told them there won’t be anymore Brandon Woodruff expectations around these parts anymore. Baby Jethro cried in my arms and Ma said, “Brandon […]

Chase Burns will be called up for Tuesday. Mr. Burns if you’re nasty or Smithers. Chase if you’re patio furniture or on the show Cops. CB if you’re a terrible ump with the last name Bucknor. Cha-Bu if you’re ordering something in a Korean restaurant and mispronouncing it. He is coming. The 2nd overall pick […]

Philadelphia Phillies is such a funny name. It’s like the California Calis or the New York Yorkies. How’d that get through 150 years of name changes to get to us? ACKSUALLY, I wonder if it’s because it’s such an old name it’s how it’s here. The name is from 1883, and back then people would […]
