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!

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.

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.

“I told you Brandon Pfaadt was a sleeper!” That was when the mob formed outside Grey’s house. Many stamped pitchforks into the ground, a few carried crates of overly ripe tomatoes. The mob’s leader, Razzball Commenter #1, addressed the crowd, “We shouldn’t bother with the tomatoes or pitchforks. It’s too much work. Instead, I’ve printed […]

Mariners play in an awful stadium. Catchers don’t hit for power–[suddenly something blocks the sun] Is that an eclipse? My “Is There An Eclipse Happening Right Now Or Am I Standing In A Shadow” app says there’s no eclipse but I’m also on a treeless street. Nowhere a house. There’s no shadows here! What on […]

A walloper of a trade deadline day! The biggest winners, losers and–Hold on, getting an iCal reminder. Oh crap, I was supposed to remind the Dodgers that the trade deadline was yesterday. Crap! Okay, will you guys pretend it’s actually today and not yesterday? Seriously, I’m gonna be in big trouble! I really don’t understand […]
