We’re less than a week away from the first pitch of the MLB season, with the Dodgers and Padres set to kick things off in Tokyo. Spring training battles are wrapping up, lineups are taking shape, and fantasy managers are making their final tweaks before the grind begins. As we continue our journey through the top 100 fantasy hitters, we’ve reached the top 80—a mix of rising stars, steady veterans, and a few question marks that could make or break a season. Some players are surging up draft boards with their spring performances, while others have red flags waving like a third-base coach on a two-out double. With the countdown to real baseball nearly over, let’s dive into the second-to-last segment in our series breaking down the Top 100 Hitters for the 2025 season as we get closer to Opening Day.

Prospect News: Bold Predictions For 2025
March 16, 2025 | 2025 Fantasy Baseball | 34 Commentsby: The Itch
I’m not sure what qualifies as bold anymore, but I know I want to write things that help readers find value in their leagues. Here’s a link to my bold predictions from last year in which I say Elly De La Cruz will have a 30/50 season. It’s easy enough to say this now, but at that time, much of the fantasy world was in doubt, including Razzball’s fearless leader, as he mentions in his recent Draft Champions Draft Recap: I Choo-Choo Cruz You. I have to lean into the Elly call because a lot of those predictions were not good. I thought Anthony Rendon would watch “The Fan” and start hitting somehow, for instance. Gonna try and do a little better this year.

Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025: 175-151
January 15, 2025 | Fantasy Baseball Keepers | 7 Commentsby: Jakkers
Welcome back, friends, to another week of the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025. The countdown to No. 1 continues as this week I look at the players ranked between 175 to 151. You will see that this grouping of players falls mostly into one age bracket while the positions vary.
The fact that many of the players are in the same age range is not surprising. A lot of the older players were previously ranked and many of the younger players are ranked higher. This group is a collection of players who are mostly proven commodities. Some still have room to improve, some are a question mark, but many are the players who are ranked below are the reason you win titles – they aren’t superstars, but they will provide solid stats that lead to titles.
Let’s provide a quick breakdown of the 25 players in the rankings this week before diving into the rankings…
Please, blog, may I have some more? Top 40 Dynasty Keepers for 2025 – Catchers
October 23, 2024 | Fantasy Baseball Keepers | 9 Commentsby: Jakkers
We are three weeks into the Dynasty Keepers for 2025 and today we turn our attention to catchers. This is a position that is mind-numbingly weak as there is not a lot of quality depth.
Few catchers will help you across the board. You may get a catcher who has power but kills your average and on-base percentage. Or you may get a catcher who hits well and gets on base but has no power at all. The average major league hitter this season posted a slash line of .240/.309/.394. Of the 53 catchers I looked at, their average slash line was .238/.300/.381. Basically, this is a position that is below the average player across the board.
Only six catchers hit 20 or more homers and only one reached 30. Only three catchers drove in more than 90 runs. The ones who can do it all are worth their weight in gold as they will give you a huge advantage at that position against opponents if you are lucky enough to land one of these unicorns.
Anyway, let’s get to the rankings.
