Hello, everyone. Welcome back to my weekly rankings. This week is the Top 50 Dynasty Shortstops for 2026.

When it comes to this position, it is full of young players with great upside or have already reached a high level of play while also featuring older players who can still be great players to have on your team.

Overall, if you need to boost your average or your on-base percentage, this is a group to hoard. Collectively, shortstops slashed .254/.317/.394, ranking first, second and fourth among all positions in those categories. The top end players will help you across the board. As you get beyond those players, you will still find shortstops who will help in at least one category, such has homers or steals or whatever you are looking for.

But we might want to take a second look to see if there is still value to be had.

Once a generation a pitcher comes along that is extraordinary. Extra plus ordinary. It’s not often we get to witness it with our own eyes. Previous generations, some of those pitchers were Max Scherzer, Pedro Martinez, Roger Clemens, Nolan Ryan, then before I was born, so I don’t know. Too old for me! I’m a […]
