Fellow RotoBallers.We are getting closer. Fantasy baseball drafts have already been taking place, and will be heating up over the next few weeks. Spring training already roaring, and the MLB season is near. With that comes the excitement of fantasy baseball drafts, and we are here to help you dominate them.
Today we are bringing you our top 400 dynasty rankings for the 2016 fantasy baseball season. When adjusting rankings for dynasty leagues, we factor in the long-term outlook and fantasy potential of each player. This can result in younger players being ranked higher than they would be in standard leagues, even if they are unproven fantasy commodities. Although we always play to win this year, we constantly need to build for the future in dynasty formats. The below rankings we will give you our take on the expected fantasy production over the next few years.
Some of our lead fantasy baseball columnists, including have contributed to these rankings, which can also be found in our fantasy baseball rankings assistant. We recently launched this handy new rankings tool - you can easily filter, sort, and export all sorts of rankings for mixed leagues, AL/NL only, top prospects, dynasty formats, keeper values and more! It's all in one place, and all free.
