The calendar has flipped over to 2025, and the new season is quickly approaching. Pitchers and catchers all report in around three weeks and we can finally start to smell baseball in the air once again. With the new season on the way, it's time for a new update to my Top 100 overall prospect […]

Top 10 Outfield Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

If the shortstop position isn't the most appealing for fantasy baseball purposes, the outfield would take that title. In my January 2025 dynasty rankings, 14 of the top 25 were outfield eligible, as this position has seen a consistent influx of exciting, young talent over the last several years. That's not going to change this […]


Jordan Lawlar - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Draft Sleepers, MLB Rookies

Top 10 Shortstop Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

The shortstop position abbreviation "SS" also stands for super sexy, which describes this position every year, both in the Majors and minors. Everyone wants to play shortstop, and the best athletes on the field at the youth level usually wind up there. Per usual, this position is loaded with high-upside fantasy baseball prospects, and the […]


Coby Mayo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Draft Sleepers, MLB Rookies

Top 10 Third Base Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

The hot corner has been synonymous with hot production over the years. Outside of a fall-off several years ago, this position has been one of the best for fantasy year in and year out, especially in the power department. I'm not expecting that to change any time soon either, with some of the names coming […]


Travis Bazzana - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Prospects, Draft Sleepers

Top 10 Second Base Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

For the most part, the second base position has been one of the weaker positions on the field offensively. After several seasons with this position on the rise, we saw second base fall off as a whole last season due to injuries and some of the aging top options at the position fall off. But […]


Jac Caglianone - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Top 10 First Base Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

The first base position has long been considered one of the best offensive positions for fantasy purposes. However, the position is starting to age with top options like Freddie Freeman and Bryce Harper who are now 35 and 32 respectively. Luckily, the top half of my top 10 below all projects to be impact fantasy […]


Samuel Basallo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Top 10 Catcher Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (2025)

When it comes to the positions on a baseball diamond, the catcher position usually gets the least amount of love. It's understandable as catchers usually don't put up big fantasy numbers and rarely play more than 140 games in a season. At the same time, the catcher position has been on the rise over the […]

Third Base Risers, Fallers, Buys, and Sells for Dynasty Fantasy Baseball

It's been an exciting few weeks in the baseball world with Juan Soto's signing, Kyle Tucker being traded, and various other notable moves, including a few that impact the third base position, which we'll be talking about today. As I've said several times before, there's never a bad time to make moves to improve your […]


Matt McLain - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Prospects

Second Base Risers, Fallers, Buys, and Sells for Dynasty Fantasy Baseball

It feels like the 2024 season ended six months ago, but we're still in the early stages of the offseason. We still have around four months to opening day, but the dynasty fantasy baseball world never sleeps. As I've said several times before, there's never a bad time to make moves to improve your team(s) […]


Triston Casas - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

First Base Risers, Fallers, Buys, and Sells for Dynasty Fantasy Baseball

While the offseason has just begun, it's never too early to look ahead and begin prepping for 2025. And for those of you in dynasty leagues, November can be just as important as July when it comes to roster construction and improving your teams for the long run. As I've said several times before, there's […]


Bobby Witt Jr. - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

Eric Cross' Top 100 Dynasty Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (October 2024)

Another fantasy baseball season has come and gone, but in dynasty, when one season ends the next one begins. Rankings don't reset, they simply continue on. We saw plenty of notable performances down the stretch in 2024, both good and bad which created plenty of movement in my final Top 500 dynasty rankings update of […]


Walker Jenkins - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Prospects

Eric Cross' Top 100 Dynasty Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (October 2024)

Well, the 2024 season is in the rearview mirror, and we are now turning our attention to 2025.

At this point in the year, […]


Logan O'Hoppe - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB News

Catcher Risers and Fallers for Dynasty Fantasy Baseball

It's hard to believe that the 2024 fantasy baseball season is in the rearview mirror and we now have to look ahead to 2025. Those who play dynasty leagues always have some eye on the future, but now 2025 is the sole focus. As I've said several times before, there's never a bad time to […]

Top Hitting Fantasy Baseball Prospects Who Should Debut Early in 2025

The 2024 season is winding down, but it's never too early to start thinking about and prepping for the 2025 season. Throughout the 2024 season, I wrote a weekly article on the Top 25 prospects to stash in redraft leagues. Hopefully, that article was useful to many of you who read it each week, helping […]

Top Pitching Fantasy Baseball Prospects Who Should Debut Early in 2025

We're down to the final week of the 2024 MLB regular season, so why not have some fun and look ahead to the 2025 season to see what top prospects could be up early in the season that we should be targeting or monitoring for fantasy purposes. This article is an extension of the weekly […]

Top 25 Fantasy Baseball Prospects To Stash (Week 24): Redraft Rankings

Welcome to the final Top 25 Prospects to Stash article of the season here on RotoBaller. It's been a fun season once again doing this article and I hope I've been able to assist your teams.

Junior Caminero - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Eric Cross' Top 100 Dynasty Prospect Rankings for Fantasy Baseball (August 2024)

While the minor league season is winding down, there is still plenty of action and movement in the prospect world. This is also going to be my last rankings update with Jackson Holliday included and probably Junior Caminero as well. Caminero will graduate in 37 more at-bats, and Holliday actually did on 8/30, a few […]


Jasson Dominguez - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Prospects, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

Top 25 Fantasy Baseball Prospects To Stash (Week 23): Redraft Rankings

With under 45 days left in the 2024 regular season, we're now in the period where MLB teams can call up prospects without burning a year of service time. This usually means we see some notable promotions over the final month, sometimes even a surprise name or two that we didn't expect. Could that surprise […]


Coby Mayo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Draft Sleepers, MLB Rookies

Top 25 Fantasy Baseball Prospects To Stash (Week 22): Redraft Rankings

It's hard to believe September is right around the corner and we're in the final quarter of the 2024 Major League season. We've seen plenty of notable promotions over the last couple of weeks including Trey Sweeney, Jace Jung, Jasson Dominguez, Junior Caminero, Zebby Matthews, and others. With those names off the list, the top […]


Junior Caminero - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Prospects

Top 25 Fantasy Baseball Prospects To Stash (Week 21): Redraft Rankings

After a quiet last week or two on the prospect front following Coby Mayo's debut, we get two major promotions this week with Junior Caminero being recalled and Zebby Matthews making his MLB debut. Both had ranked highly in my stash rankings for a while now and it will be exciting to see what sort […]
