Tampa Bay Rays Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Tampa Bay Rays have been stuck in the same place for each of the past two seasons. They have picked 13th overall in both years and have been unable to make any real progress in moving out of the AL East cellar. They have a very solid young core of players with guys like... Read More

New York Yankees Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Yankees must love every part of their transactions involving Aroldis Chapman over the past year. They picked him up for practically nothing from the Reds, giving up only Rookie Davis, Caleb Cotham, Eric Jagielo and Tony Renda (of which, only Rookie Davis has a case to be a Top 10 prospect for the Reds). They... Read More

Boston Red Sox Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Red Sox system took a bit of a hit over the Winter Meetings as they dealt away top prospects Yoan Moncada and Michael Kopech as well as solid outfield prospect Luis Alexander Basabe and to the White Sox in exchange for Chris Sale (you can read about that trade here). But even with the deal,... Read More

Dynasty Implications - MLB Prospects in the Adam Eaton Trade

Wow, the Chicago White Sox are completely blowing up their Major League roster. Yesterday it was Chris Sale for Yoan Moncada, Michael Kopech, Luis Alexander Basabe and Victor Diaz, today it's Adam Eaton for Lucas Giolito, Reynaldo Lopez and Dane Dunning. Two days ago, Rick Hahn had one of the weakest farm systems in baseball... Read More

Dynasty Implications - MLB Prospects in the Chris Sale Trade

The Boston Red Sox management woke up on Tuesday and decided that they didn't like the Winter Meetings to be all talk and no show. So they decided to make some noise and add starting pitcher Chris Sale from the White Sox and reliever Tyler Thornburg from the Brewers. This deal obviously has some immediate... Read More

Devil’s Rejects 20-Team Dynasty League Trade Retrospective

At the beginning of the year, my friend and mentor, Brad Johnson, invited me to join his dynasty league “The Devil’s Rejects.” The owner of the West Reading Phillies had left the league, leaving a team without an owner. Without more than a moment’s hesitation, I leaped at the opportunity to join. And in case... Read More

Reviewing Edward Sutelan's Bold Predictions for 2016

Before this season, I made a couple of bold predictions about the upcoming season. There were some hits . . . and then there were some misses. Overall, I feel that people who read my article seeking fantasy advice were probably not too let down by my predictions (unless you bought into A.J. Reed). I look... Read More

One of the last three dynasty rankings articles in the regular season, this article will be focusing on starting pitchers from the National League.

Late Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: National League Starting Pitchers 11-20

One of the last three dynasty rankings articles in the regular season, this article will be focusing on starting pitchers from the National League.

Giovani Bernard vs. Danny Woodhead - 2016 Fantasy Football ADP Analysis

At this point, fantasy drafts should just be just about wrapping up.

Late Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: American League Starting Pitchers

Before you start raising riots and asking for certain guys, I want to go ahead and throw out the two names that would be one and two on this list had innings limits not prevented them from being here. Blake Snell no longer qualifies as a rookie and Jose Berrios has pitched exclusively as a... Read More

Week 21 Rookie Roundup: Recently Promoted Prospects

I want to preface this article by saying that there are literally only two players I advise owning in any format on this list. Sure, some of these guys may be intriguing, but there are two standout players and there are others who are on there just because I have spots to fill. But if... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 21)

What a week for prospects! Dansby Swanson was promoted by Atlanta, Yulieski Gurriel was promoted by Houston and Alex Bregman is starting to look like a stud again. Obviously there are going to be some owners scared of Gurriel just because every Houston Astros’ prospect promoted this season has struggled early, but the recent hot... Read More

Week 20 Rookie Roundup: Recently Promoted Prospects

Take a look at some of those Astros’ prospects starting to produce. A.J. Reed has hit three dingers already and Alex Bregman followed up his first career bomb with another one the following day. Sure Joe Musgrove got roughed up a bit, but a) It came against Baltimore and b) He has been stellar to... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 20)

Geez, Mookie Betts. That guy is too good. In general, just how about that Boston Red Sox outfield? They’ve got Betts in right field who can do everything imaginable. They’ve got Jackie Bradley Jr. in the midst of a breakout season, who can also do everything. And they also have Andrew Benintendi who has yet... Read More

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: All Outfielders

Since I split up the two leagues, I thought that it would work out well to merge the two and briefly discuss the top-20 overall so dynasty owners know where everyone fits in. The descriptions for each player are not going to be particularly long and if you want a full scouting report, you can... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 19)

Talk about some serious promotions lately. Andrew Benintendi! Orlando Arcia! And that is just naming two of them. Unfortunately, it is unlikely we shall see another week like that again. At least, not until September. There aren't any real clear promotions on the horizon except for a few names. With that said, it is still important... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 18)

Wow what a bunch of big time promotions. Alex Bregman, David Dahl, Tyler Glasnow (and then to the DL). Talk about some star power! But the big headlines obviously are going to circle around the Indians who acquired ace reliever Andrew Miller, but failed to complete a deal for Jonathan Lucroy after he used his no-trade... Read More

Week 17 Rookie Roundup: Recently Promoted Prospects

What an unbelievable week for prospect promotions. Alex Bregman, Lucas Giolito, Joey Gallo, David Dahl, Tyler Glasnow! The real question is really, who wasn’t promoted this week? And the crazy thing is that next week could have even more top prospects reach the majors, as big league rosters continue to be shaken up as a result of... Read More

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: American League Outfielders

The second of two dynasty rankings for the outfield position, this list covers only American League outfielders.

Now don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of great outfielders on both sides and so many... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 17)

Talk about some serious prospects reaching the majors. In one week, Tyler Glasnow, Lucas Giolito and Alex Bregman (finally) were all promoted to the big leagues. Of course, Glasnow made one start and promptly found himself on the 15-day DL, but still it is incredible to see so many top guys promoted. Everyone knew Bregman... Read More

Week 16 Rookie Roundup: Recently Promoted Prospects

So there have not been a lot of major promotions made this past week, but the next week and a half should see some serious roster shake-ups. With the trade deadline looming ahead, it seems that it is only a matter of time until some top prospects find their way into starting roles. One guy... Read More

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 16)

Who would have guessed that the first person promoted from the promising 2015 draft would have been Carson Fulmer? I mean no offense to Fulmer, but he had a 4.76 ERA, 4.16 FIP, 9.31 K/9, 5.28 BB/9 and 0.72 HR/9 in Double-A. Those numbers are certainly not terrible, but I don’t know if they are... Read More

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: National League Outfielders

Before we dive too much into the outfield prospect rankings, I just want to give up a quick heads up to the readers on how the remaining prospect rankings lists will go.

Week 15 Rookie Roundup: Recently Promoted Prospects

I hope everyone had a great All-Star Break because I certainly did. First watching Alex Bregman tear it up at the Futures Game, then witnessing Giancarlo Stanton blast several miles worth of bombs in the Home Run Derby and finally watching the All-Star Game on Tuesday. It was quite a memorable All-Star Break and some... Read More
