Brice Turang - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

Nick Mariano's top 300 fantasy baseball rankings as of Week 9 (May 2025). His updated rest-of-season rankings and projections for hitters and pitchers.

Welcome back, RotoBallers! The fantasy baseball season doesn't sleep, so let's get to another edition of Nick Mariano's updated 2025 fantasy baseball rankings and tiers for roto leagues (5x5 mixed leagues) heading into Week 9.

Use these rest-of-season roto league rankings to identify risers and fallers from preseason rankings and identify potential buy and sell candidates moving forward.

This far into the season, you should start to notice trends, so make the necessary moves to turn things around or stay on track moving forward.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup tools and resources:

 

Top 300 Fantasy Baseball Rankings Updates

Playing fantasy baseball means navigating all sorts of injuries, with the latest batch seeing names like Cole Ragans (groin), Aaron Nola (ankle), Carlos Correa (concussion), Byron Buxton (concussion), Seth Lugo (finger), Reese Olson (finger), Tyler O'Neill (shoulder), Xavier Edwards (back), Porter Hodge (oblique), Kirby Yates (hamstring), Dylan Crews (oblique), Evan Carter (quad), and Justin Verlander (pec) go down. It's not all bad, though, as we got players back off the IL in Josh Lowe, Tyler Fitzgerald, Ezequiel Tovar, Tommy Edman, Teoscar Hernandez, Spencer Strider, Ian Happ, George Kirby, and Hunter Greene. And navigating bullpens these days is a full-time job.

We've seen promotions for names like Zebby Matthews and Matt Shaw, with others like Marcelo Mayer nearing his shot as he racks up reps at the keystone. Do you have a key prospect you're waiting on, or is a blend of veterans taking you to the top? We're building winners with all kinds of compositions!

Let our ranks help you get to the promised land. There are several avenues to success, and they all start by nailing the player takes correctly! Let's see where our early rest of-season rankings list players such as Taylor Ward, Riley Greene, Brice Turang, Corbin Burnes, Logan Henderson, and Jordan Romano.

 

Rest-Of-Season Fantasy Baseball Rankings (Week 9 Update)

These rankings will be updated every week throughout the season, so some of these situations are very fluid.
