As is an All-Star break tradition, here's a look at where I think things currently stand for next season. I planned on a top 400, but I still wound up with too many names I wanted to squeeze in, so 450 is what you're getting. This is supposed to be a fun exercise, so please don't be too upset if you think I have No. 259 ranked 100 spots too high or too low.
Rankings are for 5x5 leagues and are for 2027 only. Also listed is each player's ranking in the 2026 preseason top 300 and the most recent top 300 update from July 6. I've tried to update positions with my best guess at 2027 eligibility, so there's no more Ben Rice at catcher or Luis García Jr. at second base. Players listed without teams will be free agents at season's end, and players whose teams have asterisks are on options that may or may not be exercised. I don't bother with the asterisks for players whose options are obviously getting picked up, like Ronald Acuña Jr. and Andrés Muñoz.

2027 Fantasy Baseball Top 450 overall ranks
For notes here, I'm just going to go position by position, listing the top players at each spot.
Catcher
65 - Iván Herrera - Cardinals
67 - Drake Baldwin - Braves
77 - Shea Langeliers - Athletics
105 - Cal Raleigh - Mariners
117 - William Contreras - Brewers
124 - Hunter Goodman - Rockies
129 - Samuel Basallo - Orioles
205 - Gabriel Moreno - Diamondbacks
212 - Dillon Dingler - Tigers
278 - Adley Rutschman - Orioles
307 - Agustín Ramírez - Marlins
330 - Carter Jensen - Royals
- Basallo is the big mover here, joining the second tier of catchers after hitting 16 homers in the first half of the season. I imagine most would argue that Goodman belongs in the first tier at this point, but his strikeout rate is all of the way up to 32 percent this year, and I'm still a little skeptical of him going forward.
- Ramírez is obviously a big wild card. He's not exactly tearing it up in hitting .250/.328/.436 in Triple-A, and he has no future behind the plate in Miami with Joe Mack establishing himself and Liam Hicks sure to stick around. Still, he's the one guy here with 20/20 ability, and he'll most likely have catcher eligibility next year.
- Will Smith was next on the list after Jensen, but with Dalton Rushing nipping at his heels and no DH time available in Los Angeles, I'm somewhat concerned about what's in store for him.
First base
6 - Nick Kurtz - Athletics
13 - Vladimir Guerrero Jr. - Blue Jays
22 - Pete Alonso - Orioles
31 - Bryce Harper - Phillies
40 - Matt Olson - Braves
45 - Freddie Freeman - Dodgers
58 - Ben Rice - Yankees
80 - Alec Burleson - Cardinals
99 - Rafael Devers - Giants
100 - Munetaka Murakami - White Sox
104 - Josh Naylor - Mariners
107 - Yandy Diaz - Rays
108 - Willson Contreras - Red Sox
- Probably no big surprises here. Rice belongs higher based on this year's results, but I don't like how his bat speed has decreased and his strikeout rate has increased this season. I'm still not sure exactly how to value Murakami. He obviously has 40-homer power, but even his current .232 average might be difficult for him to maintain, and his lack of singles and doubles will take a toll on his RBI totals.
- Cleveland's Ralphy Velasquez, who at age 21 has hit .293/.386/.490 between Double- and Triple-A this year, is the high first base prospect at No. 288. He lacks big-time power, and Progressive Field won't help there, but it shouldn't be long before he overtakes Kyle Manzardo and CJ Kayfus in Cleveland's plans and it's not like the team figures to invest at first base/DH in free agency.
Second base
16 - Fernando Tatis Jr. - Padres
32 - Brice Turang - Brewers
35 - Ketel Marte - Diamondbacks
48 - JJ Wetherholt - Cardinals
62 - Jazz Chisholm Jr. - FA
84 - Xavier Edwards - Marlins
119 - Luke Keaschall - Twins
122 - Nico Hoerner - Cubs
126 - Travis Bazzana - Guardians
141 - Tommy Edman - Dodgers
144 - Jackson Holliday - Orioles
157 - Jose Altuve - Astros
161 - Sam Antonacci - White Sox
- Chisholm's free agency is going to be pretty fascinating. The Cubs and Hoerner set the market with a surprisingly lucrative six-year, $141 million extension in March that'll cover his age 30-35 seasons. Chisholm will enter free agency at 29. If he matched his 2025 production this season, he might have beaten Hoerner's deal. As is, he's hitting just .223/.303/.395 to date, and Statcast thinks he's actually been a little lucky, giving him a .207 xBA and a .361 xSLG. At this point, it doesn't seem very likely that he'll be back with the Yankees. However, if he does land with a worst offensive team, at least he'll most likely hit higher than fifth and sixth, which is what he's been doing in New York.
- Pedro Ramírez comes in at No. 315, but he'd be considerably higher on a team with a clear opening for him. That's not currently the Cubs, but maybe he'll wind up in the outfield with Seiya Suzuki and Ian Happ entering free agency. I suspect his bat will play better than Matt Shaw's will, even if Shaw is clearly ahead of him in line right now.
Third base
5 - Junior Caminero - Rays
19 - Jose Ramirez - Guardians
30 - Sal Stewart - Reds
85 - Austin Riley - Braves
89 - Manny Machado - Padres
94 - Miguel Vargas - White Sox
112 - Maikel Garcia - Royals
162 - Alex Bregman - Cubs
165 - Isaac Paredes - Astros
167 - Jordan Westburg - Orioles
173 - Alec Bohm - FA
175 - Kazuma Okamoto - Blue Jays
- It's difficult to get excited about anyone beyond the top three here. Vargas's breakout seems pretty legitimate, though because he's still having his usual BABIP issues (.243 this season, .236 career), it's led to just a .245 average. Okamoto has easily been a top-10 third baseman this year, but he's already struck out 118 times. He's batting .239 at the moment, and Statcast gives him a .219 xBA.
- Kyle Karros has been a fast riser in recent weeks, and he's 14th at the position at No. 215 and climbing. There should be more help on the way, too. The Athletics' Joshua Kuroda-Grauer might be the player that Jacob Wilson resembled in the first half of last year. The White Sox are going to have a Caleb Bonemer problem early next year, and it's going to be fascinating to see how the Brewers incorporate Jesús Made, Jett Williams and Andrew Fischer into their lineup after already making a big bet on Cooper Pratt at shortstop.
Shortstop
1 - Bobby Witt Jr. - Royals
10 - Elly De La Cruz - Reds
18 - Gunnar Henderson - Orioles
25 - CJ Abrams - Nationals
27 - Zach Neto - Angels
37 - Francisco Lindor - Mets
41 - Trea Turner - Phillies
61 - Jeremy Peña - Astros
64 - Kevin McGonigle - Tigers
81 - Bo Bichette - Mets*
87 - Konnor Griffin - Pirates
95 - Corey Seager - Rangers
96 - Mookie Betts - Dodgers
131 - Geraldo Perdomo - Diamondbacks
- Witt seems like the safest pick as the No. 1 overall player for next year. That the Royals pulled in the fences at Kauffman Stadium to create more homers has yet to work to his advantage, but it still should in the long run; Statcast gives Kaufmann a 111 home run park factor for right-handed hitters this year, compared to 91 for 2023-25. Witt has 35 barrels this season and the best hard-hit rate of his career. The offense around him can't possibly be this bad again next year.
- Griffin should win out in 2028 and beyond, but for 2027, McGonigle is probably the better bet at shortstop. His 56/60 K/BB at age 21 is incredibly impressive, and while his bat speed is below average right now, he's probably going to add to it in the next couple of years. He might never hit 30 homers or steal 30 bases, but he'll help everywhere.
- Minnesota's Kaelen Culpepper is the high prospect here at No. 240, in large part because he's the best bet of the prospects to start on Opening Day. Following him are the Athletics' Leo De Vries at No. 260, Made at No. 299, George Lombard Jr. at No. 346 and Franklin Arias at No. 353. De Vries probably has the most upside for 2027; he's stolen 31 bases in 36 tries in Double-A this year, and the A's play in a fantastic park for hitters.
Outfield
2 - Aaron Judge - Yankees
4 - James Wood - Nationals
7 - Yordan Alvarez - Astros
8 - Juan Soto - Mets
9 - Ronald Acuña Jr. - Braves
11 - Julio Rodríguez - Mariners
15 - Jackson Chourio - Brewers
20 - Corbin Carroll - Diamondbacks
21 - Kyle Tucker - Dodgers
24 - Pete Crow-Armstrong - Cubs
34 - Michael Harris II - Braves
36 - Oneil Cruz - Pirates
42 - Jordan Walker - Cardinals
51 - Roman Anthony - Red Sox
53 - Cody Bellinger - Yankees
55 - Riley Greene - Tigers
68 - Tyler Soderstrom - Athletics
71 - Andy Pages - Dodgers
73 - Wyatt Langford - Rangers
75 - Jarren Duran - Red Sox
76 - Dylan Crews - Nationals
82 - Mike Trout - Angels
83 - Seiya Suzuki - FA
92 - Byron Buxton - Twins
98 - Jackson Merrill - Padres
102 - Bryan Reynolds - Pirates
103 - Kyle Stowers - Marlins
115 - Daylen Lile - Nationals
120 - Luis Robert Jr. - Mets*
125 - Brandon Nimmo - Rangers
134 - Carson Benge - Mets
135 - Jo Adell - Angels
137 - Jac Caglianone - Royals
140 - Randy Arozarena - FA
147 - Charlie Condon - Rockies
148 - Cam Smith - Astros
- I initially had Anthony a fair amount lower after two seasons interrupted by injuries sustained while swinging the bat... that definitely has me a little nervous. But he's just so incredibly talented, and I just don't care much about his performance in the 30 games before he was hurt this season. For what it's worth, Statcast gave him a .262 xBA and a .410 xSLG that are much better than his actual marks of .229 and .321.
- It hasn't shown up in the numbers, but Crews has lowered his strikeout rate and improved his exit velocity numbers a bit since returning from exile. He's another guy that Statcast believes deserves much better; he has a .343 slugging but a .433 xSLG. He's not showing superstar potential, but he can be a top-20 fantasy outfielder without playing like an All-Star.
- With Coors Field factoring in, Condon is the high prospect among outfielders and position players overall. Next up on the outfield list are the Cardinals' Joshua Báez at No. 202, the Dodgers' Josue De Paula at No. 207 and the Reds' Héctor Rodriguez at No. 267. Rodriguez isn't as strong of a prospect as some other guys, including Walker Jenkins and Max Clark below him, but he has 23 homers in Triple-A this year and the Reds seem poised to have outfield openings.
- The Rockies have seven outfielders list here. I'm assuming they'll trade at least one of Mickey Moniak and Jake McCarthy before the deadline, which is why they're lower than they'd otherwise be. I think they really ought to trade both to make room for Condon and free up an opportunity for Sterlin Thompson or Zac Veen. Thompson has never posted great EV numbers, but he has excellent bat speed and an impressive 38/42 K/BB in 234 plate appearances in Triple-A. Veen has always been far more interesting as a fantasy prospect than as an actual one, but he's been decent in Triple-A with a 40 percent hard-hit rate that's helped lead to a .311/.385/.578 line in a hitter friendly environment. It's also too soon to write off Jordan Beck, and 2024 second-rounder Jared Thomas could be a factor before the end of next year.

158 - Tyler Glasnow - Dodgers
159 - Shane McClanahan - Rays
163 - Nathan Eovaldi - Rangers
164 - Corbin Burnes - Diamondbacks*
166 - Spencer Schwellenbach - Braves
- I don't think there's anything too controversial at the top here. Misiorowski might get the top spot next spring if he avoids injury in the second half, but Skubal still seems like the safer choice right now.
- Kade Anderson is the high prospect, with future Mariners teammate Ryan Sloan second on the list at No. 179. Both would be higher if the other didn't exist, since the Mariners probably won't have room for more than one at the start of next year. Even opening just one spot in Seattle's rotation means two from the current group would have to vanish. Luis Castillo is the obvious first option to go, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the Mariners trade Kirby or Miller. That's part of why those two are lower in the rankings than I would typically have them.
- Like the Mariners, the Dodgers have eight starting pitchers listed here. That makes me wonder if I'm being too aggressive in putting River Ryan at No. 150, but I truly love his potential if he can stay healthy. I'm not very optimistic about either Roki Sasaki (No. 298) or Emmet Sheehan (No. 347) at this point, but in such a great situation for pitchers, I couldn't entirely ignore either. Sheehan, in particular, probably belongs in the bullpen because of his inability to maintain his velocity into the middle innings of games.
- Atlanta's situation is going to be interesting if everyone shows up healthy next spring. Sale, Schwellenbach and Spencer Strider would seemingly be guaranteed spots. Veterans Reynaldo López, Bryce Elder and Grant Holmes will all be due back, with youngsters JR Ritchie, AJ Smith-Shawver, Owen Murphy and Hurston Waldrep fighting them for spots. Realistically, though, they'd probably want to add a legitimate No. 2 or 3 to that mix. I did include Ritchie at the bottom of the list, but Smith-Shawver and Murphy were left off because it's such a big crowd.
Relief pitching
39 - Mason Miller - Padres
49 - Jhoan Duran - Phillies
56 - Cade Smith - Guardians
59 - Josh Hader - Astros
70 - Aroldis Chapman - Red Sox*
79 - Andrés Muñoz - Mariners
97 - Louis Varland - Blue Jays
106 - Devin Williams - Mets
109 - David Bednar - FA
114 - Edwin Díaz - Dodgers
130 - Félix Bautista - Orioles
133 - Raisel Iglesias - FA
160 - Trevor Megill - Brewers
170 - Daniel Palencia - Cubs
191 - Robert Suarez - Braves
201 - Ryan Helsley - Orioles*
206 - Grant Taylor - White Sox
211 - Jacob Latz - Rangers
- There still aren't a ton of sure things here, and one imagines there will be a whole lot of movement this winter. Jason Adam, Adrian Morejon, Bryan Abreu, Evan Phillips, Alex Vesia and A.J. Puk are among the free agent setup men who could get signed to close. The Brewers might choose to part with either Megill or Abner Uribe in trade. The Giants' Randy Rodríguez, the D-backs' Justin Martínez and the Marlins' Ronny Henriquez could all return from arm surgeries to reemerge as closer candidates. Just a lot of fun possibilities.
- It'd also be a mistake to rule out the Guardians trading Smith in the offseason, though it's probably more likely to happen at next year's deadline or after 2027. He'll only be eligible for arbitration for the first time, so he won't be terribly expensive yet. Still, he'd net quite a haul, and the Guardians might figure they could do without him. With that in mind, I almost included Daniel Espino on the list. It's still very difficult to expect him to stay healthy, but he's touching 100 mph, and since he'll be out of options, he'll have to stick in the Cleveland pen next year.
- Taylor might be a top-100 guy on draft day if he finishes out this year as the White Sox's closer. I'd rather see him get another look as a starter, though. He'd probably rank around No. 250 if that happens.

For notes here, I'm just going to go position by position, listing the top players at each spot.
Catcher
65 - Iván Herrera - Cardinals
67 - Drake Baldwin - Braves
77 - Shea Langeliers - Athletics
105 - Cal Raleigh - Mariners
117 - William Contreras - Brewers
124 - Hunter Goodman - Rockies
129 - Samuel Basallo - Orioles
205 - Gabriel Moreno - Diamondbacks
212 - Dillon Dingler - Tigers
278 - Adley Rutschman - Orioles
307 - Agustín Ramírez - Marlins
330 - Carter Jensen - Royals
- Basallo is the big mover here, joining the second tier of catchers after hitting 16 homers in the first half of the season. I imagine most would argue that Goodman belongs in the first tier at this point, but his strikeout rate is all of the way up to 32 percent this year, and I'm still a little skeptical of him going forward.
- Ramírez is obviously a big wild card. He's not exactly tearing it up in hitting .250/.328/.436 in Triple-A, and he has no future behind the plate in Miami with Joe Mack establishing himself and Liam Hicks sure to stick around. Still, he's the one guy here with 20/20 ability, and he'll most likely have catcher eligibility next year.
- Will Smith was next on the list after Jensen, but with Dalton Rushing nipping at his heels and no DH time available in Los Angeles, I'm somewhat concerned about what's in store for him.
First base
6 - Nick Kurtz - Athletics
13 - Vladimir Guerrero Jr. - Blue Jays
22 - Pete Alonso - Orioles
31 - Bryce Harper - Phillies
40 - Matt Olson - Braves
45 - Freddie Freeman - Dodgers
58 - Ben Rice - Yankees
80 - Alec Burleson - Cardinals
99 - Rafael Devers - Giants
100 - Munetaka Murakami - White Sox
104 - Josh Naylor - Mariners
107 - Yandy Diaz - Rays
108 - Willson Contreras - Red Sox
- Probably no big surprises here. Rice belongs higher based on this year's results, but I don't like how his bat speed has decreased and his strikeout rate has increased this season. I'm still not sure exactly how to value Murakami. He obviously has 40-homer power, but even his current .232 average might be difficult for him to maintain, and his lack of singles and doubles will take a toll on his RBI totals.
- Cleveland's Ralphy Velasquez, who at age 21 has hit .293/.386/.490 between Double- and Triple-A this year, is the high first base prospect at No. 288. He lacks big-time power, and Progressive Field won't help there, but it shouldn't be long before he overtakes Kyle Manzardo and CJ Kayfus in Cleveland's plans and it's not like the team figures to invest at first base/DH in free agency.
Second base
16 - Fernando Tatis Jr. - Padres
32 - Brice Turang - Brewers
35 - Ketel Marte - Diamondbacks
48 - JJ Wetherholt - Cardinals
62 - Jazz Chisholm Jr. - FA
84 - Xavier Edwards - Marlins
119 - Luke Keaschall - Twins
122 - Nico Hoerner - Cubs
126 - Travis Bazzana - Guardians
141 - Tommy Edman - Dodgers
144 - Jackson Holliday - Orioles
157 - Jose Altuve - Astros
161 - Sam Antonacci - White Sox
- Chisholm's free agency is going to be pretty fascinating. The Cubs and Hoerner set the market with a surprisingly lucrative six-year, $141 million extension in March that'll cover his age 30-35 seasons. Chisholm will enter free agency at 29. If he matched his 2025 production this season, he might have beaten Hoerner's deal. As is, he's hitting just .223/.303/.395 to date, and Statcast thinks he's actually been a little lucky, giving him a .207 xBA and a .361 xSLG. At this point, it doesn't seem very likely that he'll be back with the Yankees. However, if he does land with a worst offensive team, at least he'll most likely hit higher than fifth and sixth, which is what he's been doing in New York.
- Pedro Ramírez comes in at No. 315, but he'd be considerably higher on a team with a clear opening for him. That's not currently the Cubs, but maybe he'll wind up in the outfield with Seiya Suzuki and Ian Happ entering free agency. I suspect his bat will play better than Matt Shaw's will, even if Shaw is clearly ahead of him in line right now.
Third base
5 - Junior Caminero - Rays
19 - Jose Ramirez - Guardians
30 - Sal Stewart - Reds
85 - Austin Riley - Braves
89 - Manny Machado - Padres
94 - Miguel Vargas - White Sox
112 - Maikel Garcia - Royals
162 - Alex Bregman - Cubs
165 - Isaac Paredes - Astros
167 - Jordan Westburg - Orioles
173 - Alec Bohm - FA
175 - Kazuma Okamoto - Blue Jays
- It's difficult to get excited about anyone beyond the top three here. Vargas's breakout seems pretty legitimate, though because he's still having his usual BABIP issues (.243 this season, .236 career), it's led to just a .245 average. Okamoto has easily been a top-10 third baseman this year, but he's already struck out 118 times. He's batting .239 at the moment, and Statcast gives him a .219 xBA.
- Kyle Karros has been a fast riser in recent weeks, and he's 14th at the position at No. 215 and climbing. There should be more help on the way, too. The Athletics' Joshua Kuroda-Grauer might be the player that Jacob Wilson resembled in the first half of last year. The White Sox are going to have a Caleb Bonemer problem early next year, and it's going to be fascinating to see how the Brewers incorporate Jesús Made, Jett Williams and Andrew Fischer into their lineup after already making a big bet on Cooper Pratt at shortstop.
Shortstop
1 - Bobby Witt Jr. - Royals
10 - Elly De La Cruz - Reds
18 - Gunnar Henderson - Orioles
25 - CJ Abrams - Nationals
27 - Zach Neto - Angels
37 - Francisco Lindor - Mets
41 - Trea Turner - Phillies
61 - Jeremy Peña - Astros
64 - Kevin McGonigle - Tigers
81 - Bo Bichette - Mets*
87 - Konnor Griffin - Pirates
95 - Corey Seager - Rangers
96 - Mookie Betts - Dodgers
131 - Geraldo Perdomo - Diamondbacks
- Witt seems like the safest pick as the No. 1 overall player for next year. That the Royals pulled in the fences at Kauffman Stadium to create more homers has yet to work to his advantage, but it still should in the long run; Statcast gives Kaufmann a 111 home run park factor for right-handed hitters this year, compared to 91 for 2023-25. Witt has 35 barrels this season and the best hard-hit rate of his career. The offense around him can't possibly be this bad again next year.
- Griffin should win out in 2028 and beyond, but for 2027, McGonigle is probably the better bet at shortstop. His 56/60 K/BB at age 21 is incredibly impressive, and while his bat speed is below average right now, he's probably going to add to it in the next couple of years. He might never hit 30 homers or steal 30 bases, but he'll help everywhere.
- Minnesota's Kaelen Culpepper is the high prospect here at No. 240, in large part because he's the best bet of the prospects to start on Opening Day. Following him are the Athletics' Leo De Vries at No. 260, Made at No. 299, George Lombard Jr. at No. 346 and Franklin Arias at No. 353. De Vries probably has the most upside for 2027; he's stolen 31 bases in 36 tries in Double-A this year, and the A's play in a fantastic park for hitters.
Outfield
2 - Aaron Judge - Yankees
4 - James Wood - Nationals
7 - Yordan Alvarez - Astros
8 - Juan Soto - Mets
9 - Ronald Acuña Jr. - Braves
11 - Julio Rodríguez - Mariners
15 - Jackson Chourio - Brewers
20 - Corbin Carroll - Diamondbacks
21 - Kyle Tucker - Dodgers
24 - Pete Crow-Armstrong - Cubs
34 - Michael Harris II - Braves
36 - Oneil Cruz - Pirates
42 - Jordan Walker - Cardinals
51 - Roman Anthony - Red Sox
53 - Cody Bellinger - Yankees
55 - Riley Greene - Tigers
68 - Tyler Soderstrom - Athletics
71 - Andy Pages - Dodgers
73 - Wyatt Langford - Rangers
75 - Jarren Duran - Red Sox
76 - Dylan Crews - Nationals
82 - Mike Trout - Angels
83 - Seiya Suzuki - FA
92 - Byron Buxton - Twins
98 - Jackson Merrill - Padres
102 - Bryan Reynolds - Pirates
103 - Kyle Stowers - Marlins
115 - Daylen Lile - Nationals
120 - Luis Robert Jr. - Mets*
125 - Brandon Nimmo - Rangers
134 - Carson Benge - Mets
135 - Jo Adell - Angels
137 - Jac Caglianone - Royals
140 - Randy Arozarena - FA
147 - Charlie Condon - Rockies
148 - Cam Smith - Astros
- I initially had Anthony a fair amount lower after two seasons interrupted by injuries sustained while swinging the bat... that definitely has me a little nervous. But he's just so incredibly talented, and I just don't care much about his performance in the 30 games before he was hurt this season. For what it's worth, Statcast gave him a .262 xBA and a .410 xSLG that are much better than his actual marks of .229 and .321.
- It hasn't shown up in the numbers, but Crews has lowered his strikeout rate and improved his exit velocity numbers a bit since returning from exile. He's another guy that Statcast believes deserves much better; he has a .343 slugging but a .433 xSLG. He's not showing superstar potential, but he can be a top-20 fantasy outfielder without playing like an All-Star.
- With Coors Field factoring in, Condon is the high prospect among outfielders and position players overall. Next up on the outfield list are the Cardinals' Joshua Báez at No. 202, the Dodgers' Josue De Paula at No. 207 and the Reds' Héctor Rodriguez at No. 267. Rodriguez isn't as strong of a prospect as some other guys, including Walker Jenkins and Max Clark below him, but he has 23 homers in Triple-A this year and the Reds seem poised to have outfield openings.
- The Rockies have seven outfielders list here. I'm assuming they'll trade at least one of Mickey Moniak and Jake McCarthy before the deadline, which is why they're lower than they'd otherwise be. I think they really ought to trade both to make room for Condon and free up an opportunity for Sterlin Thompson or Zac Veen. Thompson has never posted great EV numbers, but he has excellent bat speed and an impressive 38/42 K/BB in 234 plate appearances in Triple-A. Veen has always been far more interesting as a fantasy prospect than as an actual one, but he's been decent in Triple-A with a 40 percent hard-hit rate that's helped lead to a .311/.385/.578 line in a hitter friendly environment. It's also too soon to write off Jordan Beck, and 2024 second-rounder Jared Thomas could be a factor before the end of next year.

158 - Tyler Glasnow - Dodgers
159 - Shane McClanahan - Rays
163 - Nathan Eovaldi - Rangers
164 - Corbin Burnes - Diamondbacks*
166 - Spencer Schwellenbach - Braves
- I don't think there's anything too controversial at the top here. Misiorowski might get the top spot next spring if he avoids injury in the second half, but Skubal still seems like the safer choice right now.
- Kade Anderson is the high prospect, with future Mariners teammate Ryan Sloan second on the list at No. 179. Both would be higher if the other didn't exist, since the Mariners probably won't have room for more than one at the start of next year. Even opening just one spot in Seattle's rotation means two from the current group would have to vanish. Luis Castillo is the obvious first option to go, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the Mariners trade Kirby or Miller. That's part of why those two are lower in the rankings than I would typically have them.
- Like the Mariners, the Dodgers have eight starting pitchers listed here. That makes me wonder if I'm being too aggressive in putting River Ryan at No. 150, but I truly love his potential if he can stay healthy. I'm not very optimistic about either Roki Sasaki (No. 298) or Emmet Sheehan (No. 347) at this point, but in such a great situation for pitchers, I couldn't entirely ignore either. Sheehan, in particular, probably belongs in the bullpen because of his inability to maintain his velocity into the middle innings of games.
- Atlanta's situation is going to be interesting if everyone shows up healthy next spring. Sale, Schwellenbach and Spencer Strider would seemingly be guaranteed spots. Veterans Reynaldo López, Bryce Elder and Grant Holmes will all be due back, with youngsters JR Ritchie, AJ Smith-Shawver, Owen Murphy and Hurston Waldrep fighting them for spots. Realistically, though, they'd probably want to add a legitimate No. 2 or 3 to that mix. I did include Ritchie at the bottom of the list, but Smith-Shawver and Murphy were left off because it's such a big crowd.
Relief pitching
39 - Mason Miller - Padres
49 - Jhoan Duran - Phillies
56 - Cade Smith - Guardians
59 - Josh Hader - Astros
70 - Aroldis Chapman - Red Sox*
79 - Andrés Muñoz - Mariners
97 - Louis Varland - Blue Jays
106 - Devin Williams - Mets
109 - David Bednar - FA
114 - Edwin Díaz - Dodgers
130 - Félix Bautista - Orioles
133 - Raisel Iglesias - FA
160 - Trevor Megill - Brewers
170 - Daniel Palencia - Cubs
191 - Robert Suarez - Braves
201 - Ryan Helsley - Orioles*
206 - Grant Taylor - White Sox
211 - Jacob Latz - Rangers
- There still aren't a ton of sure things here, and one imagines there will be a whole lot of movement this winter. Jason Adam, Adrian Morejon, Bryan Abreu, Evan Phillips, Alex Vesia and A.J. Puk are among the free agent setup men who could get signed to close. The Brewers might choose to part with either Megill or Abner Uribe in trade. The Giants' Randy Rodríguez, the D-backs' Justin Martínez and the Marlins' Ronny Henriquez could all return from arm surgeries to reemerge as closer candidates. Just a lot of fun possibilities.
- It'd also be a mistake to rule out the Guardians trading Smith in the offseason, though it's probably more likely to happen at next year's deadline or after 2027. He'll only be eligible for arbitration for the first time, so he won't be terribly expensive yet. Still, he'd net quite a haul, and the Guardians might figure they could do without him. With that in mind, I almost included Daniel Espino on the list. It's still very difficult to expect him to stay healthy, but he's touching 100 mph, and since he'll be out of options, he'll have to stick in the Cleveland pen next year.
- Taylor might be a top-100 guy on draft day if he finishes out this year as the White Sox's closer. I'd rather see him get another look as a starter, though. He'd probably rank around No. 250 if that happens.
