Looks like next year I need to step up my game to reach Diamond level.

Gavin Lux only had 5 HR and 1 SB in 500 PA. That ties Joe Mauer (2018) for the worst HR + SB (6 HR) since Adeiny Hechavarria with 3 HR and 1 SB in 2016.

Samuel Basallo is going into his age 21 season. The only age 21 catcher season that I can find recently was Francisco Alvarez in 2023. He went .209 51 25 63 2. His ADP is currently 177 while Adley Rutschman's is 165. I don't think history is on his side to meet the expectations of the #13 C.

Using FG Depth Charts playing time with Steamer: Player A - 630 PA .254 83 20 68 30 ADP 50 Player B - 630 PA .252 84 20 65 29 ADP 200

First thought of looking at ADP. Caminero is going too high for someone that doesn't help in SB or AVG. I'd rather have guys like Tatis, Lindor, or Chourio over him easily.

Projections page has updated NFBC DC ADP! For those of us who don't take a break from fantasy baseball.

Steamer projections are out

That's a huge cliff at 3B this year. Pretty much all or nothing.

The new scoreboard is launched 🎉

Great way to end the regular season!

The new scoreboard beta is out!

Lots of interesting names at the bottom of xwOBA in the second half.

Nolan McLean is SP #14 for the second half in only 3 starts. Everyone above and below is pretty much double his innings.

3-way fight for the #1 fantasy player this year. Though at his ADP, Raleigh would be the most valuable. Caveat 2-catcher leagues.

#1 pitcher in the second half. Civale has been displaced.

Just as we all expected, Civale being the #1 pitcher in the second half.

Mind blown!!! Pete Crow-Armstrong's mom played Billy Heywood's mom in Little Big League.

My trade value list. I will admit I had a bug with Jose Ramirez during development. He shouldn't be this high, even as a Guardians fan.

Reminder that Mullins was one of the top fantasy hitters in April.

Raleigh rightfully gets all the headlines, but Will Smith is having just as good of an offensive season by wRC+

Updated top 10 for me.

One last bump here at lunchtime on the west coast: submit your FanGraphs trade value top 10 by 5pm PT today, and I'll pick a favorite and give them a one-year subscription to the site

My top 10 trade value list so far. With just a little bit of Cleveland bias in there.

New card drop

#2 pitcher for the past 30 days is... ?

Last 30 days, Tyler Freeman is out earning Freddie Freeman.

Evan Carter is the #1 player over the past 7 days and he's only 53% rostered on NFBC.

59 SB in 56 games 👀

New section on the player pages 👀

Player Rater over the past 7 days is led by 3 Angels.

Kyren Paris is the #3 fantasy player so far this year.

Ivan Herrera jumped to the #5 hitter after his 3 HR game.

Heads up to @keatonarneson.fangraphs.com, there is an account impersonating you on here and sending DMs to folks.

@enosarris.bsky.social @dvr.bsky.social Maybe you guys were just ahead of everybody else seeing the future starting RF for the Pirates.

WHIP leaders for the past 4 seasons. This is why Baily Ober's ADP is so high, even though he lacks "upside".

THE BAT/BATX has been added to the Player Rater.

I don't think I'll ever quit on Pfaadt.

Christopher Sanchez and Logan Webb were pretty much identical last season.

ATC has been added to the Player Rater projections

Bowden Francis was the #5 pitcher in the 2nd half and #1 in WHIP by almost double!

Jacob Wilson, A's starting SS, is a career .401 minor league hitter!

Just a friendly reminder that the Player Rater has projections. Right now it's just Steamer and FG Depth Charts, but will be updated when the others get added to the site. This also works in-season for updated projections.

I wonder if Jung Hoo Lee's ADP climbs when people check out his projections and remember that he exists. Steamer has him at about 300-15-15.

I thought I was going to be a Pete Crow-Armstrong drafter this year, but his ADP makes no sense to me when there are so many SB alternatives that are cheaper by a lot.

My favorite targets in fantasy baseball are hitters who've had multiple years of AB and entering their age 26 season... Christopher Morel
