Lawler has shown above-average or better contact skills and raw power with plus speed as well. Much like 2020 UCLA draftee Garrett Mitchell, I do not think McLain is getting the respect he deserves. After spurning the Red Sox last draft, Jud Fabian is now with their division rival. There were rumblings about his asking price and character issues, but I dont like to speculate on the latter without knowing the person myself. I dont go out of my way too much, but I am fairly confident Termarr will be very good for a long time. March 17, 2022 2 3k 1 PhotoCred: Getty Images With the signing of Seiya Suzuki comes the final update to my FYPD rankings this offseason. Its a harder changeup around 89-91, but Petty has shown some feel for it with some fade and sink as well. The name of the game with Elijah Green is upside. Hjerpe mixes in a solid fastball, changeup, and slider and has exceptional command. In his 2021 season at Wright State, Black walked 39 times while only striking out 25 times. Druw Jones is the clear-cut top prospect in this year's draft with a case to be a true five-category player. BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - JULY 27: 2022 Baltimore Orioles first round pick, and Number 1 overall selection of the 2022 First-Year Player Draft, Jackson Holliday is introduced to the crowd before the fourth inning of the game between the Baltimore Orioles and the Tampa Bay Rays at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on July 27, 2022 in Baltimore, Maryland. Baltimore is getting a well-rounded shortstop on both sides of the ball. Hes posted more walks than strikeouts in each of his last two collegiate seasons and had a strong showing in the Cape Cod League as well, slashing .298/.398/.589 with nine homers and five steals in 34 games. (Eric), Media Credit:Chris Clegg (Feature Image). His changeup lags behind a bit but hes now in one of the best organizations for changeup development. McMahon often flies under the fantasy radar, making him one of the sneakier third base sleepers for 2023. Instead of a 25-20 upside that I think Jones has, Cermak is in the 20 homers and 10-12 stolen-base bucket of players. Chris Clegg's Top-125 FYPD Rankings. There is some concern he ends up as a reliever because of command issues, If he does, he could become a top 10 closer with that stuff if given that role. I even think he can sneakily steal 10-12 bags a year during his first few years, and anything helps in the steals department. If you are looking to draft a pitcher this year, I would be willing to take a shot on Bednar rather than paying up for one of the high-end arms. Having a hit tool like Liles is a great building block. His future success could depend on how he returns from Tommy John Surgery. He probably gets a bump up in value as he ends up at third-base because of the dearth of the position. I just question if he will make enough contact, but if he does he will make this spot look foolish. There is a strong chance Melendez could provide 30 home runs with a serviceable batting average at the big league level. window.__mirage2 = {petok:".jRpceyP7dv7SSRUjRKriV7_loM7NCEmSqWNqJiAD1A-1800-0"}; Peyton Graham has some interesting tools for a college middle-infielder, with above-average speed and power. Theres an intriguing set of tools here, but will Colas hit enough to be an impact bat. Barreira is another prep pitcher with a high ceiling, hes got that fastball that gets up to the mid 90s from the left-side, with a good breaking ball. Its possible he sticks at shortstop long term, but he could also grow out of the position and end up at third base. The game power does lag behind a bit but Frelick could settle in around 50-grade there if he bulks up a bit. I am not saying hes the next Aaron Judge, but he does have all the ingredients to be the next Aaron Judge for the Yankees. I fully acknowledge that Brock Jones may never hit enough to tap into his power or his speed in games but I like him as a gamble. So if you have a contending team and are in need of a bat, Suzuki is a solid choice. Updated: 5/2/2022. . Zachary Neto, SS, Angels Age: 22 A strong professional debut has elevated Neto's Fantasy stock, his power playing better than expected as the Angels attempt to fast-track him to the majors. He strikes me as the type to hit at the top of an order so that should result in his fair share of run opportunities. Cusick will need to show improved command and a developing changeup if he wants to make it as a starter at the big league level. When he figures it out he can be a perennial 30+ homer bat, especially being a left-handed batter who can deposit balls over that comically short right-field porch in Yankee Stadium. He may be a high strikeout SP3 with potential for more. Something to note is that one of the most fun parts about playing in a dynasty league is that they are complex. (Clegg), Max Wagner had a monster season at Clemson but isnt really being talked about in fantasy circles. Over those five starts he struck out 49 hitters over 31 innings. Rayner Arias, SS San Francisco Giants. This is purely a lottery ticket this late in drafts, we havent seen him in a while. Posted January 26, 2022 One of my leagues: ROUND 1 1.1 - Marcelo Mayer SS BOS 1.2 -- Kahill Watson SS MIA 1.3 - Jordan Lawler SS ARI 1.4 - Jack Leiter SP TEX 1.5 - Brady House SS WSH 1.6 - - Cristian Vaquero OF WSH 1.7 - Henry Davis C PIT 1.8 - Matt McLain SS CIN 1.9 Colton Cowser OF BAL 1.10 - Sal Frelick OF MIL 1.11 - Jackson Jobe SP DET Cho has big power which he displayed at the National Power Showcase in November 2020. Horton doesnt have the longest track record of success but a starter who has reached 98 and should be a quick mover is worthy of this ranking. Senga has that devastating splitter that is going to be a problem, and become a staple on Pitching Ninja. Theres Josh Jung upside in the bat if everything clicks, making him a solid back-end top-10 FYPD selection. But I do like Porter, its amongst the best pitch mixes from a high-schooler in the draft. He will be a nothing burger in the speed department, but he could become a middle-of-the-order masher for you. Parada finished the season at Georgia Tech with 26 home runs and a .361/.453/.709 slash and just 32 strikeouts to 30 walks. Misiorowski has some serious upside, the stuff is nasty, and will get whiffs. (Cross), As with Jones above, Peyton Graham is likely going to be a value pick in FYPDs this year. So I came into making these rankings thinking I was going to love Cam Collier, but I believe this ranking would make me the low guy on him. The tradeoff could mean hes more of a 50-grade runner longterm, but he could still add double-digit steals to a 55+ hit/power profile in a great hitters park. Hes got some projection left in his frame, he already shows an ability to miss bats and doesnt walk everyone. Posted on January 13, 2022 Patreon Post: Top 50 2022 Dynasty Baseball First Year Player Draft Rankings This list will go about 100 deep when the Top 1,000 Rankings get released in very early February, but with first year player drafts picking up in January, I wanted to get a Top 50 list out. He could develop into a solid CI option. The biggest question coming into the high school season was his hit tool after some struggles in summer ball in 2020.

Has a passion for dynasty formatted leagues. (Cross), Peyton Pallette seemed like a sure-fire first-rounder before having Tommy John Surgery in January. It is fair, but Kim came from the KBO which is a step down from the NPB. I know I would. The big 66/240 right-hander transitioned into East Carolinas rotation in 2021 and blossomed into one of the best pitchers in the nation and an easy first-round selection. (Clegg), Admittedly, Im a bit higher than most on Brock Jones, but he has a very fantasy-friendly skillset. Reading lists is easy. (Cross), Overall, Jud Fabian is a talented player on both sides of the ball. (Clegg), Drafted: #227 Oberall | From: Coastal Carolina, Eric Brown may have an unconventional setup and swing, but he makes it work. He also will not sacrifice power in doing so. He makes consistent hard contact and controls the strike zone well. Overall, in my live look, Kudrna was head and shoulders above Mozzicato. Ferris got paid like a first-rounder by the Cubs so the organization is high on him. The city boy of this draft, Kevin Parada has all the makings of a stud fantasy catcher. Last season he hit 17 home runs and stole seven bases. Think of a high strikeout SP5, he should be relatively quick to the majors as well so that is a bonus. Middle of the order masher type, who could help in the HR and RBI department. Not a bad player by any means, just I like the guys I have in front of him more. Offsetting the heater is an upper-80s slider that flashes plus and an average changeup that shows potential for more. (Chris), From: South Alabama | Drafted By: Philadelphia Phillies, As I mentioned with Gelog, there isnt a standout tool with Ethan Wilson, but hes proven to be an above-average hitter with solid pitch recognition and plate discipline. Oh, and keep in mind these projections are for a guy who is just coming over to play Major League Baseball. In a bullpen role he could even be fantasy viable. He was originally drafted 25th overall by the Diamondbacks in 2018, but elected to attending UCLA. His hit tool can rival any prep hitter in the entire class. He does have the potential to be one of the best pitchers in this class thanks to an incredible changeup and a solid curve and fastball. If that doesnt bother you, Graham is a fine upside play. Considering the raw power that Ford can generate, he hits the ball to all fields well. The bat has a chance to be special. But despite that the Orioles took him in the second round, and this late in your FYPDs, thats enough for me to take a gamble. His hit tool is strong though and Young could grow into more power in time. He is a baseball junkie. When he isnt giving fans the bird, Jordan Beck is an exciting player who in Coors could be even more exciting. Hes also shown a good feel for hitting and can drive the ball to all fields. Hes an above-average or better hitter with exceptional plate discipline and potentially above-average power to go with it. 9) Miguel VargasLAD, 3B, 23.4 - Vargas made his MLB debut in 2022 and while he only put up a .455 OPS in 50 PA, there is nothing I love more than seeing rookies hit the ball hard. Well, get ready for part 2 of that with Benny Montgomery, a 64 outfielder from Pennsylvania. Ford is also a plus runner and posted a 6.42 second 60 yard dash time. In 81.1 innings, Williams posted a stellar 1.88 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 6.4% walk rate, and 39.4% strikeout rate. A new year, a new board and new ranks. Hes not a five-category contributor but he should post an elite average, and pitch in everywhere else while hitting lead-off for the Red Sox. Druw Jones is the son of a possible hall of famer, and is also a good player in his own right. Hes got some serious juice in his bat and is decently athletic, so that should translate to that power and speed we are chasing.
