Top-300 Fantasy Baseball Prospects For Dynasty Leagues: April 2021
FantraxHQ is the official content sponsor of Fantrax.com, the hottest Fantasy Site of 2019 and 2020.
A massive part of fantasy baseball dynasty leagues always has been and always will be prospects. No matter if you’re a diehard to the format or relatively new, everyone loves prospects and wants to establish a rock-solid core on their dynasty team. Having a top-notch farm system can help you replenish when you’re Major Leaguers start to decline and can keep you competitive year after year. And that’s the goal, right? We play dynasty fantasy baseball to have fun and to win. If you play to lose, then I’m not sure why you’re playing, to be honest. So, with all that said, it’s time to unleash an updated top-300 fantasy baseball prospects list on the world. Hopefully, this list helps you build a dominant farm now and into the future.
What Factors Into These Rankings?
- Proximity: For this list, proximity factors in somewhat, but this is mostly geared toward overall potential.
- Upside: Ceiling and floor are weighed at around a 2/3 to 1/3 split.
- System: The more I’ve learned, the more it has become very apparent that the system these prospects are in matters. If a franchise doesn’t have a great track record developing certain types of prospects or vice versa, that factors in to a degree.
- Key Tools (Hitters): We all love the flashy prospects that have the potential to put up gaudy numbers, but that can’t be all we look for. For hitters, I’ve really started factoring in a prospect’s hit tool more heavily. Below-average contact skills or plate approach can really limit a player’s power/speed upside.
- Key Tools (Pitchers): In my time doing this, command has become more and more important in my eyes. That’s why you’ll see certain pitchers a little lower than you might think. Take Luis Medina of the Yankees. He’s the perfect example of a pitcher with a dynamic arsenal that can’t locate any of his pitches. I’ll take a pitcher that throws 91-92 with plus command over 96-97 with spotty command any day of the week.

IMO Casey mize and Daley rutschman are top ten locks. Switch them with Luciano and Robinson is my hot take.
Did Urquidy not make the cut or was he not eligible? Thanks.
Eligible but didn’t make the list. Projects as a decent #4 type starter for me but I don’t project an overly high ceiling.
guys who throw strikes but don’t throw hard are always undervalued. But guys that throw 100 but can’t find the zone are ranked in the top 100 because of “upside”. Guess we will see on Urquidy but to not have him ranked on here is a little odd. Appreciate the work nonetheless.
Thanks JT. I’m just not super high on Urquidy. Looks like a #4 type of starter to me.
Keibert Ruiz?
Not overly high on him. Would be in my 300-350 range. Doesn’t impact the ball enough nto be a major impact bat. Contact skills and approach are sound, but he projects as a .280/10-12 HR bat for me.
Would you care to speculate on 2020 draftees? Torkelson, Hancock, Martin – top 100, 75, 50? Thanks.
Hey Gordy. Tork and Martin would probably be top 20-25. Hancock more around 30-35.
Victor Victor Mesa is off the radar now for dynasty? Is that mainly due to being 23 and not an impresive 2019?
The skillset suggests low-end regular or 4th OF to me. Nothing to get excited about for dynasty.
No Seth Corry or joe Ryan?
They’re in the 325-350 range. Ryan dominated as a 23yo in A/A+ mostly. Want to see him do it against more advanced competition.
No Jose De la Cruz?
Considered him. He wouldn’t be far off.
What about Joey Cantillo?
He didn’t miss by much. Would be in top-300.
Where do you rank Colton Welker and Jhailyn Ortiz?
Welker around 300-325, Ortiz more in the 450-500 range.
Great list
What’s your thoughts on upside of
Maximo acosta , Aaron bracho and luisangel acuna
All have very high offensive upside with top-25 overall potential. Acuna is very different from his brother but has a nice hit/speed combination. Bracho has the most power here, and Acosta the best all-around offensive tools.
thanks for some good news on those 3
Same question not as exciting list , looking for upside
Jared Oliva
George Kirby
Clarke schmidt
Joe Ryan
Thanks again keep the info coming
Thanks for the feedback on those 3 .. same question not as exciting list
Looking for upside if any
Jared Oliva
George Kirby
Clark schmidt
Joe Ryan
Keep the info coming
Twisted dynasty
Love Oliva. .275/10/30 upside and very underrated. Same with Kirby and Schmidt. Both project as high-end #3 starters and Kirby’s floor is ridiculously high.
My AL only League Team is heading into the Freeze Day with the below prospects. I can only Stash 2.
M. Kopech
M. Manning
R. Mountcastle
N. Gordon
I wanted to get your feedback on which 2 you think have the highest ceiling.
Thanks
-Pete
I’d go with Kopech and Manning. Gordon projects more as a backup infielder for me at this poing and Mountcastle is a good offensive talent, but can’t match the upside of Manning or Kopech.
Thanks for the feedback, I enjoyed reading through this Website.
Did I miss Ethan Hankins from this list?
I did… 105. Disregard.
Dynasty league
12 prospects roster…currently stashing 20 of them. Gotta cut 8. Would like ur advice
Grant Lavigne
Angelo Amendolare
Aaron Bracho
Yoshi Tsutsugo
Willie Castro
Jaylin Davis
Brent Rooker
Bobby Bradley
Ryan Mountcastle
Yusniel Diaz
Monte Harrison
Alex Kiriloff
Cristian Pache
Justin Dunn
Alex Faedo
MacKenzie Gore
Hunter Greene
Jay Groome
Franklin Perez
Ryan Rolison
Thanks
I would cut Davis, Castro, Amendolare, Bradley, Diaz, Perez, Rooker, Rolison, Faedo.
Hey Eric! Just wanted to say thank you and keep up the good work! I’m in a dynasty league with a pretty shallow amount of prospects rostered on each team (maybe 3-4 per team). My team was stagnant the last few years so decided to blow it up and rebuild. Started following you last offseason and I jumped on a few guys early at your recommendation and now my prospect pool is by far the best my league has ever seen and I’m looking pretty solid for the future. J-Rod, Luciano, K-Rob, Kirilloff, Waters, Brujan, Whitley, Manning, Pearson, May, Puk (plus the addition of one of the top FYPD players this upcoming draft) is pretty filthy if you ask me. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
Thank you Jordan! Happy to help and appreciate the support.
2 more upside only rankings
Pitchers 1 – 3
Whitley
Luzardo
Manning
Bats 1-4
Jasson Dominguez
Luciano
Abrams
Kristian Robinson
Twisted dynasty
In order: Whitley, Luzardo, Manning. Dominguez, Robinson, Luciano, Abrams.
Thanks again
Just curious
No Andres Munoz on the list ?
Munoz is no longer prospect eligible.
23ip. is it because of service time?
For some reason, I can’t see what player you’re referencing….
Dynasty league: curious and interested in your opinion about Kirk olivares and Herrera
Alex Vesia?
What are your opinions on guys like Seth Corry, Joe Ryan, and George Kirby.
Thanks.
Currently going through a 30 team dynasty that will roster 50 prospects each. How do you rank these guys on pure upside:
Gabriel Arias
Alexfri Planez
Gabriel Rodriguez
Jeferson Espinal
Going off your top 25s it seems like you think Planez has a super high ceiling
By all accounts Wander Franco is in a tier by himself. What would a positive return for him look like?
Something like Bichette + Kelenic?
Yeah, that’s in the ballpark. Maybe a little much actually.
I’m curious to know why you have Robinson and Luciano higher than other publishers. What is so special about them?
With Pardinho going under the knife, how does that effect his projections/rankings? How would you rank the most expendable between E Pardinho, D Kremer, A Kay and L Webb?
i have grown VERY dependent on your Organizational Top-25’s for my national league only keeper league as i think your evaluations are the most spot in in the business.. Are they going to start up again soon ? please 😉 ?
Seems american league is complete, post was regarding national league
Hello Eric, Sixto Sanchez is listed as the #22 ranked prospect on MLB Pipeline. Wondering why he’s ranked at #66 in your prospect rankings?
Three reasons for the gap. 1) MLB ranks pitchers more highly than I as they’re ranking on real-life value and not fantasy. With that said, I have Sixto a little lower than most as I question his longterm durability and I want to see him miss more bats.
Thanks for the insight!
I’m having a really hard time in my fantasy draft on picking between Jo Adell and Dylan Carlson…I am admittedly a Cardinals fan but I want to make the right decision!!! Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!!
While I do like Carlson, Adell has the higher upside. I’d take him.
Hey Eric, who would you rather have in a fantasy dynasty league, h2h cats. Liberatore or Gilbert? Any comps for either of them?
Thanks!
Hey Eric, in a 16 team dynasty league, h2h cats. Who would you prefer between Liberatore or Gilbert? Do you have any comps for them?
Thanks!
Hello Eric, in a 16 team dynasty league, h2h cats. Who do you like long term between Liberatore or Gilbert? What type of floor/ceilings do they have? Do you have any comps for them?
Thanks!
I suck with comps, but very high on both. Both have #2 starter upside, but I give the slight edge to Liberatore.
Was Tahnaj Thomas close to making it?
Yes he was. Might be in my new top-250 that comes out in a few weeks. He’s right on that cusp.
No love for Matt Tabor? I just drafted a first year dynasty 20 team draft and went prospect heavy. I really don’t feel like pushing my team in 2020 due to the reduced season but am putting a strong emphasis on development and being a top tier team by 2021. Who do you feel has the highest upside between josiah gray, Shane McCalahan, Blake Walston, and Matt Tabor. I also have snell, woodruff, kopech, manning, may, braiylin marquez, and Grayson Rodriguez.
I like Tabor, but not quite on this level. As for upside, I think Walston has the highest upside.
Francisco Morales just outside?
Nah. Not overly high on Morales in general. Probably would be 350-400ish
Hey Eric,
Was a little surprised to see Baz rated where he was.Are you still high on him? Also tell me more about Garrett Mitchell and what you project him to look like. Thanks for all your work.
Still very high on Baz. Not only does he have nasty stuff, but he’s a good guy with a great idea of what he needs to do to improve. Chatted with him on my podcast back in April.
Mitchell is interesting. Bigtime athlete with the potential to hit for both power and average if he corrects the hitch in his swing and adds loft. Huge upside but a little risky too.
I believe you have done something similar but would love to see an updated post on who has a chance to vault up the rankings in a singular article. Great stuff and thank you for all the work.
I’ll be doing something like that in the coming weeks.
Yikes I was feeling great about my open universe draft this year until reading your July update. I got Austin Martin fourth overall followed by Jordan Walker and Mick Abel in the second and third rounds. Felt great about it. But one of my competitors nabbed Zac Veen, Nick Gonzales, Asa Lacy, and Reid Detmers. Devastating to my morale. I think I’ll be okay though since I’m in a rebuild and tanking anyway and do have future stud Jake Bauers stashed in my minors!
Great list Eric!
Wondering what your thoughts are on Josh Lowe at 142… seems to have plenty of talent, what made you rank him at that spot?
He was nearly a top-100 guy in last update but the combination of his injury plus all the new 2020 draftees entering the list bumped him down to here. Thanks for checking in out and sorry for the delayed reply!
Who to cut can only keep 11 prospect(mind you sold a lot of my team to get these prospects to rebuild)
Adley Rutchsman
Andrew Vaughn
Brendan rodgers
Jeter downs
Jordan groshans
Noelvi Marte
Brendan Rodgers
Alec Bohm
CJ Abrams
Jasson Dominguez
Julio Rodriguez
Dylan Carlson
Gavin Lux
Matthew Liberatore
Forrest Whitley
Nick Lodolo
Grayson Rodrigue
Spencer Howard
Much help needed!!
This is tough but I’d keep Adley, Vaughn, Marte, Abrams, Jasson, J-Rod, Carlson, Lux, Whitley, Howard, Groshans or Bohm for last one.
Where do you rate Jorge Mateo now that he plays for the Padres. The Padres have such a deep farm system he can get buried pretty easily. I have always liked Mateo, since he was on the Yankees, but everywhere he goes he continues to get blocked. Is he destined for the outfield
For just the Padres or overall?
I do think he moves to the outfield or into a super utility role. 2B not out of the question either.
What do you think about Oswald peraza for the Yankees. MLB has him listed as the Yankees 4th ranked prospect. Where is he on your list?
For my NYY list he was back end top-10. Like the tools for sure .
Hey Eric, thanks for the updated prospect list. With no minor league season, what made you bump George Kirby from 137 to 75? Have you heard something from the alternate site?
I bumped Kirby and Lodolo up due to my emphasis on command guys with good stuff ranking highly. I under-ranked them last update in July and corrected it now. Thanks for reading!
Is Antonio Cabello still valuable?
Still has good upside, but would be difficult to trade him right now due to his struggles. 2021 will be a huge year for him and send him flying up or down rankings.
Eric – you are the man. I just want to say that upfront. I REALLY appreciate all your hard work and how fantastic you are about replying via twitter and other places. Quick question for you: Karinchak and Kremer both graduated I assume? If not, whereabouts would each have ranked on this list.
You the man!
Thank you Mark! Greatly appreciate the kind words. I love what I do and interacting with everyone on social media. Karinchak graduated, Kremer did not. Kremer would be in the 280-300 range for me.
Let’s say Karinchak didn’t graduate due to my league not having the active roster requirement (just IP). Where does he slide in?
Probably back-end top-100. Relievers never rank too highly in my prospect rankings.
why did Karinchak graduate? is there criteria aside from the 130/50 ?
He did. 45+ days on the active roster.
Great list as usual
Pitchers I currently own looking for upside projections
Ace upside (future top 10 sp ) ?
Asa Lacey
Max Meyer
Mick Abel
Nick Bitsko have ace upside ?
Top 25 sp upside ?
Clarke schmidt
George Kirby
Thank you! I’d mostly agree with that. Those top four have immense upside. Schmidt and Kirby not far behind either. For upside, I’d rank them Abel, Lacy, Bitsko, Meyer, Schmidt, Kirby.
Randy Arozarena at 98? I’ve seen people mentioning him being in the top 100 picks overall next year. With a solid track record and hot end to season and playoffs, feel like he should be in top 25-30 at the very least?
Can’t overreact to an extremely small sample size. I bumped him up a ton here and personally think him being a top-100 overall pick in 2021 is ridiculous.
Who is 179?
Shoot, not sure how that happened. I’ll look into it. Thanks for the catch.
Who is #179?
Shoot, not sure how that happened. I’ll look into it. Thanks for the catch.
Just traded christian yelich straight up for Jared kelenic, what do you think?
As much as I love Kelenic, I think you could’ve gotten a good 2nd piece with him.
Which pitching prospect has the higher ceiling Spencer Howard or Logan Gilbert?
Strictly ceiling, I’d take Gilbert.
Obviously Karinchak graduated, but say you had to rank him in this list. Where would you put him?
is tyler stephenson( catcher for the reds) considered a prospect? Where would he rank on this list?
He’s not anymore. I’d have him as a borderline top-250 guy. Never been super high on him.
Where are the 2020 J2 players that just signed?
They will be in my next update in a few weeks. This was from November.
Opinion on Austin Beck? Has he completely fallen off the radar for prospects?
Beck has good raw power but the contact skills and approach haven’t developed at all.
Can’t wait!
Hey Eric! What do you think of Yiddi Cappe? Just not enough on him yet?
Like the upside and considered including him.
No faith in Chris Rodriguez?
I do, he’s in the next 50 or so.
In a 12 team 5×5 roto keeper league. Keep 15 each year, with players getting $5 raises. My team is not winning this year and more in re-build mode with eyes on next year.
My 3B – Moncada, Bohm, My OF – Arozarena, Carlson
Would you prefer a $5 Tork or a $6 Kelenic?
That’s close, but leaning Kelenic
Appreciate the feedback.
My offer of Tork for Kelenic was shot down.
12 team 5×5 roto keeper league. $5 raises each year. $320 cap, so I’m way under as is and could keep all 15 again next year without issue if I wanted. Current 15
1B – Olson $25
2B – Albies $17, Lux $5
3B – Moncada $30, Bohm $15, Tork $5
OF – Arozarena $10, Carlson $10
SP – Fried $15, Gore $13, Musgrove $10, Valdez $10, Pearson $6
RP – Karinchak $8
Couple Questions
He didn’t want Tork, but is looking to compete this year. Should I offer up $30 Moncada for $6 Kelenic?
A team with a $15 Alonso has expressed interest in a $25 Olson/$5 Lux deal? Would you think about it? Seems like a bit much with Lux’s ceiling?
Was offered Patino $6 for $10 Musgrove, take that?
I would take those Kelenic and Patino deals but not the middle one. Still very high on Lux.
Appreciate the feedback on all this, got me thinking through other scenarios and was able to re-work the Olson/Lux for Alonso trade to Olson/Soroka for Alonso!
Guy with Kelenic is unsure about deal, so waiting on that.
I’m in a long term dynasty league that has 6 minor league slots. I have done exceptionally well with these slots. I currently have the following players:
Wander Franco
Julio Rodriguez
CJ Abrams
Nick Gonzalez
Nate Pearson
Grayson Rodriguez
I’m curious what happened that made you flip Franco and Kelenic?
Power/speed blend is higher with Kelenic. If you go to my author page (click my name at the top of any article) and scroll down a little, I did an article a week ago or so comparing the two. The flip wasn’t a knock on Wander at all.
I feel like Kelenic might have the edge this year, but long term Dynasty I like Franco. Though all bets are off when Julio gets to the show. The top 6 guys on your list all look like they are gonna be fantasy juggernauts.
Oh, for sure. The top-end talent right now is ridiculously good.
Awesome list Eric! With this list and the black book, I’m ready for baseball to start. Would you deal Groshans, D. Garcia and Valera for Flaherty? The owner of Flaherty has expressed interest in Vaughn, Greene, Freeman, Lynch, Groshans, Valera, D. Garcia and Lynch. I want to hold Greene and Vaughn.
Thank you Kevin! I would be okay dealing that trio for Flaherty.
Where is Jo Adell on ranking? He still qualifies as minor leaguer, and is super young.
I use MLB prospect guidelines where he exhausted eligibility at the end of 2020 due to time with the big club. If I ranked him, he would be #6.
Madrigal 80?! wow. He’s an absolute hitting machine IMO. – tiny strikezone.Curious how he is that far down?
I notice that there really isn’t a lot of press on Cespedes. He looks like. 5 tool player. Why is he not getting any hype?
Madrigal: I like Madrigal, but the lack of power limits his upside for fantasy. he’s a 3-cat producer at best.
Cespedes: Like the power/speed blend, but there are questions surrounding the hit tool
Just curious , I’m not disagreeing but what made kelenic #1 over Wander ?
Great updates list
BB
Power/speed blend is higher. If you go to my author page (click my name at the top of any article) and scroll down a little, I did an article a week ago or so comparing the two.
Hi Eric,
Looking to upgrade in SB and also at C. I am looking at Trea Turner and Salvador Perez from an owner. Do you think my offer is too much/too little? Thanks!!
I receive: Trea Turner & Salvador Perez
He receives: Xander Bogaerts, Tarik Skubal, Noelvi Marte and 2.22 FYPD 2020 class
Hey Zack, yeah that’s a bit rich for me. Maybe take out Marte.
Thanks for the reply! The owner really does not want to part with Turner, but he desperately needs pitching. Does this deal sound okay to you, or should I ask for a bit more? My pitching depth is good with Gallen, Gray, Burnes, Hendricks, Paddack, Sale (when he returns), Pineda, Caleb Smith.
Trea Turner & Salvador
Xander & Glasnow
I’d be okay making that deal.
The Turner owner is obviously very stubborn with him, so I had to look elsewhere. How do you feel about Teoscar overall? Are either of these deals okay with you?
Teoscar Hernandez FOR Sam Huff & Chris Paddack
or
Teoscar FOR Sam Huff, Josiah Gray and 1.11 FYPD 2020
Thanks again Eric, you’re the best
The first one is okay, not a fan of the 2nd one. Hernandez’s power/speed is legit even if the AVG isnt.
Hey Eric!
As always, I really appreciate all of the research you do and info you provide. It’s a great tool when valuing prospects in my dynast league. I know you’re lucky enough to get to see some of these guys in person, but I was curious how you go about watching/scouting these guys on a consistent basis? I’ve built up a pretty solid list of twitter profiles to follow and still find it extremely hard to find video of guys outside of the mega prospects.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
I honestly can’t see as many in person as I want to. I get to about 40-50 MiLB games a season but cant do more as I’m a single father and only have two parks within 2 hours of me. Thank you for your support!
I have Luis Garcia (SP Astros) in a few leagues but never see him in any rankings. His minor league stats are great, although high BB/IP and he is older. Any comments? is he worth retaining in deeper dynasty leagues?
It’s all about his control for me. I’m not sure he’s a starter longterm, but could be a solid middle reliever.
Eric, thanks for all you do! Your lists are amongst the best, and I often refer and defer to your opinions.
Add in your personal answers to roster questions, and you’re the best!
Anyway, I inherited a team with a tepid farm. I’m always looking to raise the floor, and I was wondering if you have anything good to say about: Justin Williams STL, Karl Kauffman COL, Louis Alexander Basabe SF, Brandon Bishop SEA, Forrest Wall TOR, Taylor Widener AZ, Zack Collins CWS, Aramis Ademan CUBS, Mark Mathias MIL, Delvin Perez STL, Bryce Denton STL
Also, any opinions on my int’l free agent signings? Angel Genoa and Ricardo Perez
(30 teams had $5M each, and I got these guys for $4.3M.)
Thank you for the kind words Jonathan! Williams intrigues me as a potential impact OF down the road. Kauffman I’m out on due to him being in COL. DOn’t think he’s good enough to overcome that. Basase has some speed upside, but I’m not sure he ever hits enough. Collins looks like a backup C to me. Ademan could rise up some ranks if he shows improvements at the plate.
I play in a dynasty league where each team is allowed 6 keepers (8 teams). I have the 2nd overall pick this year. I am torn between Alex Bregman and Randy Arrozerena. Prospects are allowed to be kept free for 3 years without counting as a keeper spot. That is our version of “arbitration.” I already have Jose Ramirez at 3B, but Bregman by far is the best available option with 2nd overall pick. Do I take Bregman the best player available or Arrozerena free for 3 years? Thanks for all that you do.
I’d go bregman there. he’s still a great player and much safer than Arozarena.
How much did I screw up taking Lodolo over Hassell? I had just taken Garrett Mitchell and was worried Lodolo would be the only chance at a pitcher I liked. Turns out I did get other pitchers I liked and if I were to do it again I would take Hassell instead of Lodolo. Are you worried at all about Lodolo? He fell about 40 spots.
Heard mixed reports on the FB. Still like him quite a bit though and think he’s gonna be good for a long time, but I’m all in on Hassell.
Should I be worried about Lodolo? He fell significantly far since last rankings. Thoughts on him?
Not worried, but heard mixed reports on his FB. He’s still very good, but not sure he’s a big-time fantasy arm.
