San Francisco Giants Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

So it was an ever year last season and just when it looked like the Madison Bumgarner-led San Francisco Giants were going to race all the way back up to the top again, the Chicago Cubs got in their way. But still, even if that was the end of their even-year title pattern, it was […]

San Diego Padres Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

It was another disappointing season for the San Diego Padres in 2016, but they will probably be fine with the big-league results knowing what is on the horizon. They aren’t going to be competitive next season, but they will soon have an outfield of Manny Margot, Hunter Renfroe and Travis Jankowski with guys like Wil […]

Los Angeles Dodgers Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

Now is a great time to be a Dodgers’ fan. Sure they didn't beat the Cubs in the NLCS last year, but between current on-field talent and minor league hopefuls, few teams are in a better position than Los Angeles. They’ve got one of the best shortstops in the game in Corey Seager and the […]

Colorado Rockies Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Rockies weren’t really expected to do much in 2016, but they surprised some in putting up a 75-87 record, finishing third in the NL West. In addition to the typical MVP-caliber performance of Nolan Arenado, D.J. LeMahieu won the NL batting crown, Trevor Story set an NL record for most home runs by a […]

2017 MLB Prospect Risers and Fallers: Torres, Bellinger, Fulmer & More

Prospects are like the stock market. One day something looks great, but a day later, that can all change. While there aren't day-to-day fluctuations that might make your outlook on a prospect change so heavily, there are always guys whose stock rises and falls considerably year-to-year and month-to-month. Today I'm here to take a look […]

Arizona Diamondbacks Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

Last season was disappointing for Arizona. They finished 69-93, fourth place in the NL West. This coming after quite possibly the overpriced signing of Zack Greinke (6-year, $206.5 million) and the worst trade of all time in acquiring Shelby Miller for Dansby Swanson, Ender Inciarte and Aaron Blair. And unfortunately, their farm system does not […]

St. Louis Cardinals Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The St. Louis Cardinals endured a down year by their astronomically high standards. They finished second in the NL Central with an 86-76 record, 17.5 games behind the Cubs. But read this crazy stat about St. Louis: that was tied for their fourth lowest record since 2000. They have been remarkably consistent over the years, […]

Pittsburgh Pirates Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Pittsburgh Pirates were most likely disappointed by their 2016 season. They finished 78-83 on the season and finished third in the division. Andrew McCutchen had a down year by his standards and Gerrit Cole posted the lowest innings total in his Major League career at only 116. But the Pirates will be returning all their […]

Milwaukee Brewers Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Milwaukee Brewers seemed to be locked into that third spot in the NL Central for the longest time. Between 2009 and 2014, they were in third place four of those six seasons. Now since 2013, fourth place has seemed to be their permanent home as they have finished second-to-last in all but the 2014 season. […]

Cincinnati Reds Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

For the longest time, the Cincinnati Reds held on to players like Mat Latos, Aroldis Chapman, Johnny Cueto, Mike Leake, Todd Frazier, Jay Bruce, etc. and only recently they decided to sell them off. And while the Chapman trade didn’t really help the rebuild effort as much as it could’ve (the Reds received no Top […]

Chicago Cubs Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

Well it finally happened. Thanks in large part to a farm system that has for years been ranked among the best, the Cubs won the World Series for the first time since 1908. They built from within, drafting outstanding prospects like Kris Bryant, Kyle Schwarber and Javier Baez, acquired other prospects or young talents via […]

Washington Nationals Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Nationals entered the season with the reigning MVP, a rotation with a pair of Cy Young-contenders and the best pitching prospect in baseball. So you could say expectations were kind of high for them to perform. And they certainly did . . . during the regular season. They finished the year with a 95-67 […]

Philadelphia Phillies Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The 71-91 record doesn’t show it, but 2016 was a successful season for Philadelphia. Their young trio of starting pitchers Vince Velasquez, Aaron Nola and Jerad Eickhoff impressed for much of the season while guys like Odubel Herrera, Maikel Franco, Cesar Hernandez and Freddy Galvis put together promising seasons. The Phillies are not necessarily going […]

New York Mets Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

It was a disappointing season for the Mets in 2016. A year after taking home the National League Pennant and losing in five games to the Kansas City Royals, expectations were for them to be back in the playoff chase with arguably the best rotation in baseball. But injuries to Steven Matz and Jacob deGrom […]

Nick Mariano's Dynasty Sleepers List (Premium Content)

The term "sleeper" remains a volatile one, but when you add the dynasty-league wrinkle to it then you really open yourself up to a can of worms. Some people are in 12-team dynasties with a rather healthy stable of prospects available for the picking, and others are fighting for scraps in 30-teamers where each Amateur […]

Miami Marlins Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Miami Marlins finished last season 79-82, a slightly improved season from 2015 when they went 71-91. But their 2016 season will be remembered only for the tragic loss of superstar starting pitcher Jose Fernandez, who was killed in a boat accident on Sept. 25. The loss of Fernandez was not only a devastating loss on […]

Atlanta Braves Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

It was another down year for Atlanta as they finished 68-93 and finished last in the NL East. Their pitching ranked 25th overall in fWAR (Fangraphs WAR) and their offense was even worse, ranked 29th overall in fWAR. But don’t worry Braves’ fans, help is on the way. The club has what appears to be […]

Texas Rangers Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Texas Rangers stunned everyone who believed the Houston Astros were going to run away with the division in 2016 by winning the AL West and posting a 95-67 record, best in the American League. However, their run ended in the first round as they were swept in three games by the Toronto Blue Jays, […]

2017 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: Hunter Renfroe

Those who follow prospects in any way at all should be familiar with Hunter Renfroe. He is a former first-round pick and a top 100 overall prospect the last two years. He was also MVP of the Pacific Coast League last season, mashing to the tune of an .893 OPS with 30 HR and 105 […]

Seattle Mariners Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

The Seattle Mariners are coming off their best season since 2014, having finished 86-76, three games shy of a Wild Card berth and nine games shy of the AL West title. And entering the offseason, it was clear general manager Jerry Dipoto was going to improve that record by any moves necessary. The team has definitely […]

Oakland Athletics Top MLB Prospects for 2017 Dynasty Leagues

Moneyball seems to be losing some of its touch. What once was an innovative way to examine the acquisition of players has now become common knowledge, and teams with more money are able to take advantage of this strategy. Because of this, Oakland with its small budget has had a rough go of it lately. […]
