With every type of league, comes very different player values and subsequent optimal strategies. That's why we created customized rankings and projections for your specific formats, geared towards that specific league platform and set of scoring rules. Read more below!

 

Cracking the Fantasy Baseball Cheat Code for All League Types

One of the best things about fantasy baseball also gives it the steepest learning curve in fantasy sports -- there are a multitude of ways to play, but how each variation values players can (and will) swing wildly. The more you understand player values, the more prepared you'll be to win, but there are many curves on this path to fantasy enlightenment, as the answer to "what kind of league do you play in?" is never quite as simple as it is in other sports.

Do you play Roto?

Is it classic 5 x 5 or maybe head-to-head categories? If so, you're in luck because that's what the majority of fantasy content centers around. But what if you use OBP instead of AVG, or quality starts in place of Wins? What about if it's a 6 x 6 league with all of the above? Or one that uses K/9, IP, OPS, Total Bases, etc?  Going into the fourth season of this service, it's very clear many, many people play something other than the classic 5 x 5 roto handed down from our fantasy elders.

The more variations there are, the further you get away from the usefulness of general fantasy analysis, leaving many players stuck with bad information.

Do you play points?

Sorry, players -- it's even more bad news for you. There is no "typical" points league, with each major fantasy platform offering their own standard settings, as well as virtually any custom adjustment you could ask for. If you want to properly value your players you'll either have to do the work yourself or trust whatever (if any) information that the platform gives you in the draft room.

This is less than ideal.

If only there was a way to get custom-made player values for virtually any fantasy baseball league, created with the best projections in the business and laid out in a user-friendly manner that's easy to leverage for fantasy dominance, he sighed, pensively.

If only...only...only...

Take those "if only's" and stuff 'em in your pocket -- our Custom Rankings Service is here to help make your fantasy dreams a reality and without you so much as breaking a sweat.

Whether it's classic 5 x 5 Roto:

...Or a 10-team league with Saves + Holds and Quality Starts:

...Or a H2H points league on ESPN:

The Custom Rankings Service has your back.

 

Powered by ATC Projections

Everything starts with the projections and our Custom Rankings Service only runs on premium fuel. We're not talking regular gas, either -- we need that straight NOS, Dom.

This is why our Custom Rankings Service in 2025 is again powered by the award-winning ATC projections from RotoBaller's own, Ariel Cohen.

Since debuting, Ariel's "Average Total Cost" projections have been one of the industry's best, year in and year out. And I personally believe that the way they are produced makes them particularly suited for the advantages we're trying to press with the custom ranks.

ATC is an aggregated projection system that uses different weighted averages from other projection systems (Steamer, The BATx, etc), setting the weights according to historical performances from the systems used. In other words, it's a "smart" average of the systems, accounting for which system does best projecting each individual statistic, and weighting the average accordingly.

Other systems might beat ATC in a given year but I'm a firm believer that Ariel's method is so sound that it's (almost necessarily) always going to be one of the best available. Or, in fantasy terms, ATC's floor is incredibly high.

Putting projection systems aside, just the act of turning projected points into dollar-based values that account for your league's particular rosters and replacement levels is enough to give you a monster advantage in your valuations compared to someone doing otherwise. I don't care what projection system you use and it can't be overstated; using properly calculated dollar values is an overwhelming difference. Full stop.

With that big of an advantage already, we don't want any of it to get siphoned away because another projection system (say, BAT X, for example) has an off year, for whatever reason. Don't take that as a knock against Derek Carty; his projections are excellent and continue to get better every year - which is exactly why ATC incorporates them! But the "smart-average" underpinnings of ATC will just generally make it really, really hard to have a no-good, rotten year of projections.

This low-risk/high-ceiling profile makes it the perfect pairing for the hammer of our valuation systems.

All ATC does is win-win, no matter what-what:

 

The Custom Rankings Process

We keep the process as simple as possible, but here's the tl;dr -- you send us your specific league settings and we tell you how valuable everyone is, wrapping it all up in an easy-to-digest set of spreadsheets that include the latest player projections. Easy-squeeze.

For the more curious, however, there are (friendly) devils in these details. This process is a combination of man and machine, in what many are calling the most significant union of human and robot since Vicki from "Small Wonder".

This allows for the highest level of customized customer care, for virtually any league you can imagine.

Step One: You make your request

We have forms for point-based leagues (H2H, Best Ball, etc) and category-based leagues (Roto, H2H Categories, etc). Take two minutes to fill them out with your specific league settings and hit 'send'. Your part has now concluded.

Step Two: The Magical Elves Get to Work

Okay, 'elf'. Regardless, the man behind the curtain receives and reviews your request, but if something seems funky, you'll probably be hearing from the MBTC for clarification. Oversights including but not limited to: the wrong number of categories, missing positions, a plus instead of a minus in points, or an IP getting one point instead of three. Mistakes like this are understandable and herein lies the advantage of our cyborg-situation: in a fully automated system, mistakes like those would still give you values -- they would just be terrible.

Step Three: Profit

Your values are created using the best projections in the business, using methods underpinned by classic techniques but with some proprietary pixie-dust sprinkled to and fro. All of this is then wrangled and collated into a book of cheat sheets filled with those championship devils.

After your custom rankings are meticulously created and reviewed, they will arrive in your inbox within 48 hours.

So, what's inside?

 

How Our Custom Rankings Help Your Roto and Category Leagues (Including Best Ball)

A collection of spreadsheets broken down by position, with all of your custom values and ATC projection laid out for ease of use:

 

The overall tab keeps it simple, but the positional tabs bring forth more manna:

 

What's Included

  • Custom values and ranks for overall and by position
  • Recent ADP and ADP ranks, both overall and by position
  • Eligible positions
  • Projected order and pitcher roles
  • The most fantasy relevant stats from the latest ATC projections
  • Keeper and draft tracking

 

How Our Custom Rankings Help Your Points Leagues (Including Best Ball)

The greatest trick that rotisserie baseball ever played was convincing the world that point players don't exist. Sounds melodramatic but an overwhelming majority of the quality fantasy baseball content available is geared towards classic roto leagues even though the share of people that play H2H points on ESPN, Yahoo, CBS, and Fantrax is large and continues to grow.

If and when you do find content, what are the chances that it'll accurately reflect the myriad of scoring options that your league might have and give actionable advice for your specific league settings?

Hint: the answer is about zero.

No longer, friends. You're safe now. I know you're hesitant; you've been hurt so many times before - so have I. But whether you're a new player, old player, or just a janitor who's secretly a mathematical genius, I'm here to tell you that it's not your fault. Look me in the eyes, fellow pointers... It's not your fault!

Okay, everyone better? Good. Let's dry our eyes and get to work because therapy is over and those dark days are past.

As with Roto players, you'll start with a collection of spreadsheets broken down by position, with all of your custom values and ATC projection laid out for ease of use -- but point-rates have now entered the chat:

The positional tabs are more of the same from before, but it can't be understated how useful point-rates (pts per PA/IP) can be when comparing hitter to hitter, starter to starter, and reliever to reliever. They are the window to a player's points soul:

Point-rates are the best way of judging a player's system scoring profile, that is, how a player's projected skill set fits into your given scoring system. Scoring rates tend to be fairly sticky from year-to-year, and can not only help you find sleepers and values but also help you avoid landmines.

Looking at the table above (which is from a standard Yahoo league), the point-rates of Gleyber Torres and Matt McLain stick out. Gleyber Torres looks like a great value at his current ADP but a relatively low point-rate tells us he'll be heavily dependent on his PAs. Matt McLain, on the other hand, is properly rated according to ADP but an elite points per-PA rate is flashing a breakout if you believe he can reach 600+ PA.

 

Get Your Custom Rankings

Never before has it been so easy to gain a huge advantage over your unsuspecting competition. Forget about playing chess while they're still on checkers -- this is more like comparing someone playing chess to someone struggling to read "Red Fish, Blue Fish".

Your prep will just be built different.

Get your personal custom rankings for 2025 with this exclusive one-of-a-kind service for both Points Leagues and Category Leagues (H2H or Roto).  You can sign up for the RotoBaller Fantasy Baseball Season Pass here, using promo code NOTBURT at checkout for an additional discount.

Trust the process. Break your league. Try not to be smug.
