Aaron Judge is locked into the top spot. If Judge stays healthy, he should flirt with 50 home runs, as the two-time AL MVP hit that marker in two of the last three seasons.
Bobby Witt Jr., the 2024 AL batting champion who hit the 30-30 marker for the second-straight season, comes in at #2. Elly De La Cruz, who nearly hit 30 home runs in 2024 and led the Majors in stolen bases, is at #3.
Shohei Ohtani is at #9 after a historic campaign that saw him become the first 50-50 player in MLB history. However, Ohtani is preparing to pitch in 2025. Ohtani’s stolen bases were significantly lower in years in which he pitched. And given the injury he sustained in the World Series last October, don’t expect him to be as active on the basepaths.
Our list includes a number of significant risers after strong 2024 seasons. Jarren Duran (#17), Jackson Chourio (#23), and Jackson Merrill (#33) were all players outside the top-100 in 2024. Now, all three are in the top-40.
Paul Skenes, who was arguably a top-three starter after his promotion to the Majors in the spring of 2024, clocks in at #13.
The top-200 also includes notable first and second-year players aside from Skenes, including Wyatt Langford (#59), James Wood (#64), and Spencer Arrighetti (#81).

Disclaimer: Our fantasy ranking separates Shohei Ohtani by position. For leagues that do not separate the two, Ohtani should be ranked #1.
