   For us on Yahoo where would you rank Ohtani (pitcher) & Ohtani (batter)? If you could respond I would appreciate it thanks.

     I’ll take a crack at this. Just the pitcher part. I’m just a regular fantasy baseball nut but I have Ohtani (pitcher) in a couple yahoo dynasty leagues and have wondered the same thing you have and this is what I’ve come up with. If you look at the GURU’s starting pitcher ranks you’ll see Ohtani ranked #22 behind Gore, Corbin & Glasnow and ahead of Kershaw, Berrios, Luzardo & Bauer. Interjecting Ohtani with those 7 pitchers on this 500 list would look like Gore 79, Corbin 67, Glasnow 74, – OHTANI – Kershaw 123, Berrios 93, Luzardo 103, Bauer 87. That puts Ohtani the pitcher somewhere in the 80 to 86 range. My thoughts anyway.

       Thanks but I’m trying to trade batter only version xD. Us Jacksons have to stick together. These dynasty lists differ greatly Erick Pena & Luis Matos were both on waivers guru had em 10 spots apart another list had em 215 spots apart.

     Hey guys, sorry for the delay, you can find shelly & keaton discussing ohtani’s rank here:

     and my thoughts:

     I’d have him around 25th best pitcher, as he’ll only start once per week & so probably only rack up 120-150 innings at peak. They should be damn fine innings, though. Hitter Ohtani isn’t a great asset not playing everyday except in daily leagues with deep benches (deep enough where it’s not painful to hold players without full playing time). In those leagues, I’d have him around 75th best. In both cases, it’s not a question of talent, but playing time.

     I had him 474th on my list but he didn’t make the top 500 for Keaton or Shelly. In any case, he was good in 2019 but quite bad in 2018 and 2017, so I think we’d want to see him repeat before buying in more.

   Hi, I donated about a month ago and have never received an email “to gain exclusive access to downloadable versions of all Dynasty Guru rankings”. Can’t find any contact info on your site. Any insight? Thank you, Chris.

   On your OF Ranks Victor Robles is 20th OF ahead of the likes of Starling Marte 21st , Andrew Benintendi 25th, Eddie Rosario 30th. Yet on your top 500 Robles ranks far down (almost 75 spots) the list compared to these players, this must be an oversight? LOVE your LIST, my favourite of all the industry lists.

     Nope, not an oversight. The consensus rankings are a collaborative effort from all 26 of our contributors These rankings are only the opinion of the three writers noted in the introduction so there will be slight differences between those positional lists and this top 500 all throughout.
