The Dynasty Guru 2023 Top 500 Dynasty Players for OBP Leagues

·

Whew. I can’t express how excited I am to share my Top 500 List for OBP dynasty leagues. It’s my first publicly available personal endeavor, so I’d be lying if I didn’t say there was a little apprehension. But only a little, and this won’t be my last Top 500 List either. We have plans to continue to update the rankings list here on the website during the year and share frequent updates with our Discord. So if you’re like me and follow prospect rankings like a stock broker, join the fun now! 

This list assumes a 15-team, 5×5 Roto league with OBP for our batters and QS and S+H/2 for pitchers. These settings mimic the TDG Positional Ranks that we’ve been posting all off-season. The list also assumes that rosters are the ‘keep forever’ dynasty format with one starting catcher. They would hold about 25 MLB players per team (~375 total) and 15 MiLB players (~300 total) on a separate roster. 

My ranking mantra weighs current and recent performance more so than projected future performance. And the further we predict impacts, the less I rely on them. Because of the league assumptions, the list weighs proximity prospects a bit heavier than the toolsy, raw types. Regardless of league settings, I love absolute ceilings much more than floors. So you will definitely still see these types scattered throughout. 

If you really dive in you’ll see that I may have players listed at different positions and in a different order than my positional rankings. While my personal positional ranks did give me an early outline, those were started in November. Both real and dynasty baseball doesn’t seem to sleep. So as injuries and surgeries have become known and as trades and signings have happened, my opinions have adjusted. 

I wouldn’t have read an introduction this far and props to those who have. It blows my mind that I’m able to carry on the TDG legacy started by Bret Sayre a decade ago. Not just ranking 500 players, but also being part of this awesome group of Gurus. I lastly just want to thank our commander-in-chief, Taylor, for his help throughout the process of getting this list out there. Cheers all, I hope you enjoy it!

      Fixed. Thanks, John! It’s so hard to find good help these days…

    For us on Yahoo is Ohtani batter only still #1? Where does Ohtani pitcher only rank? Any guess when Ohtani stops pitching to save from wear & tear so he can play more seasons in the MLB?

      I don’t think the end of his pitching is anywhere near. If he reaches FA, he’ll definitely find a team who supports him on both sides of the ball.
      Split personality Ohtani falls down my rankings. ‘Batter only’ would still be top 15 overall, and ‘Pitcher only’ would probably be around Manoah. So back end 40s overall. Thanks for the idea to start incorporating this into my updates!

    Spencer Jones is listed at 28 years old? Should be 21 unless there are two Spencer Jones NYY OF

      Dang, good catch. I use xlookup on my personal spreadsheet for ages and tried to double-check the duplicate names. This slipped past for now but is fixed for future!

    Jack Leiter cant crack the top 500? Dang.

      To be fair, he was close to making the list – he was my highest-rank pitching prospect to not get included. But yeah, I’m currently low on him after the blah debut season. Over 40% of his pitches missed the strike zone, and his famed fastball did not have the same effect in pro ball as it did in college. In dynasty baseball, pitching prospects can be a necessary evil – but I’d stay away from Leiter in virtually all formats at this point.
