Depends on your league type, of course, but anything inside the top 250 is far too rich my blood. I think he has virtually no chance to actually break camp and most of the leagues I play don't have any specific spot to hold a minor leaguer so I'm not gonna stash a one-month-away-from-being-20-year-old with 21 AA gms under his belt.

I'm not afraid of the unknown, either, I took Bobby Witt Jr. at the 3/4 turn of the Main Event in 2022, but he was 22 yrs old and had 63 gms at AAA (he also had the job, of course, it was late-March so we had info)... I just think it's too early to get hyped about Konnor. It's fun to be on the next big thing, but I need more certainty. If they ink him to a deal or announce he has the role, I'll change my tune, but he's a full fade in drafts until that point

Assuming all up on Opening Day or all promoted Memorial Day Weekend who do you prefer for an OBP Keeper League?

JJ Wetherholt, Kevin McGonigle, Colt Emerson

I like 'em in the order you got 'em here! Wetherholt is a good counter to Konnor is terms of how I'm approaching things. He hasn't been named, but the 23 y/o has a muuuuuch clearer path and 47 gms at AAA.

And I know Soto essentially skipped AA (8 gms) and AAA (0), but he's a 🦄 and while Konnor may be as well, I'm not paying a top 180 pick to find out

Nl only, 5x5, 2 C keeper league. Is Dalton Rushing worth a dollar with an eye toward being able to keep him or dress

I don't mind that in an NL-only where C2 will no doubt get dicey!!

OK y'all, I gotta get going. Thanks so much for coming out. I'll have another SP rankings update ready early into March (7-10 days from now) - Check out today's big update -- https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/starting-pitcher-2026-fantasy-rankings/
