Tier 1

1) 1) (1) (1) (1) (1) Shohei Ohtani LAA, RHP/DH, 28.3 – M-V-P … M-V-P … M-V-P (I actually don’t have a strong opinion on it as Judge’s season is insane too. I just can’t seem to care about Hall of Fame and End of Season award debates)

Tier 2

2) (4) (4) (6) (22) (21) Julio Rodriguez SEA, OF, 21.8 – Considering Soto’s weak finish, Acuna’s knee, and Tatis’ everything, I’m not sure there is much of an argument against Julio being the 2nd best dynasty asset in the game. Lack of steals in the 2nd half is the only quibble

3) (2) (2) (2) (3) (3) Ronald Acuna Jr. ATL, OF, 24.9 – Only 13 homers in 107 games but he should be much better as he gets further away from the knee injury

4) (5) (8) (8) (7) (15) Yordan Alvarez HOU, OF, 25.3 – Finishing strong with a 1.370 OPS in 12 September games

5) (3) (3) (3) (2) (2) Juan Soto SDP, OF, 23.11 – .752 OPS in 38 games with San Diego. 90.8 MPH EV is down 2.2 MPH from 2021 and is a 4 year low. Having said all that, I would buy hard this off-season if you can get any discount on him at all

6) (6) (5) (7) (26) (20) Bobby Witt Jr. KC, SS, 22.3

7) (6) (5) (4) (5) Fernando Tatis Jr. SD, SS, 23.7

8) (8) (7) (4) (5) (8) Kyle Tucker HOU, OF, 25.8

9) (9) (11) (21) (24) (27) Aaron Judge NYY, OF, 30.4 – He’s having a career year in a contract year. Next year he will have that guaranteed fat contract and could be with a new team too. Call me crazy, but I’m not sure we can expect him to hit 60 every year from here on out.

10) (10) (9) (10) (11) (7) Trea Turner LAD, SS, 29.3

Shadow10) (10) (9) (16) (14) (13) Shohei Ohtani LAA, DH only/Weekly Leagues, 27.10

11) (11) (10) (9) (6) (4) Vladimir Guerrero Jr. TOR, 1B, 23.7 – 8 steals is a career high by far

12) (12) (13) (15) (13) (13) Bryce Harper PHI, OF, 29.8 – Hasn’t rounded into form yet returning from injury with a .755 OPS in 19 games. Zero worries long term

13) (13) (12) (11) (12) (12) Jose Ramirez CLE, 3B, 29.10 

14) (15) 16) (20) (35) (69) Shane McClanahan TBR, LHP, 25.4 – Returned from a shoulder impingement and looked like his usual dominant self in his first start back

15) (17) (36) (37) (32) (34) Jacob deGrom NYM, RHP, 34.1 – 86/4 K/BB in 54.1 IP … enough said

16) (15) (18) (16) (14) Rafael Devers BOS, 3B, 25.9 – .616 OPS in his last 39 games, although he’s been heating back up with a .910 OPS in 19 September games

17) (20) (20) (22) (18) (18) Manny Machado SD, 3B, 30.0

18) (21) (21) (17) (19) (22) Mookie Betts LAD, OF, 29.9 – The off-season injury concerns proved to be overblown

19) (16) (17) (19) (17) (16) Corbin Burnes MIL, RHP, 27.9 – He’s still great, but he took a step back from his untouchable 2021

Tier 3

20) (42) (66) (112) (130) (287) Michael Harris ATL, OF, 21.6 – 1.112 OPS in his last 23 games. He’s locking in his status as a near elite dynasty asset
