2026 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: Value Picks at Every Position

Published 14 hours ago
Description

Should you draft Francisco Alvarez at pick 221 after injuries derailed his breakout? Is Luis Robert Jr. a league-winning steal in the Mets lineup? Joe Bond, AJ Applegarth, and Corey Pieper break down 2026 fantasy baseball sleepers at every position—value targets outside the top 150 who can smash their ADP.

The guys debate late-round steals like Carter Jensen (95.4 mph exit velo tied with Aaron Judge), Andrew Vaughn after his .308 Milwaukee breakout, and Matt McLain batting second for the Reds. Plus: Max Muncy's vision correction unlocked 18 homers in half a season, Dansby Swanson's boring-but-reliable 20/15 upside at pick 148, and why Chris Bubic at pick 200+ is absurd value compared to Spencer Strider at 100.

Key debates:

  • Francisco Alvarez: Can he finally stay healthy and unlock 30-homer upside?
  • Luis Robert Jr. vs injury concerns: 30/30 potential or bust?
  • Matt McLain batting second: Real breakout or batting average drain?
  • Shota Imanaga's velocity up 3 mph: Spring training noise or legit bounce-back?

Plus: Joe loves Bryan Reynolds (shocking no one), AJ goes all-in on Mets players, and Corey breaks down why Carter Jensen should catch full-time over Salvy Perez.
