The Unstoppable Force: Shohei Ohtani Leads the Pack in 2025 Fantasy Rankings
As we gaze into the crystal ball, predicting the top performers for the 2025 fantasy season, one name stands tall above the rest: Shohei Ohtani. The Los Angeles Dodgers’ dynamic slugger has etched his name in the record books, becoming the first player to surpass 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a single season. While it’s uncertain whether he’ll maintain this incredible pace, Ohtani’s versatility and potential make him the undisputed top pick for 2025 drafts.
Rounding out the top five are Bobby Witt Jr., Aaron Judge, Jose Ramirez, and Gunnar Henderson, all of whom have demonstrated remarkable consistency and power. Juan Soto, Elly De La Cruz, and Mookie Betts follow closely, each boasting impressive statistics and potential for further growth.
As we delve deeper into the rankings, Francisco Lindor, Yordan Alvarez, and Fernando Tatis Jr. emerge as top power-speed options, while Corbin Carroll and Julio Rodriguez showcase their impressive rebound seasons. The first base trio of Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Bryce Harper, and Freddie Freeman offers a wealth of talent, with Guerrero’s youth and potential giving him an edge.
Tarik Skubal, Zack Wheeler, and Paul Skenes lead the pitching pack, with Skubal’s impressive 2024 campaign and Wheeler’s track record in Philadelphia making them top targets. Rafael Devers, Manny Machado, and Willy Adames provide consistency at the hot corner, while “The Jacksons” – Jackson Merrill and Jackson Chourio – offer five-category production as rookies.
The latter half of the rankings features a mix of established stars and rising talents, including Corbin Burnes, Logan Gilbert, and Dylan Cease on the mound, and Ketel Marte, Jose Altuve, and Corey Seager in the infield. Brent Rooker, Marcell Ozuna, and Anthony Santander provide power-hitting options, while Logan Webb, Aaron Nola, and Spencer Strider offer safe, reliable innings on the mound.
Rounding out the top 50 are Pete Alonso, Matt Olson, and Austin Riley, providing safe power from proven players, and William Contreras, a catcher who really hits, and Emmanuel Clase, a relief pitcher who earns a ton of saves every season.
