GIVE THEM THE CREDIT THEY DESERVE!!!! Remember this is now a bit larger sample size than those weekly top 10 player lists that I also make... Top players for a whole month is a "bit larger" sample size.... But still not as large as season long numbers or even larger sample size is to combine with previous season stats.... I have given some extra EE tags to players who have been great all season... Remember if they didn't make the list it doesn't mean they suck.... I could have made this list go to 250 deep... Players ranked in the 500-800 range yeah then maybe you should worry a bit.... Remember that baseball has MANY PLAYERS so being ranked lower isn't that big of an issue... Happy September folks! Playoffs are here!!!! Good Luck!!!!

Thoughts?

I’ve been building Stat Line Baseball to make daily matchup research faster—current-roster history against probable starters, pitcher pitch mixes, splits and leaderboards in one place.

When a roster has little or no history against a pitcher, the pitch-mix view helps show what the offense will face and where the potential openings might be.

It’s free to use: https://www.statlinebaseball.com.

Full disclosure: this is my site. I’d genuinely appreciate feedback from fantasy players—especially on what would make it more useful for daily lineup decisions, streaming pitchers or waiver research.

Good Morning! These are the top 10s rankings from last week running from Monday to Sunday (just like the weekly matchup). Roster Percentages are based on yahoo.

Top 10 hitters:

Daylen Lile
Rafael Devers
PCA EE (Expected Excellence)
Luis Garcia Jr
Cal Raleigh (is he back?)
Tristan Peters 41% rostered
Sal Stewart (still a rookie but we starting to expect some excellence from him)
Jazz Chisolm Jr
Jackson Chourio EE
George Springer

Top 10 SP:

Zebby Matthews 34% rostered
Chris Sale EE (The very definition of expected excellence) HOF?
Michael Wacha
Jesus Luzardo
Logan Henderson
Eduardo Rodriguez
Jake Bennett
Parker Messick
Freddy Peralta
Cade Cavalli

Top 10 RP:

Josh Hader EE (Expected Excellence)
Bryan Hudson
Mason Montgomery 31% rostered
Grant Taylor
Tyler Wells
Emilio Pagan
Paul Blackburn
Victor Mederos
Bryan Baker EE
Chad Dallas
