Stuff+ Sparks: 2026 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper Starters

RotoBaller uses Stuff+, Location+, and Pitching+ metrics to identify 2025 starters who flashed elite stuff but underperformed, then highlights 2026 sleeper breakout candidates likely to be available later in drafts: Cam Schlittler (big fastball, room to harness third pitch), Ryan Pepiot (high-movement fastball with upside but slider needs work), Sandy Alcantara (post-TJ rebound potential with strong second half), Drew Rasmussen (high floor with a nasty cutter, potential for more strikeouts), Shane Baz (big stuff, needs a more consistent fourth pitch after a mid-season move), and Jack Leiter (big room for improvement with midseason adjustments). These pitchers offer upside in dynasty/redraft leagues for those chasing late-draft gains based on Stuff+ trends.

The running back position in fantasy football has evolved into a committee approach, with smaller backs who can receive becoming increasingly valuable. Liz Loza recommends an anchor-RB strategy, selecting a running back in the first or second round, waiting until the RB "dead zone" to select an RB2, and drafting an RB3 near the double-digit rounds. The top RBs for 2023 include Christian McCaffrey, Austin Ekeler, Saquon Barkley, Jonathan Taylor, Bijan Robinson, Josh Jacobs, and Derrick Henry. Potential breakouts include James Cook, Rachaad White, and Devon Achane, while concerns surround players returning from injury such as Javonte Williams and Breece Hall.
