Description

Philadelphia Phillies fantasy baseball rankings face major shakeup. Is Bryce Harper still worth a top-24 pick, or has the first baseman fallen behind Pete Alonso and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.?

Matthew breaks down the Phillies' 2026 fantasy outlook, questioning whether Harper's counting stats justify his draft position despite playing on a loaded lineup. The analysis covers Trey Turner's concerning power regression after just 9 home runs, Kyle Schwarber's contract-year explosion and free agency landing spots, and critical evaluations of Bryson Stott and J.T. Realmuto.

The pitching staff gets scrutinized with deep statistical breakdowns on Christopher Sanchez's breakout sustainability, Jesus Luzardo's elite underlying metrics, Ranger Suarez's reliability, Zack Wheeler's consistency, and why Aaron Nola might be completely washed. Key metrics include barrel percentage, hard contact rates, FIP, xERA, and ground ball percentages that reveal which Phillies are fantasy gold and which are draft-day traps.

Discover which Philadelphia players deserve roster spots and which ones to avoid completely in your 2026 fantasy baseball drafts.
