Quick takeaway
These are the top 25 MLB players on AthX by projected 2026 fantasy points from AthX Engine among names that are tradeable today. We skip 60-day IL, pending IPO, suspensions, and anyone else not on the marketplace. Points use AthX Engine scoring—the same system behind dynamic pricing—not ESPN or FanGraphs rules. Use the table to pick names to research, then open each player page and trade at live prices.
Why AthX rankings are different
Other sites rank players for their games. AthX ranks for one economy: buying and selling shares.
899 projected points means 899 AthX fantasy points over a full 2026 season. AthX Engine leans on last year’s stats, age and role, team context, and longer injury history—not every hourly IL tweet. Share prices still move with games, pace, and trading (dynamic pricing).
Dividends: Holding shares can pay dividends when players produce. Steady playing time and big ceilings often matter most for long-term holders.

Where this data comes from
Ranks reflect AthX Engine projections and live AthX marketplace data as of March 24, 2026. “Vs 2025” compares this season’s projection to 2025 AthX fantasy totals—who we think steps up or cools off. Signal (Strong Buy, Buy, Hold, Caution) is a short label, not a promise of profit.
Everyone listed is on the active roster, not on the 60-day IL, and tradeable on the marketplace. If a star is missing, they may be IPO, suspended, or otherwise not offered. This table is who you can trade today, not every name AthX Engine could rank on paper.

Top five names (quick take)
1. Shohei Ohtani
899 projected points and +22% vs 2025 on AthX. We expect big two-way value and a full-time bat in a strong Dodgers lineup. Dividends: how it works. Player page: Shohei Ohtani.
2. Tarik Skubal
546 points and −6% vs last year—still a Hold. After a huge year, we trim the ceiling a bit so the forecast stays fair. He still looks like a true ace for Detroit. Profile: Tarik Skubal.
3. Jose Ramirez
545 points and +2% vs last year—stable star at third. He wins on playing time and steady stats, not hype. Profile: Jose Ramirez.
4. Garrett Crochet
545 vs 308 last year (+77%)—Strong Buy if he stays healthy as a starter. Big jumps can mean wild price swings—you trade your own view. Profile: Garrett Crochet.
5. Aaron Judge
541 points and −7% vs last year—still top five in our system. We already expect a small step back from a monster season. Hold is fair. Profile: Aaron Judge.
How AthX Engine builds these numbers
Season projections come from last year’s performance, age and role, team fit, and injury history—all inside AthX Engine. A short IL stay does not by itself change the season-long number you see here; that updates when we run a full projection refresh. Scoring matches what counts in real games. Share prices add pace, volume, and trading on top (dynamic pricing). Other sites rank for their games—AthX ranks for AthX trading.
FAQ
How often is this list updated?
AthX Engine refreshes projections when we run an update (for example after big stat or roster news). This post uses numbers from March 24, 2026. For live eligibility and prices, use the marketplace.
What happens if a player goes on IL?
60-day IL: they leave the active marketplace, so they are not on this tradeable list. Short IL (e.g. 10-day): that does not by itself change the season-long projection you see here—AthX Engine updates on a full projection pass, not on every roster move. Prices can still move with games and pace. Always check the player page before you trade.
Are these fantasy points the same as AthX share price?
No. This table is projected fantasy points for the season. Share price follows dynamic pricing: performance pace, games, trading, and platform rules.
What do Buy, Sell, and Hold mean here?
Labels for this article only—momentum vs last year’s AthX total, not a buy/sell recommendation and not financial advice.
Can I trade these players on mobile?
Yes—download the AthX Android app.
Where do I sign up for the April 5 promo?
Create your account before the deadline.
Why is a well-known player missing from the top 25?
They may be 60-day IL, suspended, stuck in a pending IPO, or otherwise not offered on the marketplace—even if AthX Engine would still rank them high on paper. This list is who can trade today.
