Fantasy Baseball: 'My Guys' — the players Scott Pianowski has selected in every 2026 draft

I’m about 80% through my fantasy baseball draft season for 2026 . We’re deep enough that discussing my commonly-rostered players is an interesting piece. Understand that it’s hard to have several shares of early-round players, since that would require a specific landing of draft slots.

Be that as it may, here is a list of guys I’ve been happy to select, for various reasons. [ Draft your Yahoo Fantasy Baseball team for the 2026 MLB Season ] You’ll agree with some, disagree with some, be unsure on some others — and that’s cool, because that’s why we have a game. 2B Brice Turang, Brewers 1B Andrew Vaughn, Brewers SP Jacob Misiorowski, Brewers SP Logan Henderson, Brewers Milwaukee has turned into what the Rays used to be, a lower-market team that understands how to get the most for its dollar.

A lot of the Milwaukee advantages are on the margins, building an air-tight defense and a lineup filled with guys who do a lot of things well. I’m a believer in the improvement Turang showed in the second half — when the pop really kicked in — and I believe in his broad skills. Vaughn is a classic post-hype sleeper, and his stats perked up after the trade last year.

Misiorowski and Henderson are more speculative picks — and Henderson is also dinged up at the moment — but again, I want to backline this team when I can. I wish I had more shares of Jackson Chourio and Christian Yelich, too.
