Updated Fantasy Baseball Outfielder Rankings: Value check for the deepest position as we approach mid-May

It’s the middle of May and we’re rolling along with our Shuffle Up series. We have enough data to form some actionable opinions (in some cases), or at least educated guesses (in some other cases). Today, we look at the outfielders.

I excluded players currently on the injured list (everyone seems to have their own version of injury optimism or pessimism) and any player in the minors, with one exception (I still believe in you, Noelvi Marte). The players below are salaried and ranked as if I were entering a fresh draft tonight. What’s happened to this point is an audition, nothing more.

Don’t get hung up on the salaries in a vacuum, which are just comparison tools. Players at the same salary are considered even. Have some respectful disagreement?

That’s good, that’s why we have a game. Share your thoughts anytime on social media: catch me on Twitter/X or on Bluesky . The Big Tickets $41 Aaron Judge $33 Oneil Cruz $32 Juan Soto $31 Yordan Alvarez $31 Kyle Schwarber $29 Kyle Tucker $29 Julio Rodríguez I thought Cruz’s monster year might have some secondary stats validating things, but his walk rate has actually ticked down and his strikeout rate is up slightly.
