On March 11th, here's the latest surrounding the New York Mets. The New York Mets head into the 2026 fantasy baseball season with a blend of proven stars and high upside players that could shake up. Drafts. Elite Outfielder Juan Soto tops the list at number five average draft position, fresh off career highs in home runs and steels. Catchers like Francisco Alvarez at 183 ADP and Outfielder Lewis Robert at 111 offer rebound potential, wow prospects Carson Benjay and pitcher Nolan McLean roundout intriguing late picks Soto surprise everyone last year by leading the national league in stolen bases with 38 while smashing 43 homers and driving in. Over 100 runs for the third straight season. His power surge came with elite contact skills and hard hit rates though he might not repeat those steels. Still, projections point at 35 homers 100 ribbies and 20 swipes in a primage campaign. Fantasy managers are buzzing about Alvarez after injury plague years

limited his playing time but he flashed serious power with 24 homers. In just 371 at bats across levels last season, Robert faces similar health questions after missing over half his gains yet his speed and tools hint at a 30-30 ceiling if he stays on the field. Both are risky but could pay off big and deeper leagues. Meanwhile, Benjay the 19th overall pick from 2024 brings five tool promise with strong minor league numbers and a spot near the top of the meds line up soon. McLean shifted to full-time pitching and dominated late last year with a sub-3 ERA and upper minors setting up for potential number two or three starter roll thanks to his 95 mile per hour fastball. Overall, the meds give drafters a chance to balance sure fire production from Soto with value bets on these rebounders and rookies. At current prices, they look primed to outperform, especially of health holds for the injury prone names. Keep an eye on rising ADPs this spring. This episode is proudly sponsored by our
