Write-ups Update:

With the top-50 all done (links to all below), I’ve been getting a lot of requests for certain players, so I’m going to pivot into those. I know I have Vinny Pasquantino and Jordan Westburg on deck, among some others.

Best place to ask is via Twitter DM @JohnLaghezza, or my email Laghezza12@gmail.com. Hit me up anytime don’t be shy.


How To Wield The Full Power Of The Top-500

Image below, left: Click green “Filter” symbol that looks like a wi-fi icon.

Image below, right: First press “clear”. Then press “(Blanks)” - a checkmark will appear

Image below, left: Then type the position you want to isolate.
Notice when I started typing “OF”, the “Select All…” changed from 21 to 6.
Press “OK”. You can click any combination you’d like

Image below, right: Only the position you asked for will be shown, but because you pressed (Blanks), the other tiers pop up for a much better macro perspective.

Reset back to normal by clicking the green “Filter” symbol again, and “Select All 21”


Underdog Update:

  1. Ran a full Underdog update with all the new on-site ADPs, ready for upload. Available with data sheets.

  2. Moved Manaea, Stanton all injured guys way down — didn’t really punish W.Langford or H.Ramos for obliques …yet.

Instructions to upload my Underdog Ranks:

--Open “Underdog” tab on the datasheet
--Go to FILE -> DOWNLOAD -> DOWNLOAD AS .CSV
--Open underdog dot com and log in
--Go to RANKINGS -> MLB -> MLB 2025 SEASON (we do not want “MLB way too early 2025 season”)
--First go to LIMITS (top right, next to rankings tab) and set all three to 7 (this will keep you from over-drafting any position if you get auto'd)
--Click RANKINGS -> CSV UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD -> CSV UPLOAD
--Choose the file of mine you saved to begin with and click SAVE

That’s it -- as new versions pop up, just repeat the process (or you can shift on your own, then SAVE). Let me know if you have any issues…
