Plus
- Keep #76 on the 300. Tradable, not a 1.01.
- On 23 boards — not a one-list darling.
Minus
- Board spread is 70 ranks. You are betting with one camp, not a unanimous tape.
BaseBallKeep Take
Michael Busch is #76 on BaseBallKeep's overall dynasty 300, a 23-source mix anchored by RotoGraphs (Aug 14) and The Dynasty Guru points list (Aug 10). 1B for CHC. Lineup #59. Rest-of-season redraft #76. MLB since 2023. From Inver Grove Heights / USA. Bats L, throws R.
BK Value on this rank is 1,597. Same decaying curve as football: 12,000 at 1.01, a late first a fraction of that. If someone is asking for two firsts, run the calculator. 2026 line: .242 / 15 HR / 2 SB / .735 OPS in 126 games.
The 23-board average is 78.0 on 23 lists that actually ranked him — unranked sources are skipped, never treated as 999. High 49, low 119.
Dynasty pays the next five years. Redraft pays September. If those two ranks diverge, that is the instruction: hold the kid or cash the veteran.
Flags fly forever. We will refresh this file with The Keep. September baseball is a proving ground, not a coronation.
