End-gamers, 2026
Mar 16 2026
Let's continue our end-game theme by moving on to hitters who could provide significant value to you late in your drafts or for a token bid.
There is a lot of profit to be found in end-game hitting speculations, especially if you target those with emerging or hidden skills.
Keeping in mind that an end-game target in one league might require a heavy investment in another, here we'll present a large cross-section of guys in each league who could generate a lot of profit for you in 2026.
Let's identify potential end-game targets by looking at batters with a 300+ ADP who showed the highest average exit velocity (EV) in 2025 (min 50 PA):
| Player | Pos | Lg | ADP | bb% | ct% | Eye | SwK% | EV |
| Acosta, Maximo | SS | NL | 750 | 9% | 68% | 0.35 | 10.0% | 93.5 |
| Sanchez, Gary | C | NL | 710 | 3% | 70% |
