Early spring training has highlighted several players whose fantasy and trading value is trending up heading into Opening Day 2026. On AthX, dynamic pricing reflects performance and role—these names are getting attention as potential value plays.
Mookie Betts (Dodgers)
Mookie Betts had a down 2025 (.258, illness and injury) but looks healthy in camp. Projections point to a rebound: roughly 24 HR, 95 RBI, and a .275 average. Kyle Tucker’s addition in Los Angeles gives the lineup more protection. Betts’ NFBC ADP (~56) suggests he’s being drafted later than his ceiling; on AthX, his share price can move as the market prices in a bounce-back.
Austin Riley (Braves)
Austin Riley continues to produce when healthy; spring has reinforced his power and consistency. Durability is the main question, but when he’s in the lineup he’s a bankable 3B. For AthX, he’s a mid-tier cornerstone with upside if he stays on the field.
