Weekly Hitter Rankings: Top Fantasy Baseball Batters to Target

By:

April 18, 2026

It's a marathon, not a sprint... literally. Monday is Patriots Day in Boston, so that means an early 11:00 AM start at Fenway Park between the Red Sox and Tigers. Don't get mad at me - I'm just the messenger.

Those two clubs are two of eight on seven games. No one's at home for all seven, though the Phillies will be on the road to fill their full week.

The Diamondbacks and Padres have a rare Friday off, giving them each five contests.

Be sure to pop back Sunday night for the individual hitter rankings.
