The biggest update since launch has been passed to the public build of pasttheeyetest.com. Here's what changed (🧵):
The 2 names I could see the public being wrong currently are Freddy Peralta and Ryan Jeffers.
Nobody in this class are quite on Alonso or Cease's level and I don't think this level of output is feasible for any 2027 non-Skubal FA, but I think Peralta could put up 3-4 WAR and Jeffers could be a 130 wRC+ bat again.
I remember when many people yelled from the rooftops that Pete Alonso and Dylan Cease were the 2 most overpaid players of the 2026 offseason.
A year later, they both posted 5+ fWAR and were the only 2026 Free Agents to make the All-MLB 1st team.
Of the 2026 Free Agent class, they were both the best in my batting and pitching predictive models for 2025, and were both the best in actual batting and pitching production for 2026. A reminder that teams do not pay players for what they have done, but for what they will do.

Andrés Machado (NPB) is now a free agent and eligible to sign with any MLB team. He had a 20% K-BB% in Japan this year and posted a ridiculous 1.20 ERA.
He had a 34.7% K-BB% in the 2026 WBC, with some absolutely ludicrous stuff numbers. A savvy team would pick him up on a multi-year deal.
Gabriel Moreno is named to the all-MLB 1st team! A batting title and named the best catcher in baseball!

Did it get chilly in here? The Polar Bear, Pete Alonso, is MLB's best 1B for 2026, named to the All-MLB 1st team. He had a banner season in his 1st year in Birdland!
The best hitter in baseball is awarded the Edgar Martinez Award. The soon-to-be MVP Yordan Alvarez is named the best DH in baseball!
