The Fantasy Baseball Trade Value Chart Excel Download
Above, you have a link to download the Excel file that is used to calculate these trade values. The breakdown is as follows. Rest-of-season projections were gathered from the good folks at FanGraphs!
Both hitter and pitcher projections came from ZiPS DC (RoS). This trade value chart was designed to value players in a traditional 5×5 category league. As such, trade values are based entirely on each player’s contributions across his five respective hitting and pitching categories. Below is a table showing how a player scores with his projections. For example, 35+ home runs earns a perfect 10-score in that category.
| HR | R | RBI | SB | AVG |
| 35=10 5=1 | 85=10 15=1 | 85=10 15=1 | 23=10 3=1 | .290=10 .210=1 |
| W | ERA | WHIP | SO | SV |
| 13=10 3=1 | 2.85=10 5=1 | 1.1=10 1.5=1 | 180=10 30=1 | 27=10 1=1 |
Players had their scores added up across their respective categories and are ranked below in a brand new fantasy baseball trade value chart for May 2023! Remember, these values are meant to compare players on a one-to-one basis. Despite their fantastic starts, don’t expect to buy a superstar like Trea Turner for a combo of Bryson Stott and Hunter Brown. That’s all for now! Good luck wheelin’ and dealin’!
