TRENT SEVERINO
NBL
97.2
-
Through his creative pitch mix and power at the plate, Trent Severino has firmly established himself as the top player in Blitzball. He has defeated Adam Knudsen, the No. 2 ranked player, in back to back 1v1 Championships, solidifying his place at the top of the game. Trent's rising slider is widely regarded as one of the most unhittable pitches in Blitzball, and his deep arsenal makes him a threat in any matchup. Combined with his elite offensive production, he embodies what many consider the complete Blitzball player. Throughout his career, he has found success with KCBL, and captured a 2023 Como Blitzball Championship with the Riptides. Known as the most outspoken player in Blitzball, some believe his relentless confidence and trash talk have played a role in helping him maintain the No. 1 ranking.

JACK BRESNAHAN
NBL/GAINESVILLE
93.5
+3
When discussing the top leaders in Blitzball, Jack Bresnahan's name is always part of the conversation. He built the Gainesville Blitzball League from the ground up and has consistently delivered in some of the sport's biggest moments. Known primarily for his elite pitching, Jack also possesses a knack for coming through in clutch situations, helping keep Gainesville competitive in close games. His rising fastball starts from a low release point, making it especially deceptive, while his slider ranks among the best in Blitzball. What truly sets Jack apart on the mound is his command of the strike zone. Time and time again, he seems to hit his spots when his team needs a crucial out. After earning Silver Slugger honors at the 2026 Blitzball World Series, Jack climbed to a career high No. 2 ranking.

Kollin burst onto the scene after his dominant run in Jomboy Media’s Blitzball Battle 4 in 2024, where he swept MVP, Cy Young, and the Championship. Since then, he has only kept climbing. After joining the Ducks in the Como Blitzball League, Kollin immediately proved he could hang with the best. Featuring a simple two-pitch repertoire with the submarine screwball and submarine rising slider, he always keeps hitters guessing. After earning back-to-back Cy Young and MVP honors at the Blitzball World Series, Kollin has climbed to a career-high No. 3 ranking.

JOEY DIMEO
NBL
93.2
+2
Since joining the Steamrollers in 2020, Joey DiMeo has steadily built one of the most accomplished résumés in Blitzball. His consistent yet unorthodox pitching style has made him a perennial threat on the mound, earning him a Blitzball World Series Cy Young Award in 2023 and a runner-up finish in 2024. Joey is also the only player in Blitzball history to win back-to-back World Series titles with two different teams, first with KC and then with Como. His dominant victory over Jack Doyle in the Warehouse propelled him into the top four and secured a spot in the 1v1 Championship. While his results against the game's elite have been inconsistent since then, Joey added another major accomplishment in 2026 by earning Blitzball World Series Cy Young honors once again, helping him climb to No. 4 in the rankings.

SAMMY REAZER
NBL
93.1
-1
Sammy Reazer has developed into one of the most dangerous hitters in Blitzball since breaking out in the Como Blitzball League in 2021. That season, he emerged as a star for the Badgers, a team widely considered one of the greatest in Como Blitzball history. Sammy later launched his own franchise with the Mustangs, quickly becoming a fan favorite and one of the league's most recognizable players. His success stems from elite bat to ball skills and a bulldog mentality on the mound that allows him to compete in any matchup. For years, Sammy has been regarded as one of the best hitters in Blitzball, a reputation that was further strengthened when the Como Captains traveled to the Warehouse and captured the Blitzball Battle 3 title. Following a loss to Trent Severino and his run with Montezuma at the Blitzball World Series, Sammy slipped slightly in the rankings but remains one of the sport's premier players.

CADEN SARTAIN
NBL/COMO
92.8
-3
When a big hit is needed, few players are more trusted than Caden Sartain. The tall left handed hitter has built a reputation for delivering in clutch moments, coming through time and time again in some of Blitzball's biggest situations. While his pitching has steadily improved throughout his career, it is his offensive production that truly sets him apart. Caden's aggressive approach at the plate makes it extremely difficult for strikes to get past him, turning nearly every at bat into a challenge for opposing pitchers. In 2025, he put together one of the most dominant seasons in Como Blitzball League history, earning MVP honors while leading his team to the championship. Entering the title game, he was hitting .591 with 5 home runs and a 0.00 ERA. After a decade of success, Caden is widely regarded as the greatest player in Como Blitzball history. With his sights now set on the National Blitzball League, he continues to chase new accomplishments. Following a disappointing performance at the 2026 Blitzball World Series, Caden slipped three spots in the rankings.

HENRY JUSTICE
TENNESSEE
91.6
+8
One of the youngest rising stars in the rankings, Henry Justice has produced some of the most impressive pitching performances Blitzball has seen in recent years. His arsenal is unmatched, and he continues to push the limits of what can be done with a Blitzball. The 2026 Blitzball World Series with Dooglas Blitzball served as his true breakout tournament, as he dominated on the mound and delivered several jaw dropping home runs at the plate. For years, the Blitzball community has talked about Henry's immense potential, and in 2026 he finally put it on full display. His combination of electric pitching and game changing power has propelled him all the way up to No. 7 in the rankings.
Accolades:
2026 Blitzball World Series Champion

WILLIAM ECKSTEIN
DOOGLAS
91.1
+12
William Eckstein is one of the premier two way players in Blitzball and serves as the commissioner of the Dooglas Blitzball League in Wisconsin. He put together a remarkable 2025 season, hitting .710 with 31 RBIs and 8 home runs while continuing to establish himself as a dominant presence on both sides of the game. On the mound, Eckstein features a deep arsenal of pitches, highlighted by a devastating slider that has produced countless highlight worthy moments throughout his career. His debut at the 2026 Blitzball World Series was nothing short of spectacular. As the leader of the Dooglas squad that captured the championship, he delivered standout performances both at the plate and on the mound, earning runner up honors for the 2026 BWS MVP Award. With his impressive skill set and continued success on the biggest stages, Eckstein has firmly established himself as one of the rising contenders in the rankings.

JACK DOYLE
WAREHOUSE
89.8
-1
We Got Ice’s Jack Doyle has been the pride of the Jomboy Media Warehouse since its first video was released in February 2022. The pitching specialist features a wide range of arm angles and pitches to fool batters, which has led Doyle to three Blitzball Battle Cy Young awards, including a recent Cy Young in Blitzball Battle 7. While Jack’s pitching is undoubtedly his calling card, his batting has come alive in the past year. Doyle constantly varies pitching techniques to mess with the hitter’s eye and timing, which he calls “goofs and gaffs.” He recently lost to #6 Joey DiMeo in blowout fashion in a 2025 1v1, dropping him to #9 in the rankings. This doesn’t take away from all he has accomplished in the Warehouse, and he can move back up if he proves himself again. Doyle’s best performance to date remains Blitzball Battle 6, where he led We Got Ice to their first-ever Blitzball banner while posting a staggering .864 batting average.

Blitzball Battle 6 Champion

JOHN CASTRO
NBL
89.5
-3
John Castro holds the record for the highest debut ranking ever earned by a previously unranked player, a testament to the impact he made during Swisher Blitzball's championship run at the 2025 Blitzball World Series. He played a pivotal role in securing the league's first World Series title, delivering one of the most memorable moments in tournament history with a walk off home run in extra innings against Gainesville Blitzball. Castro does most of his damage on the mound, where he features one of the best curveballs in Blitzball along with a reliable screwball that consistently finds the strike zone. He also took major strides as a hitter throughout 2025, becoming a more complete player on both sides of the game. After being selected first overall by the Redbirds in the National Blitzball League Draft, Castro now has the opportunity to further elevate his ranking while competing against the sport's top talent on a regular basis.

HUDSON BORGMEYER
NBL/COMO
86.7
+2
Since being named captain of the Riptides in 2022, Hudson Borgmeyer has developed into one of the most dependable players in Blitzball. On the mound, he relies on his signature screwball and becomes especially dangerous when his knuckle drop is working, a pitch that can completely fall off the table and leave hitters guessing. At the plate, Hudson is one of the game's premier power hitters, embracing a home run or nothing approach every time he steps into the batter's box. While his strikeout rate remains high, the damage he does when he connects more than makes up for it, making him one of the most feared hitters in Blitzball. During the 2026 Blitzball World Series, Hudson was Como's top performer on both sides of the ball and consistently delivered in key moments. To take the next step and join the sport's elite tier, he will need to improve the consistency of his knuckle drop and cut down on strikeouts, but Hudson has all the talent and tools necessary to make that leap in the National Blitzball League.
Accolades:
2021 Como World Series MVP

JIMMY KNORP
NBL/WAREHOUSE

-
Jimmy Knorp has become the face of the Warehouse Woogas and one of the most consistent hitters in Blitzball. He earned the Blitzball Battle 4 Wall Breaker Award after posting a remarkable .700 batting average and helping lead the Woogas to a semifinal appearance. In 2025, he added another accomplishment to his résumé by helping the Woogas capture the Blitzball Battle 7 championship. While his bat remains his greatest strength, Jimmy has also expanded his game on the mound, introducing a slider that has fooled hitters throughout the season and helped him secure a thrilling 1v1 victory over Como Blitzball's Hudson Borgmeyer. Following a strong offensive showing at the 2026 Blitzball World Series, Jimmy proved he can compete with the very best hitters in the sport. As he continues to develop his pitching and take on a larger role on the mound, he will look to elevate his game even further with the Ducks in the National Blitzball League.
Accolades:
Blitzball Battle 7 Champion

LORENZO LEW
NBL
84.9
-3
Lorenzo Lew is the definition of a complete player. He excels at the plate, on the mound, in the field, and combines it all with outstanding plate discipline and a high baseball IQ. Those qualities make him one of the most difficult players in Blitzball to face in a one on one setting. Lorenzo has built an impressive résumé in 1v1 competition, earning victories over Sammy Reazer, Caden Sartain, Mike Diehl, and Kirkland Lalance. Despite his success in that format, he is still searching for a signature breakthrough performance on the tournament stage. The 2026 Blitzball World Series did not quite reflect the level of play many have come to expect from him, but the National Blitzball League presents a new opportunity. With his well rounded skill set and proven talent, Lorenzo has all the tools needed to climb higher in the rankings and establish himself among the game's elite.

MATT FOSTER
NBL
84.8
+10
Matt Foster was once considered one of the top players in Blitzball, earning a place inside the top 10 when the Top 25 Rankings were first introduced. However, after an 80 mph speed limit was implemented, he struggled to find the same level of consistency on the mound. While his pitching results fluctuated, his bat remained a reliable weapon and helped keep him competitive. Those struggles caused Matt to fall as low as No. 24 in the rankings, but the 2026 Blitzball World Series proved to be a turning point in his career. After being drafted by Warehouse, he emerged as one of the tournament's most dependable contributors on both the mound and at the plate, playing a key role throughout the event. His breakout performance fueled a dramatic rise of 10 spots, moving him all the way up to No. 14 in the rankings. Consistency has always been the biggest question surrounding Matt Foster, but after being traded to the Mustangs, he will have a new opportunity to prove he belongs among the elite players in Blitzball as he enters the National Blitzball League.
Accolades:
2024 BWS Champion

KYLE YODER
NBL/MONTEZUMA
83.6
+3
Kyle Yoder has been a driving force behind Montezuma's rise as a Blitzball league and has played a major role in its early success. As commissioner, he has embraced a leadership role while consistently producing at a high level on the field. Kyle is an elite hitter and a dependable pitcher, combining a powerful bat with excellent command of his fastball and slider. Few players possess such a complete skill set, making it difficult to identify any true weakness in his game. A victory over Kirkland Lalance originally earned him a spot in the Top 25 Rankings, but since then he has firmly established himself as one of the most consistent players in Blitzball. At the 2026 Blitzball World Series, Kyle was the standout performer for Montezuma, serving as both the team's primary pitcher and one of its most productive hitters throughout the tournament. After being drafted by the Mustangs in the National Blitzball League, he now has an opportunity to showcase his talents on the biggest stage and continue climbing the rankings.

KIRKLAND LALANCE
TENNESSEE
83.4
+3
Kirkland LaLance is the youngest ranked player in Blitzball, yet he has already established himself as one of the sport's most exciting talents. Armed with a fastball that can reach 102 MPH and a collection of devastating off speed pitches, Kirkland possesses some of the most electric stuff in the game. He has dominated competition in the Tennessee Blitzball League and carried that success onto the national stage at the 2026 Blitzball World Series. In his tournament debut, he helped lead Tennessee to a semifinal appearance while producing numerous highlight worthy moments with both his overpowering pitching and impressive power at the plate. Despite already achieving significant success at such a young age, many believe he is only scratching the surface of his potential. If his development continues at this pace, Kirkland has all the tools necessary to one day become the No. 1 player in Blitzball.

DAVID DRZEWICKI
NBL/GAINESVILLE
83.1
-6
Don't pitch to Drez. David Drzewicki has established himself as one of the most feared hitters in Blitzball and serves as a key piece of Gainesville's powerhouse trio. After launching a tournament record 9 home runs at the 2024 Columns Classic, he cemented his reputation as one of the premier power hitters in the sport. Drzewicki has been a major reason why Gainesville Blitzball has remained one of the most consistent teams in the game, repeatedly delivering clutch hits in the biggest moments. His rise from unranked player to as high as No. 11 in the rankings highlights just how impactful his bat has been over the years. While other players have since passed him due in part to a more complete pitching arsenal, there is no question about what Drez brings to the plate. If he can develop into a reliable arm for the Riptides in the National Blitzball League, he has all the tools necessary to climb back up the rankings and remind everyone why he deserves to be a top ranked player in Blitzball.

9 Home Runs at Columns Classic (Tournament Record)

TREVOR PLOUFFE
WAREHOUSE
80.4
-2
If Trevor Plouffe's MLB career was not already proof of his talent, his success in Blitzball has removed any remaining doubt. Coach Trev has demonstrated elite bat control and quickly became one of the most impactful players in the Warehouse. With Plouffe leading the way, Forgotten Rotten emerged as one of the biggest threats in the league and a constant challenge for opposing teams. On the Warehouse’s biggest stage, he consistently delivered, pairing a nearly unhittable slider with a calm and disciplined approach at the plate that frustrated opposing pitchers. While Plouffe's résumé remains one of the strongest in the sport, he has not captured a Blitzball Battle championship since 2022. As the competition around him has continued to improve, he has slipped to No. 18 in the rankings, though his experience and skill still make him a dangerous opponent for anyone he faces.

Blitzball Battle 1 Champion

PATRICK JACOB
NBL/GAINESVILLE
80.1
-2
After capturing the 2024 Blitzball World Series MVP Award, Gainesville Blitzball leader Patrick Jacob quickly climbed into the upper tier of the rankings. He is the type of pitcher every hitter dreads facing, thanks to a deep and unpredictable arsenal that includes a curveball, knuckle drop, slider, and multiple fastball variations. His ability to keep hitters off balance has made him one of the toughest pitchers in the game to solve. Jacob also contributes at the plate, using a quick and controlled swing to consistently put the ball in play and create offense. When he is commanding the strike zone, he is capable of performing at an elite level and competing with any pitcher in Blitzball. However, recent inconsistency on the mound has caused him to slide from a career high ranking of No. 6 down to No. 19. If he can regain his command and become a more dependable arm, Patrick has the talent to be one of the best players in Blitzball.

TOMMY FELTON
GAINESVILLE
78.7
NR
Tommy Felton has established himself as one of the most reliable strike throwers in Blitzball and an essential piece of the Gainesville Blitzball roster. His ability to consistently fill up the strike zone makes him a trusted option on the mound whenever Gainesville needs outs. Tommy's game is built around a devastating slider that ranks among the best in Blitzball and pairs perfectly with his fastball to keep hitters guessing. His effectiveness was evident during both the 2025 and 2026 Blitzball World Series, where he emerged as one of Gainesville's most dependable pitchers and played a key role in the team's success. This is Tommy's first appearance in the Top 25 Blitzball Player Rankings, but it likely will not be his last. As he continues to gain experience against elite competition and develops his offensive game, he has the potential to climb even higher and enter the Top 10 conversation.

MIKE DIEHL
NBL/BOMBERS
78.5
-
Mike Diehl has built a résumé that all but guarantees him a place in any future Blitzball Hall of Fame discussion. As one of the most accomplished players in Bombers Blitzball League history, he has enjoyed a long and successful career defined by dominant pitching, clutch hitting, and championship success. Diehl played a major role in leading the Bombers to multiple Blitzball World Series titles, including a legendary performance in 2021 when he launched a towering home run before delivering a walk off double to secure the leagues' second championship. While he may not be quite as dominant as he was during his peak years, Mike has remained a productive and respected competitor. Now, after being selected by the Crushers in the National Blitzball League, he will have the opportunity to prove he can still compete with the sport's best and climb back into the conversation among Blitzball's top ranked players.

DREW DAVIS
WAREHOUSE
76.8
-
Drew Davis has become one of the most recognizable and entertaining players in Blitzball, known for his signature cowboy hat in the Warehouse and his success competing in the Como Blitzball League. Early in his career, there were questions about whether his game would translate outside of the Warehouse environment, but he quickly put those doubts to rest with strong performances in Como. In 2025, Drew hit .435 with 3 home runs and played a key role in helping the Crushers capture a league championship. He brings a confident presence to the field and does most of his damage at the plate, where his offensive production has made him a consistent threat. While the 2026 Blitzball World Series did not go as planned and he struggled to make a major impact, Drew remains one of the top competitors in the Warehouse Games. As he looks ahead, he will aim to bounce back and solidify his place among Blitzball's Top 25 players.

2025 Como Blitzball League Champion

JORDAN SCHROEDER
NBL
76.7
+2
Jordan Schroeder has been a consistent presence on the tournament scene since 2021, but his breakout performance came at the 2023 Blitzball World Series, where he allowed just one run throughout the entire tournament. His riser and slider combination left hitters frozen at the plate and showcased just how difficult he can be to face on the mound. Those pitches are only part of a well rounded arsenal that has made him one of the more dependable pitchers in Blitzball. Offensively, Jordan's speed and disciplined approach at the plate make him a constant threat to reach base and create scoring opportunities. As a key contributor to Swisher Blitzball's 2025 World Series Championship run, he has continued to prove his value year after year through his consistency and versatility. After securing a 1v1 victory over Mason Senkbeil, Jordan successfully defended his place in the Top 25 Rankings. With an expanded opportunity awaiting him on the Steamrollers in the National Blitzball League, he will now have a chance to take another step forward and climb even higher in the rankings.

MATTHEW WEAVER
NBL/MONTEZUMA
76.6
-10
Matthew Weaver has quickly become one of the players to watch in Blitzball. Competing in the Montezuma Blitzball League, Georgia's most competitive league, he helped lead the Aztecs to a championship while emerging as the team's top performer. During the 2025 season, Weaver hit an impressive .556 with 6 home runs, establishing himself as one of the league's premier players. On the mound, he features a deep pitching arsenal highlighted by a devastating knuckle drop and finished the season with a 2.50 ERA. Although his debut at the 2026 Blitzball World Series did not provide many opportunities to showcase his pitching ability, the limited role contributed to a 10 spot drop in the rankings, falling to No. 24. Despite the setback, Weaver possesses all the tools necessary to become a major force in Blitzball. Now joining the Vipers in the National Blitzball League, he is expected to serve as the No. 2 arm behind top ranked player Trent Severino. If he can capitalize on that opportunity and prove himself on the biggest stage, a rapid climb back into the Top 15 could be well within reach.

COOPER CARLEY

Cooper Carley, the ace from Kansas City, made an immediate impact on the Blitzball scene in 2024 by dominating on the mound at the Blitzball World Series and helping KC capture its first championship. He also enjoyed two successful seasons with the Crushers in the Como Blitzball League, including playing a key role in their 2025 championship run. Widely regarded as the most accurate pitcher in Blitzball, Cooper's command is second to none. In 2025, he walked just one batter in 45 at bats while posting a 1.80 ERA and recording 21 strikeouts. His ability to consistently pound the strike zone makes him one of the toughest pitchers in the sport to face. If Cooper can continue to develop offensively and provide more production at the plate, he has the potential to make a significant climb up the rankings.
