OFFICIAL BLITZBALL
PLAYER RANKINGS
AS OF JANUARY 2026
1. Trent Severino
Through his creative pitch mix and power at the plate, Trent Severino has firmly established himself as the #1 player in all of Blitzball. He has taken down Adam Knudsen (#2) in back-to-back 1v1 championships, cementing his status as the best. Trent features a rising slider that seems unhittable and a wide arsenal of pitches that is unreal, making him the ideal Blitzball player—elite both at the plate and on the mound. Over the years, he has excelled with KCBL, claimed a 2023 Como Blitzball Championship with the Riptides, and created his own Blitzball franchise, Clickbait Club, which has impressed in tournaments. Known as the most talkative player in Blitzball, some argue his trash talk has helped him maintain the #1 ranking. With all the momentum he’s built, Trent looks poised to defend his spot at the top in the 2026 Blitzball World Series. Accolades/Stats: 2025 Como Blitzball League Silver Slugger 2024 Como Blitzball League MVP 2023 Como Blitzball League Champion 2023 Como Blitzball World Series MVP 2x 1v1 Champion (2024, 2025)
2. Adam Knudsen
Adam dominated the 2025 Blitzball World Series from start to finish, earning MVP honors and leading Swisher to their first-ever championship. He’s now set to compete for the #1 ranking later this year. The flame-throwing lefty burst onto the Blitzball scene at the 2020 Blitzball World Series and has been a force in the community ever since. Knudsen is regarded as the best pitcher in Blitzball, with elite command and devastating movement. His 2-Seam and Screwball buckles right-handed hitters, and his sidearm knuckle drop helped spark a new wave of breaking pitches. At the plate, Knudsen is known as a contact hitter—but when he elevates the ball, he hits home runs in bunches. He is the most accomplished Blitzball player to date, having won nearly every major award the sport has to offer. Accolades/Stats: 3x Swisher Blitzball Champion (2020, 2021, 2022) 2021 Little Cubs Field Champion (MVP) (0.00 ERA | 0.400/5HR/13RBI) 2022 Como Blitzball Cy Young (0.42 ERA) 2x Como Blitzball World Series Champion (2022, 2024) 2025 Blitzball World Series Champion 2025 Blitzball World Series MVP
3. Caden Sartain
If you want a big hit, you call Caden Sartain. The tall lefty has been clutch in countless big situations over the years, delivering time and again. While his pitching has steadily improved, it’s his batting ability that sets him apart, with an aggressive approach that makes it nearly impossible for strikes to get by him. In 2025, Caden had a historic run in the Como Blitzball League, winning MVP and leading his team to the championship with a .591 average, 5 home runs, and a 0.00 ERA heading into the title game. After 10 years in Como Blitzball, he is widely regarded as the league’s GOAT, and now the National Blitzball League is next. From walk-off homers in the 2022 LCF semifinals to go-ahead hits in the 2023 Blitzball World Series, Caden keeps proving he belongs at the top of the rankings. Accolades/Stats: 4x Como Blitzball World Series Champion (2016, 2018, 2019, 2025) 4x Como Blitzball MVP (2018, 2020, 2021, 2025) 2023 Blitzball World Series Champion 2023 Blitzball Battle 3 Champion 2x Little Cubs Field Champion (2018, 2022)
4. Sammy Reazer
Sammy Reazer grew into an absolute force at the plate ever since 2021 in the Como Blitzball League. He broke out that year with the Badgers, widely regarded as one of the best Como Blitzball teams ever assembled. Since then, Sammy launched his own franchise with the Mustangs, quickly becoming a fan favorite among Como Blitzball supporters. His success comes from great bat-to-ball abilities and a bulldog mentality on the mound. Reazer has been regarded as the best hitter in Blitzball, a reputation reinforced when the Como Captains went into the Warehouse and won Blitzball Battle 3. He still hasn’t been able to defeat Trent Severino (#1) or Adam Knudsen (#2), which has held him back from a top rank. To reach #1 in Blitzball, Sammy will need to develop a few more pitches and become more dominant on the mound. Accolades/Stats: 2021 Como Blitzball World Series Champion 2x Como Blitzball MVP (2022, 2023) 2x Blitzball World Series Champion (2021, 2023) Blitzball Battle 3 Champion Blitzball Battle 3 MVP (0.765 BA)
5. Jack Bresnahan
When talking about Blitzball team leaders, Jack’s name frequently comes to mind, as he has built the Gainesville Blitzball League from the ground up and has led the team in some big matches. He is known for his outstanding pitching but also holds the clutch gene, keeping Gainesville in tight games. His riser starts at a low release point, adding to its deception, and his slider is top tier. What makes his pitching so solid is his command of the strike zone. He always seems to hit his spots when he needs to for some key outs. Accolades/Stats: 2x Blitzball World Series Runner Up
6. Joey DiMeo
Joey DiMeo has built his resume from the ground up since joining Como’s Steamrollers in 2020. His consistent, unorthodox style of pitching continues to pay off, earning him BWS Cy Young in 2023 and BWS Cy Young runner-up in 2024. Joey is the only player to win back-to-back Blitzball World Series with two different teams, KC and Como. After his dominant win over Jack Doyle in the Warehouse, he reached top 4 and competed in the 1v1 championship. He also received the Cy Young award in Como Blitzball with a 1.67 ERA in 2025. However, being dominated by Trent Severino (#1), Adam Knudsen (#2), and Sammy Reazer (#4) has dropped him to #6, as he looked weak against the top players in the 1v1 Blitzball Championship. His bat seems to be the problem, and he’ll need to improve it if he wants to climb back toward the top. Accolades/Stats: 2x Blitzball World Series Champion 2025 Como Blitzball Cy Young 2022 LCF Champion Beat Jack Doyle (#8)
7. John Castro
The highest rank a player has received after previously being a non-ranked Blitzball player. That was credited to his legendary performance for Swisher Blitzball in the 2025 World Series, where he helped propel them to their first World Series title ever, capping it off with a walk-off home run in extras against Gainesville Blitzball. He does most of his damage on the mound, featuring one of the best curveballs in Blitzball and consistently throwing strikes with his reliable screwball. He also improved as a hitter and showed out throughout 2025. Don’t be surprised if this high-energy player competes for one of the top ranks in Blitzball if he continues on the same trajectory. Accolades/Stats: 2025 Blitzball World Series Champion 2025 Swisher Showdown Champion 2024 Swisher Blitzball Rookie of the Year
8. Jack Doyle
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 #8 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. Accolades/Stats: Blitzball Battle 6 Champion Blitzball Battle 6 MVP 3x Blitzball Battle Cy Young
9. Kollin Stone
The man is everywhere - Warehouse Games, Como Blitzball, and formerly a Banana Ball player for the Texas Tailgaters. 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. Fresh off a Cy Young win at the 2025 Blitzball World Series, Kollin’s resume continues to grow. Accolades/Stats: Blitzball Battle 4 Champion Blitzball Battle 4 MVP Blitzball Battle 4 Cy Young Blitzball World Series Cy Young (2025)
10. Lorenzo Lew
Lorenzo Lew is the definition of a 5-tool player. He excels with the bat, on the mound, with quick fielding hands, plate discipline, and game IQ. All of this makes facing him one-on-one no easy task. He recently defeated Mike Diehl in a 1v1 matchup to secure a top 10 ranking in Blitzball. Lew has all the tools to become a top player, but he doesn’t play as consistently as some of the other elite players. His leadership and skill have already brought success on Blitzball’s biggest stage, and as he continues to gain experience, he could quickly ascend even higher in the rankings.
11. David Drzewicki
Don’t pitch to Drez… The player who completes one of the best trios in Blitzball with Gainesville is David Drzewicki. After hitting a tournament-record 9 home runs at the Columns Classic in 2024, he’s proven himself as one of the top hitters over the past few years. Drzewicki is a big reason Gainesville Blitzball has been the most consistent team in the game — always coming up clutch at the plate. He’s gone from unranked to climbing all the way to #11 in the rankings. If he can make the jump from a good to elite Blitzball pitcher… watch out. Accolades/Stats: 9 Home Runs at Columns Classic (Tournament Record) 24' 25' BWS Runner-Up
12. Jimmy Knorp
Jimmy Knorp is the face of the Warehouse franchise, the Woogas, and has been a hitting machine. He took home the BB4 "Wall Breaker" award after posting a .700 average and helping lead the Woogas to the Semifinals. In 2025, he helped the Woogas win Blitzball Battle 7. He also introduced a slider that has been fooling hitters all season and defeated Como Blitzball’s Hudson Borgmeyer in a thrilling 1v1 matchup. These achievements moved him up to the #12 spot in the rankings. The sky’s the limit for Knorp, as he is already strong at hitting and pitching and has the potential to be elite at both.
13. Hudson Borgmeyer
Hudson’s career started on a lackluster trail until he signed with the Badgers and had a career performance in the 2021 Como Blitzball World Series, where he hit two large home runs. Since then, Hudson has started his franchise in the Riptides and has been a part of some stellar tournament teams. Borgmeyer’s pitching has also taken off since 2021, led by his screwball and knuckle drop combination. He consistently finds the zone, and his pitches dip more than most screwball/drop pitchers, making him an effective arm for any squad he plays on. Accolades/Stats: 2021 Como Blitzball World Series Champion 2022 Sunflower Series Champion 2023 Blitzball World Series Champion
14. Matthew Weaver
Through Matthew Weaver's recent play, he has solidified himself at #14. In the Montezuma Blitzball League, Georgia’s most competitive league, his team, the Aztecs, won the championship, with Weaver emerging as the team’s top player. He hit an impressive .556 with 6 home runs, proving himself against the best competition in the state. On the mound, he features a wide pitching arsenal highlighted by a devastating knuckledrop, finishing the 2025 season with a 2.50 ERA. Weaver looks like Montezuma’s next big star, and he’s only just getting started. Accolades/Stats: 2025 Montezuma Blitzball League Champion 2025 Montezuma Blitzball League Silver Slugger
15. Henry Justice
One of the youngest phenoms in the rankings, Evan has showcased some of the greatest pitching highlights in recent years. His arsenal is unmatched, and he constantly pushes the boundaries of what a Blitzball is capable of. In his first Blitzball World Series tournament in 2024, Evan led Team Clickbait to the quarterfinals, thanks to his stellar pitching against some of the nation’s best offenses. If he can become more of a reliable hitter, he will find himself in the top 10.
16. Trevor Plouffe
If Plouffe’s MLB career wasn’t already an indication of success, Coach Trev proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he has elite bat control in Blitzball. Thanks to the dual threat provided by Plouffe, Forgotten Rotten quickly became the Warehouse’s biggest nightmare, and the former MLB star balled out on Blitzball’s biggest stage. His slider proved near impossible to hit, and his poise at the plate rattled several opposing pitchers. While history is on Trevor’s side, he hasn’t won the Blitzball Battle championship since 2022, which has him dropping to the #16-ranked player in Blitzball. Accolades/Stats: Blitzball Battle 1 Champion Blitzball Battle 2 Champion Blitzball Battle 2 MVP
17. Patrick Jacob
After taking home 2024 Blitzball World Series MVP honors, Gainesville Blitzball’s Leader of the Tigers, Patrick Jacob, has skyrocketed up the rankings. He’s the kind of pitcher no hitter wants to face when they step into the box. His pitch mix — featuring a Curveball, Knuckle Drop, Slider, and variations of fastballs — keeps hitters completely guessing. Jacob isn’t afraid to swing the bat either. With a quick bat-to-ball swing, he finds ways to produce at the plate. When he’s throwing strikes, he’s one of the best pitchers in Blitzball. But after some recent inconsistency on the mound, he’s dropped to #17 after previously being ranked #6. He’ll need to prove he can be a more reliable arm if he wants to climb back up. Accolades/Stats: 2024 BWS MVP 24', 25' BWS Runner Up
18. Kyle Yoder
You’re going to hear a lot about Montezuma Blitzball and Kyle Yoder for years to come. Montezuma is one of the youngest teams competing in Blitzball tournaments, yet they’re already holding their own against some of the best in the game. Kyle Yoder is a big reason for that early success. He’s already an elite hitter and a reliable pitcher, with great command of his fastball and slider. You can’t really find a weakness in his game. After winning a 1v1 matchup against Kirkland LaLance to secure a spot in the rankings, he’s debuted at #18, following an impressive 2025 campaign so far. We still have a lot to learn about this kid — but one thing’s clear: he’s here to stay.
19. Kirkland LaLance
Kirkland LaLance is the youngest ranked player in Blitzball, but he’s already making waves. He has a powerful arm, capable of reaching 102 MPH, and pairs it with disgusting off-speed pitches. LaLance has also shown promise at the plate—during the 2025 Little Cubs Field Tournament, he took Trent Severino (#1) and Henry Justice (#15) yard, proving he can compete with the best. He has dominated the Tennessee Blitzball League and is looking to make a statement in the 2026 Blitzball World Series. The one thing holding him back is his loss in a 1v1 in 2025 to Kyle Yoder of the Montezuma Blitzball League, which he’ll be looking to avenge. 3x Tennessee Blitzball Champion (2023, 2024, 2025) 2x Tennessee Blitzball MVP (2024, 2025) 2x Tennessee Blitzball Silver Slugger (2024, 2025) 1x Tennessee Blitzball Cy Young (2024)
20. William Eckstein
This is William Eckstein’s first time in the Blitzball player rankings, delayed due to his inactivity in national tournaments—but that in no way diminishes his talent. A true dual-threat, Eckstein will make his Blitzball World Series debut in 2026, giving him a chance to prove himself on the national stage. As commissioner of the Dooglas Blitzball League in Wisconsin, he put up eye-popping numbers in 2025, hitting .710 with 31 RBIs and 8 home runs. Eckstein also has a deep pitching arsenal, with his slider standing out as his best pitch—he even has a highlight reel full of them. Those skills and stats earn him a spot on the list and mark him as one of the highest-potential players moving forward. Accolades/Stats: 4x Dooglas Blitzball League Champion 3x Dooglas Blitzball League MVP 3x Dooglas Blitzball League Silver Slugger 4x Dooglas Blitzball League Cy Young
21. Mike Diehl
Mike Diehl has all but guaranteed himself a spot in a hypothetical Blitzball Hall of Fame thanks to a long, successful career with the Bombers Blitzball League. Known for his dominant pitching and clutch hitting, he helped lead the Bombers to multiple Blitzball World Series championships, including an iconic 2021 performance where he hit a monster home run and followed it with a walk-off double to secure the team’s second title. In recent years, he has remained solid, even if not as dominant as before. After dropping a 1v1 matchup to #10-ranked Lorenzo Lew in 2025, Diehl will need to prove he still has prime Mike Diehl in him if he wants to stay ranked. Accolades/Stats: 3x Bombers Blitzball Champion (2017, 2018, 2020) 2x Blitzball World Series Champion (2019, 2022) 1x Blitzball World Series MVP (2022)
22. Drew Davis
Drew Davis is one of the most exciting players in Blitzball, known for rocking the cowboy hat in the Warehouse and competing at a high level in the Como league. There were early questions about how his game would translate outside the Warehouse, but he quickly answered them by performing in Como. In 2025, he hit .435 with 3 home runs and helped the Crushers win the league championship. Drew plays with confidence and makes his biggest impact at the plate, but he has to be more consistent on the mound if he wants to move up in the rankings. Accolades/Stats: 2025 Como Blitzball League Champion
23. Cooper Carley
Cooper Carley, the ace out of Kansas City, burst onto the Blitzball scene in 2024, dominating the mound during the Blitzball World Series to bring KC their first championship. While still unranked, he has had two strong years in the Como Blitzball League with the Crushers, including a key role in their 2025 championship. Known as the most accurate pitcher in Blitzball, he walked just one batter in 45 at-bats in 2025 while posting a 1.80 ERA with 21 strikeouts. Cooper is the real deal and has been waiting for a ranking, and if he can make his bat a threat, he could move up the ranks quickly. Accolades/Stats: 2024 Blitzball World Series Champion 2025 Como Blitzball League Champion
24. Matt Foster
Matt Foster turned heads early in his Blitzball career by hitting a home run in five straight tournament games at the 2021 Little Cubs Field Tournament. Since then, he has remained an impactful player in the Como Blitzball League, contributing on both sides of the ball. However, ever since the speed limit was introduced in 2023, he has struggled on the mound, as his impressive arsenal of pitches hasn’t translated into consistent outs. Once a top 10 player, he is now near unranked, making the upcoming Blitzball World Series a crucial chance to maintain or improve his standing. Accolades/Stats: 2024 BWS Champion
25. Jordan Schroeder
Jordan has been a steady force in the tournament scene since mid-2021, but he really caught eyes with his performance in the 2023 World Series, where he allowed just one run the entire tournament. His riser/slider combo froze many of the hitters he faced — and that’s just one of the tools in his bag. At the plate, his speed and patient eye make him a formidable threat. A key piece of Swisher Blitzball’s 2025 World Series Championship, Jordan has continued to show his consistency year after year.
