About KevScores

The Short Version

KevScores is a free fantasy baseball analytics tool. It gives you a daily-updated ranking of every MLB player, a trade calculator that evaluates any deal, risers and fallers reports, and weekly top scorers — all powered by a custom metric called the Kev Score that combines preseason value with live 2026 performance.

Why I Built This

This is my first year playing fantasy baseball. I’m a casual viewer of the game and a stats enthusiast by nature, and pretty quickly into the season I realized I needed help — the defaults weren’t cutting it.

Every fantasy platform shows you a player’s preseason ranking, their season totals, and maybe a few rate stats. What none of them show you cleanly is the thing you actually need to answer: what is this player worth right now? ESPN’s preseason values are frozen from March. Season totals tell you the past. Neither tells you whether the player your league-mate just offered you is a bargain or a trap.

Fantasy football has trade calculators everywhere. Fantasy baseball has almost none. So I built one.

How It Started

KevScores started life as a spreadsheet. I wanted a quick way to see my own league’s power rankings — not the ESPN-provided version based purely on standings, but a real view of which teams had the most valuable rosters.

Once I had a working formula, I kept pushing it. If I could rank my league’s rosters, I could rank every player. If I could rank every player, I could build a trade calculator. If I could track daily changes, I could build a risers and fallers list. Every new feature answered a question I was asking myself as a new manager.

The spreadsheet became a Python script. The Python script became a daily automated pipeline. The pipeline became this website.

What You Can Do Here

• Evaluate any trade. Add players to both sides of a proposed deal and see who’s winning — with league-size adjustments for 8-, 10-, and 12-team leagues.
• Browse the full rankings. Every MLB player with a Kev Score, filtered by position, type, or name. Sortable by whatever matters to you.
• See who’s hot and who’s cold. Rolling 7-day movers, both up and down, refreshed every morning.
• Check weekly top scorers. See who’s earning the most fantasy points this week for trade-deadline and waiver decisions.
• Click any player for details. 2026 season stats, position, team, Kev Score breakdown — all in a single view.

The whole site updates daily, automatically, every morning at 7 AM Central.

Who Runs This

My name is Kevin. I’m a stats enthusiast who got hooked on fantasy baseball this year and couldn’t find the tool I wanted to use, so I built it. There’s no team behind KevScores — it’s just me, a Python script, and a hosting bill.

If you’ve found this site useful, the best thing you can do is share it with a league-mate. If you’ve found a bug or have a feature request, reach out — I read every message.

What’s Next

A few things I’m actively working on or considering:

• A “paste your roster” tool for any platform (Yahoo, Sleeper, ESPN, CBS) that scores your team against the league
• League power rankings via ESPN league ID
• Weekly written breakdowns of the biggest Kev Score movers

If there’s something you’d love to see, let me know.
