## Documentation

## What Ball Ranks MCP server does

The Ball Ranks MCP server provides read-only access to NFL and NBA fantasy rankings and player projections. It is intended for agents or applications that need fantasy sports reference data without changing records or submitting updates.

The underlying Ball Ranks site publishes aggregate weekly comparisons drawn from dozens of leading expert sources. That makes the service relevant when an agent needs rankings or projections informed by multiple expert inputs rather than a single analyst’s list. The available coverage described for this listing is limited to NFL and NBA fantasy data.

## How it works

The service is published at the Ball Ranks MCP API address: `https://ballranks.com/api/mcp`. An MCP-compatible client can use the endpoint to request the read-only fantasy data exposed by Ball Ranks. The supplied material does not document a separate package, local runtime, authentication flow, or command-line wrapper.

The Ball Ranks MCP server should be treated as a retrieval source. Its documented purpose is to provide rankings and player projections; the listing does not describe mutation, account, transaction, roster-management, or other write capabilities. Weekly aggregate comparisons are part of the data context published by the companion site, but the available material does not specify individual fields, response formats, scoring systems, update schedules, or query parameters.

## Tools and capabilities

Documented capabilities include:

- Reading NFL fantasy rankings.
- Reading NBA fantasy rankings.
- Reading NFL player projections.
- Reading NBA player projections.
- Accessing weekly comparisons aggregated from dozens of expert sources.

The source does not provide formal tool names or detailed schemas. Developers should verify the endpoint’s advertised MCP methods and response structures in their client before building workflows that depend on specific filters or fields.

## Limitations and notes

The Ball Ranks MCP server is described as read-only. It is therefore a fit for research, comparison, and agent answers that consume fantasy rankings or projections, not for workflows that need to write data back to Ball Ranks.

Only NFL and NBA fantasy coverage is identified in the listing. Other leagues, sports, scoring formats, projection horizons, and roster actions are not documented and should not be assumed. The material also does not identify supported MCP clients, installation steps, required environment variables, licensing terms, rate limits, or authentication requirements. Confirm those operational details from the live endpoint or its provider before deployment.

Because the source emphasizes aggregate weekly comparisons, applications should also establish how current results need to be before relying on them for time-sensitive decisions. No specific refresh interval is supplied.
