Notes
	Ben Rice followed a rough 2024 debut with a legitimate breakout in 2025, slashing .255/.337/.499 with 26 homers and a 131 OPS+ across 138 games. The power spike was supported by improved contact quality and a manageable strikeout rate, turning him from replacement-level depth into a middle-of-the-order threat. Dual eligibility at catcher and first base quietly boosts his fantasy value. While his defensive profile may keep him rotating between DH and multiple positions, Rice's age-26 surge makes him an appealing upside target. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
	Excellent plate discipline and approach, I have been targeting Rice since the end of last year as a sleeper. A lot of people have joined on the Rice bandwagon, which has inflated his ADP, but I am even more bullish on him than the rest of the fantasy community. Anthony Gambale - Roto Street Journal
