Notes
	Ceddanne Rafaela took a meaningful step forward in 2025, emerging as a clear fantasy riser after trimming his strikeout rate from 26.4% in 2024 to 19.9% while boosting his ISO to .165. While his .295 OBP still limited his runs ceiling in standard formats, Rafaela's elite defense secures everyday playing time, and his 80% SB success rate could add impactful speed to a roster. If the 2026 projections hold near a 15-18 HR, 18-22 SB pace with incremental OBP growth, Rafaela profiles as a high-floor middle-round target whose category juice outweighs the modest plate-discipline concerns. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
	He made major strides in his plate approach in 2025, and provided counting stats across the board (16 homers, 63 RBI, 84 runs, and 20 bags). He is slashing .364/1.101 this Spring, and could be a league winner at his ADP. Anthony Gambale - Roto Street Journal
