Notes
	Jose Altuve's 2025 profile showed clear age-related erosion, with declining rOBA, reduced hard-hit rates, and a continued drop in stolen-base efficiency despite strong durability. While his contact skills remain above average, the quality of contact has flattened out, making his mid-20s home run totals harder to bank on going forward. The 2026 projections reflect this shift, leaning toward solid but unspectacular production with diminishing speed and only modest power. Altuve still offers batting average stability and run production in a strong lineup, but at his age, he profiles more as a floor play than a difference-maker in fantasy formats. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros	Marcell Ozuna's 2025 campaign marked a steep regression from his elite 2023-2024 peak, as his slash line fell to .232/.355/.400 with 21 home runs across 592 plate appearances. Now eligible only at DH with the Pirates, Ozuna's lack of positional flexibility further caps his fantasy utility. Projections pointing toward solid but no-longer-elite power production more in line with a mid-tier corner bat than a foundational fantasy piece. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
	Everything in his profile says "decline" and "avoid". He isn't making as hard of contact, his speed is waning, and his age is increasing. Anthony Gambale - Roto Street Journal
