Jeremy Pena took a major step forward in 2025, posting career highs in batting average (.304), OBP (.363), slugging (.477), and OPS (.840) while cutting his strikeout rate and showing tangible growth in plate discipline. The power rebound (17 HR) combined with a repeatable 20-SB pace pushed him from a glove-first middle infielder into a true five-category contributor. Underlying contact quality and 2026 projections support most of the gains, even if some batting average regression is expected. With everyday shortstop duties locked in and peak-age growth still intact, Pena profiles as a stable top-tier fantasy shortstop rather than a one-year spike.
