Hunter Goodman broke out in 2025, turning everyday run at Coors into a 31-HR, 91-RBI campaign with a .278/.323/.520 slash and 120 OPS+. The skills growth backed it up: his rOBA jumped to .367 with a 124 Rbat+, while his average exit velocity (90.8 mph) and 47.3% hard-hit rate both cleared league norms. The strikeout rate remains elevated (26.3%) and his 5.7% walk rate caps the OBP ceiling, but a .243 ISO with consistent pull-side authority gives him bankable power in Colorado. For 2026, projections largely buy the power foundation while regressing the batting average closer to his career .248 mark, reflecting some BABIP normalization after last year's .331 clip. Qualifying at catcher enhances his fantasy utility, given the position's shallowness. Goodman profiles as a high-variance power bat whose home environment and batted-ball quality support another 25-30 homer season, but managers should price in batting average volatility rather than paying for a repeat of the .278 mark.
