Jacob Wilson took a major step forward in 2025, posting a .354 rOBA and 127 Rbat+ over 523 plate appearances while finishing second in AL Rookie of the Year voting. His elite 7.5% strikeout rate and 84.1 mph average exit velocity underscore his contact-over-power profile, but a 52.4% ground-ball rate and modest 2.5% HR rate cap the overall ceiling. The 2026 projection (.296/.350/.435, 12 HR, 5 SB in 472 PA) reflects some batting average regression from a .317 BABIP, though his bat-to-ball skills should keep him a category stabilizer. Wilson is a fantasy riser in batting average and runs scored formats, but his limited hard-hit data (24.8%) suggests he's more of a high-floor MI option than a true breakout power candidate.
