Fantasy Baseball Player Notes

Bryce Harper stayed relatively healthy in 2024, playing in 145 games, his highest total since 2019. He hit 30 bombs, drove in 87, scored 85, and stole seven bases. His slash line remained an ever-impressive .285/.373/.525, and he has an elite walk rate of 12%. Of note, his strikeout rate has seen a slight increase for three consecutive years, but it remains within his normal career average. His 2025 projections put him back in the 30/100/100 range. The 32-year-old will only have first-base eligibility, but he should be one of the first three off the board at that position.
