2025 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Position

Team

Jackson Chourio Note
	23. Jackson Chourio CF,RF,LF Welcome to the big leagues, Jackson Chourio! The highly-anticipated rookie faced early challenges, struggling through April and May, which led many fantasy managers to drop him. However, those who stayed patient or picked him up later reaped the rewards. The 20-year-old finished the season with an impressive stat line: 21 home runs, 22 stolen bases, and a .275/.327/.464 slash line, mirroring the promise he showed during his stellar 2023 Double-A campaign. He also contributed 80 runs and 79 RBIs, impressive numbers considering the Brewers' lineup often struggled to generate offense. While his Chase% and BB% highlight areas for growth, these are typical for young players adjusting to MLB pitching. Fantasy managers can look forward to slight improvements in his power and speed, with a 25/25 season well within reach as he continues to develop. 2 weeks ago

William Contreras Note
	47. William Contreras C,DH It was only a matter of time before William Contreras became the top catcher in fantasy baseball, and his usage is one big reason why. The 27-year-old appeared in 155 games, catching 120 while serving as DH in 35. It is hard to find that level of consistency at the backstop position, but his numbers also stand alone. He hit 23 home runs, scored 99 runs, drove in 92, and stole nine bases. Perhaps his best trait compared to his peers is that he is an asset to your ratio numbers. He slashed .281/.365/.466 in 2024, which is not an aberration compared to his career. Aside from having to use an early pick on him, there isn't much downside to the younger Contreras. 7 days ago

Freddy Peralta Note
	80. Freddy Peralta SP Two years removed from an injury-plagued season, Freddy Peralta returned to form in 2024, posting a 3.79 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 173 2/3 innings. He struck out precisely 200 batters for a 27.6 strikeout rate, slightly below his career average. His 9.4% walk rate leaves much to be desired, but it is directly in line with his career average. While not exactly an "ace" in fantasy baseball, Peralta offers a strong strikeout upside, and he has started 30+ games in each of the last two seasons. Just don't draft him thinking he'll competently hold down the SP1 position on your roster. 6 days ago
