2025 Fantasy Baseball Draft Notes

Bobby Witt Jr. Note

Bobby Witt Jr is the poster child for "five-category fantasy asset." In 2024, the 24-year-old smacked 32 home runs, scored 125, knocked in 109, and stole 31 bases. On top of this, he slashed .332/.389/.588 and now has an argument to be the top overall pick in 2025. He reduced his K% from 17.4 to 15.0 and raised his BB% from 5.8 to 8.0. The only blemish on his Statcast page is a high chase rate (32.1%), but with 100th percentile sprint speed (30.5) and sitting above the 90th percentile in xwOBA, xBA, xSLG, avgEV, and barrel percentage, we can let it go. Shortstop is a deep position, but Witt stands alone at the top of the heap.
