Expert Note
View More NotesIf you're looking for candidates for Comeback Player of the Year, Austin Riley should probably be on it. Riley's age-28 season was cut short by an abdominal injury that cost him almost one-third of the season, sapped his power, and caused his strikeout rate to jump to 28.6%. It was his second injury-shortened year in a row, but the underlying metrics suggest the bounceback is coming. Riley still had an elite 15.2% barrel rate and 50.2% HardHit rate, and his xSLG was 30 points higher than actual. Assuming he is able to return to the player he was from 2021-2023, expect another 30 home runs and 90 runs/RBIs. He should be the fourth third baseman off the board, and you can get him much later than the other three, making him a borderline early-round sleeper candidate.

Austin Riley went 1-for-2 with a solo homer and a walk in Thursday's 7-6 loss to the Reds.
Fantasy Impact
Riley seems to be heating up at the right time for the Braves. With the playoffs right around the corner, the two-time All-Star has gone 5-for-14 with two homers over the last five games. Riley has had a tough year, consistency-wise, as evidence by a .223 AVG and .665 OPS. However, he is now up to 19 homers and 72 RBI through 156 games.
