Expert Note
View More NotesMatt Olson's 2025 results fell short of his peak power standards, but remained consistent year over year. For the fourth year in a row, the 32-year-old played in all 162 games and flirted with another 30/100/100 season. His 2026 projections still forecast elite home run totals and strong RBI production, supported by consistent barrel rates and everyday cleanup duties in Atlanta. Olson's 2025 batting average (.272) was buoyed by a .333 BABIP, so expect regression to around the .250 mark this year. His power floor is among the safest at the position. Olson profiles as a reliable early-round source of HR and RBI, particularly valuable in formats that de-emphasize average.
