While his final numbers won't jump off the page, Baez did at least rebound some after a particularly ugly 2024 campaign. The veteran finished 2025 with a .257/.282/.392 slash line across 126 games, up significantly from the .184/.221/.294 line he posted a year earlier. Baez also popped 12 home runs, which was his first time in double figures since he hit 17 homers in his first season with the Tigers back in 2022. The 32-year-old even made his first All-Star team since 2019, as he was buoyed by a strong start to the year before cooling down in the second half. Notably, Baez also saw his first action in center field at the MLB level, and he saw time at second base, third base and shortstop as well. The added versatility gives him a slight boost heading into 2026, and Baez showed some flashes last season that reminded fantasy managers of what he was as a younger player. However, Baez is heading toward the twilight of his career, and there are plenty of options on the board who offer more upside. Read Past Outlooks
