Joey Ortiz

26-Year-Old Third Baseman3B
Milwaukee Brewers
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ortiz was shipped to the Brewers from the Orioles in the Corbin Burnes trade in February, and the infielder delivered a solid rookie campaign with 11 home runs, 11 steals, 60 RBI, 58 runs and a .239/.329/.398 slash line in 142 games (511 plate appearances). He primarily played third base, where he produced plus-eight Defensive Runs Saved and plus-11 Outs Above Average, but he's expected to shift to shortstop in 2025 following the departure of Willy Adames. Ortiz wasn't typically a huge threat for homers or stolen bases in the minors, but he could push past the 15-15 mark in an everyday role. His strong defense and 11.3 percent walk rate should provide some stability to keep him in the lineup through slumps, but he'll more than likely be hitting in the bottom half of Milwaukee's order.
