Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Giants in December of 2025.
Contract selected Monday
The Giants selected Kennedy's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis
Kennedy has had a dynamite season with Sacramento, slashing .321/.424/.543 with eight home runs, five steals and a 27:27 BB:K over 48 games. The 27-year-old is likely slated for a reserve infielder role in San Francisco.

Stat Review
How does Buddy Kennedy compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
Kennedy earned a small handful of MLB plate appearances for the third straight season, and again did very little with them, going 2-for-10 for the Tigers and 2-for-11 after being designated for assignment and dealt to the Phillies. He hit a respectable .272/.376/.458 (good for a 119 wRC+) at the Triple-A level between the two organizations, but he's at best fighting for a bench role with the Phillies this spring. Philadelphia could potentially use a short-side platoon partner for Max Kepler in left field, but Kennedy has limited experience in the outfield, so he's probably an underdog in that fight.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
World Series ring all but secured
Kennedy isn't on Toronto's roster for the World Series, but he's likely to get a championship ring regardless of the result since he played for both the Blue Jays and Dodgers during the regular season, reports Mitch Bannon of The Athletic.
Analysis
Organizations that win the World Series will typically provide a ring for any player that saw action for them, so Kennedy should get some jewelry regardless of who comes out top in the Fall Classic. The 27-year-old appeared in four games with the Phillies in June before stops in Toronto and Los Angeles in August, seeing action in 13 big-league games overall and going 2-for-29 with a double. Kennedy fared better at the Triple-A level with a .790 OPS, and he's likely to begin 2026 on a minor-league contract somewhere.
