2026 Fantasy Outlook
Caglianone's 2025 season should serve as the latest cautionary tale against prospect optimism. His stats between Double-A Northwest Arkansas and Triple-A Omaha to begin the year were impressive, indicating he was ready to advance to the highest level of competition. However, he managed just a .157/.237/.295 slash line and seven homers across 232 plate appearances with Kansas City. After returning from a hamstring injury in September, Caglianone was only slightly better at .183/.310/.333. Strikeouts were not a major problem during his time in the majors, but at 22 years old, he just could not make quality contact on a consistent basis. There may be some post-hype appeal with the right fielder/first baseman, but his rookie numbers suggest he's a ways off from putting it together, and Caglianone may even need more time back at Triple-A to refine his skills.

Sitting Wednesday
Caglianone is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
Analysis
After starting each of the Royals' first five games of May and going a collective 4-for-17 with two home runs, two walks, four RBI and three runs, Caglianone will receive a night off Wednesday. Starling Marte will check in for Caglianone in right field and will bat sixth.

Stat Review
How does Jac Caglianone 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.

2025 Fantasy Outlook
The samples are small, but Caglianone's production fell off massively in his first foray into pro ball. He slashed .241/.302/.388 with two home runs and a 20.6 percent strikeout rate in 29 games at High-A and .236/.300/.449 with five home runs and a 19 percent strikeout rate in 21 games in the Arizona Fall League, which is a very hitter-friendly environment. He hit .419 with 35 homers, 58 walks and 26 strikeouts in 66 games as a junior at Florida en route to getting drafted sixth overall by Kansas City, but those numbers don't carry much weight, given the extreme run-scoring environment in college baseball last year. He's listed at 6-foot-5, 250 pounds, but he has very little body fat for a first baseman that size. Caglianone has a body builder's physique and hits and throws left-handed, so he looks the part of a franchise first baseman. His lack of significant strikeout issues so far in pro ball is encouraging, and there's no doubting Caglianone's power potential. In dynasty first-year player drafts, things are very muddled among the top six or seven college hitters, but there's a case for using a top-five pick on Caglianone due his combination of relative floor and ceiling.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for MLB debut Tuesday?
The Royals have called up Caglianone to the big leagues, and he's expected to make his MLB debut against the Cardinals on Tuesday, according to Jeff Passan of ESPN.com.
Analysis
A first-round pick in the 2024 MLB Draft, Caglianone has been crushing minor-league pitching in 2025 and has gotten a much-deserved call-up to the bigs. Caglianone has a .323/.391/.600 slash line in 225 plate appearances at the Double-A and Triple-A levels this year. The slugger should give a huge boost to a dreadful Royals offense, as Kansas City is tied with the Pirates for the second-lowest run total in baseball, ahead of only the Rockies.
