28-Year-Old OutfielderOF
Miami Marlins
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Traded from Baltimore to Miami in 2024, Stowers wasn't informed that he made the Marlins' 2025 Opening Day roster until the final days of spring training. He would go on to be the team's sole representative in the All-Star Game, slashing .288/.368/.544 with 25 homers and five steals across 457 total plate appearances before a left oblique strain put him on the injured list in August. Stowers began a rehab assignment in early September but had to pause it after just one game due to discomfort in his opposite side, a setback which ended his season. There is some lingering uncertainty given the injuries, and he had struggled with strikeouts prior to 2025, but Stowers tattooed the ball when healthy last season and projects as an everyday presence in the middle of the order for an improving Marlins offense.

Makes first career start at 1B
OFMiami Marlins
April 27, 2026
Stowers got the start at first base Sunday and went 0-for-4 in a loss to the Giants.
Analysis
It was the 28-year-old's first career action at first base, and his first 239 big-league games all came in the outfield or at DH. Stowers could get a longer look at the position as the Marlins search for a long-term answer, but Connor Norby appears to be manager Clayton McCullough's first choice for now. In six games since recovering from a hamstring strain and making his belated 2026 debut. Stowers is batting .273 (6-for-22) with three doubles, but he's still looking for his first homer and first RBI.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
Stowers was one of Baltimore's top prospects but appeared in just 19 games in 2024 before being dealt to the Marlins at the trade deadline. He quickly joined the big-league club in Miami but finished the season with a .208/.268/.333 slash line and 35.4 percent strikeout rate. He had 18 home runs in 58 Triple-A contests but couldn't find his power in the majors with just three long balls. The swing-and-miss tendencies have been an issue throughout his time in the minors, and his .242 average the past two seasons at Triple-A is also concerning. Stowers should receive plenty of chances to work things out in the majors with the Marlins in 2025, but he's hardly a sure thing to produce despite his prospect pedigree.
Stowers was part of the Orioles' Opening Day roster last season, but he was sent down after a week and ultimately spent the overwhelming majority of his year back at Triple-A Norfolk. The 26-year-old posted an .875 OPS with 17 homers in 68 games with Norfolk, but he struck out at a 27 percent rate there and in 14 contests with the big club went just 2-for-30 at the dish. Stowers remains intriguing because of his power potential, but he's been passed up by some fellow youngsters on the Orioles' outfield depth chart and others are also threatening to leapfrog him. A path to fantasy viability in 2024 might require a trade to a new organization.
Stowers' strong season with Triple-A Norfolk had Orioles fans clamoring for his first taste of the majors. He slashed .264/.357/.527 with 19 home runs and 78 RBI in 95 games at Norfolk, and he ended up logging a .253/.306/.418 line in 99 plate appearances in the majors. He's a corner outfielder, and there's a job to be had in right field if Anthony Santander is deemed a better fit as the designated hitter in 2023. Stowers' power is his most intriguing tool -- he boasted an 11.3 percent barrel rate and 50 percent hard-hit rate in his limited sample with the Orioles in 2022. Barring a bad spring, he should open the year on the strong side of a platoon. Stowers received just four plate appearances and no starts versus left-handers in the majors last year, though he'll eventually have to get a longer look.
