Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2021
Basabe amassed nearly 1,700 plate appearances in the minor leagues before his 23rd birthday while also earning his first promotion to the majors. Basabe hit .311/.369/.432 in the Tampa Bay farm system, and injuries, as well as a .296/.351/.426 line in Durham this year, earned him that promotion. Like Jonathan Aranda, that minor league success did not translate into major league success, as Basabe looked completely overmatched at the plate against major league pitching aside a grand slam off Daniel Bard in a blowout game in late August. The switch hitter is still growing into his frame and profiles as a bottom of the order utility player until such time as his skills or opportunities improve. The Rays dealt away one of the roadblocks in his way in Vidal Brujan, so it would appear Basabe would at least inherit the role Brujan had with the club in 2023. He can safely be avoided in mixed leagues for the time being given his rather limited ceiling.
Basabe joined the Rangers as an international free agent in 2017 for $550,000. He's displayed advanced contact skills in organized ball since, striking out at under a 12% rate across 398 plate appearances. Basabe has also utilized his plus speed to swipe 19 bases in 87 games in rookie ball. Though he wasn't added to the Rangers' 60-player pool this past summer, Basabe participated in the Venezuelan Winter League and hit .360/.385/.488 across 91 plate appearances. In addition to his bat, Basabe has positional versatility, playing primarily at second base and shortstop as a professional. However, scouts also project that he could shift to the outfield at some point in his career. That versatility will be key for Basabe after he was traded to the Rays this offseason. He should spend his age-20 season at Low-A, where he will look to start tapping into some power to go with his impressive hit tool.
