Rest-of-Season Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
An undrafted free agent signed by the Phillies back in 2022, Kemp impressed in 74 Triple-A games last season, slashing .310/.417/.570 with 16 homers and 13 steals. Injuries opened up playing time at the big-league level as well, but the 25-year-old failed to impress, hitting .234/.298/.411 with a modest eight homers and two steals in 62 contests. He did manage an impressive 12.1% barrel rate, but that couldn't offset a very poor combination of a 5.5 BB% and 30.7 K%. The whole package did add up to a nearly league-average 95 wRC+, but that's not enough for a regular role for a player who graded out poorly on defense everywhere except for first base. Kemp then underwent a pair of offseason surgeries on both his knee and shoulder, with his recovery timeline unclear. If he's good to go by spring training, he'll have a chance to earn a bench role, with at-bats potentially available on the short side of a platoon in left field if the Phillies think he can play passable defense there.

Signed a one-year contract with the Phillies in March of 2026.
Optioned to Triple-A
The Phillies optioned Kemp to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.
Analysis
Kemp has gone just 2-for-25 with a 1:10 BB:K over 13 games during his time with the big club this season and will head back to Lehigh Valley to try to get back on track. Steward Berroa will grab Kemp's spot on the roster.

Stat Review
How does Otto Kemp 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.
