In the latest 5×5 rankings for outfielders, there are some significant changes from the previous rankings. Victor Scott II, Seth Brown, Kyle Stowers, Johnathan Rodriguez, Dylan Carlson and Michael A. Taylor have all been dropped from the rankings. Additionally, Adam Frazier, Dane Myers and Oscar Colás have also been removed.
James Wood has moved up to 53rd place in the rankings. His improvement in strikeout rates from Double-A to Triple-A is promising, but concerns remain about his contact ability in the majors. Despite his power potential, his average might be an issue initially. Heliot Ramos slipped to 55th due to recent performance. While his exit velocity is impressive, struggles with xwOBA and strikeouts are concerning. His power potential in San Francisco is hindered by the tough environment and limited speed.
Garrett Mitchell has returned from injury but playing time remains uncertain as the Brewers have not made room for him in the regular lineup yet. With competition from other outfielders, Mitchell’s fantasy potential may not be fully realized immediately. Chas McCormick and Joey Loperfido are ranked at 70th and 87th respectively. Despite McCormick’s recent xwOBA success, playing time has been limited by the Astros due to consistency issues in lineup decisions that need to be addressed for these players to reach their full potential.
