2025 Fantasy Outlook
Isbel saw his most extensive action yet at the major-league level in 2024, playing 136 games and accruing 426 plate appearances. Unfortunately, he showed little-to-no advancement of his offensive game, ranking 179th in OPS and 195th in wRC+ among the 207 players to cross the 400 plate appearance threshold. The quality of contact was similarly lackluster with a hard-hit rate in the 26th percentile and barrel rate in the 12th percentile. Isbel plays an elite center field, ranking in at least the 95th percentile in Outs Above Average each of the last three seasons. The glove might be enough for the Royals to put him in the lineup regularly again at least versus righties in 2025, but Isbel will be heading into his age-28 season and we've yet to see any indication that he can be a viable fantasy contributor.
