2025 Fantasy Outlook

Amaya took over as Chicago's unquestioned top catcher when the team cut Yan Gomes in June, but the youngster failed to do much with the opportunity. He batted just .232 with a .645 OPS, eight home runs and 47 RBI across 117 games. This came after hitting .214 with a .688 OPS across 53 games as a rookie in 2023. Amaya did flash a bit more offensive upside at times during his minor-league career, though his best traits as a player are probably on the defensive side of the equation, which doesn't do much for fantasy managers. Working in Amaya's favor heading into 2025 is the fact that he will likely retain his role as the Cubs' No. 1 catcher, unless the team brings in some veteran competition during the offseason. Playing time alone would give the 25-year-old some value in deeper formats, but until he displays more sustained success at the plate, Amaya will be hard to trust as a regular on many fantasy rosters.
