2025 Fantasy Outlook
Who says you can't go home again? Shenton, a Seattle area native, was drafted by the Mariners but eventually traded to the Rays in 2021 for Diego Castillo. The Rays, after watching Shenton for four seasons, decided he was not in the future plans despite some gaudy numbers Double-A and Triple-A and DFA'd him only to then send Shenton back to Seattle this past November. Shenton was on the up/down shuttle between Durham and St. Pete a couple of times in 2024 with little playing time but showed a strong command of the strike zone, which was his calling card in the minors. Shenton can draw walks with the best of them, but also swings and misses quite often and owns a 26.3% strikeout rate in the minors. Last season, he hit .258/.361/.497 for Durham with 20 homers in a friendly environment which he will not enjoy in Seattle should he make the roster. Shenton is out of options, so he has to make the club out of spring. The team is looking for more left-handed pop, so he has that going for him. Otherwise, at least he got his relocation back home funded for him through the trade. Read Past Outlooks
