2025 Player Outlook
Aside from not running much in 2022, India has been a consistent offensive option at the big-league level. He's hit double-digit home runs with double-digit stolen bases in three of his four seasons at the MLB level, and his average has been within .244-.249 in each of the last three seasons. He has a great feel for the strike zone, and his career walk rate of 10.5 percent makes him a logical fit atop the Kansas City order. The Royals will let him run, and as long as he stays healthy, India has a great chance to set a new career high in stolen bases and hitting in front of the likes of Bobby Witt Jr., Vinnie Pasquantino, and Salvador Perez is good for those counting stats. He'll do a little bit of everything across the board, and he feels slightly undervalued at his current ADP.
Player News
Jonathan India picked up two RBI on three hits in a win Monday over the Astros.
Jonathan India went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI, and a run scored on Sunday against the Astros.
India had two singles and was also caught stealing on the day. The 28-year-old continues to get regular playing time, but is hitting just .213/.324/.266 on the season. He simply doesn’t bring enough to the table as a fantasy asset to be held in shallower formats.
Jonathan India is not in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Rockies.
India has really struggled as of late, and is hitting just .195/.298/.244 on the 2025 campaign. He’ll get a break with Cavan Biggio lined up at second base in India’s absence. Michael Massey has also scuffled and will take a seat, with Maikel Garcia playing third.
Jonathan India, who missed Sunday’s game with right quad tightness before DHing on Monday, is out of the Royals lineup on Tuesday.
We’re going to assume this has to do with the quad. If healthy, he’d certainly be in the lineup against a left-hander in Max Fried. In his absence, the Royals have Maikel Garcia leading off and Cavan Biggio playing third base against a tough southpaw.
