2025 Player Outlook
Hoerner has at least 20 stolen bases and a .270+ batting average in three straight seasons, and there’s nothing that suggests that 2025 is the year that streak comes to an end. He has excellent contact metrics, and his 89.1 percent contact rate was a career high last season. While you can’t project him for anything past 10-12 home runs, he’ll give fantasy managers stolen bases and a plus batting average. Hoerner is locked into an everyday role, and so long as you plan for his dearth of power, he’s a solid target at second base.
