2025 Player Outlook
Vierling had a career year in his second year with the Tigers, slashing .257/.312/.423 with 16 home runs, 28 doubles, 80 runs scored, 57 RBI, and six stolen bases. He's now swiped at least six bags in three straight seasons, and he has back-to-back campaigns as a member of the 10/5 club with a .257 or better batting average. He enjoyed a career best barrel rate last season, and he continues to do a great job of getting the bat on the ball. He'll have 3B/OF eligibility in most leagues, and perhaps 1B depending on your league's/site's rules, but it's very possible we've seen pretty close to Vierling's ceiling as an MLB hitter. He's locked into an everyday for the Tigers and put up similar numbers to the last two seasons. Think a .250ish average with 12-16 home runs and 5-8 stolen bases.
