2025 Player Outlook
What is there to say about Bobby Witt Jr.? The kid is absolutely phenomenal, and he's been a member of the 30/30 club each of the last two seasons. He his .332 last year (.315 xBA), and it seems to be legit, as he shaved a few percentage points off his strikeout rate and increased his barrel rate and average exit velocity. Say what you want about the Royals at home, and Witt Jr. was electric at home, but even on the road, he hit .284 with a .505 SLG. He's going to be within the top three picks in every draft this year, and rightfully so. Even if he hits .300 instead of .330+ again, he's a coveted five-category star.
