Deyvison De Los Santos 2025 Fantasy Baseball Outlook: Boom Or Bust Play?
Miami Marlins third baseman Deyvison De Los Santos has one of the most interesting profiles in the minors. He is one of the hardest players to evaluate, as his profile and performance tell two different pictures. On the one hand, De Los Santos slashed .293/.341/.569 with 40 home runs and 67 extra-base hits last season. It was one of the most impressive performances in 2024 of any minor leaguer and yet it is easy to sit and question- how did he do it? It is impressive that De Los Santos continued to hit all year despite poor contact and extreme chase rates. In Double-A the contact rate sat at 62 percent. In Triple-A, the number did improve to near 65 percent, with a 77 percent in-zone contact. The chase rate was one of the worst in the minors, sitting around 45 percent. On the flip side, De Los Santos had a 109 mph 90th percentile exit velocity, which was near the peak of all minor league hitters. His max exit velocity- an impressive 116 mph. Does the power enable him to get everyday playing time despite the concerning contact skills? That is to be determined. De Los Santos should see a lot of playing time with the Marlins and is worth a late-round flier in upcoming fantasy drafts.
