Mickey Moniak Emerging as a High-End Power Bat
Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak is off to a strong start to the 2026 season, hitting .261/.300/.630 with five home runs, nine RBI, seven runs scored, and one stolen base across his first 50 plate appearances of the season. So far, the 27-year-old is backing up the power breakout he experienced in 2025, when he hit 24 home runs in 461 plate appearances with the Rockies. The lefty-swinging Moniak is still seeing most of his playing time against right-handed starting pitching, which limits his overall counting stat upside. He's also striking out at a 26% clip, so his batting average could come down over the course of the season. Still, Moniak has proven he can be effective in a platoon role and should be rostered in most fantasy leagues.
