Brandon Marsh

Marsh remained a useful contributor to the Phillies and to fantasy teams last season but didn't take many meaningful steps forward in his age-26 campaign. He managed double digits in homers and steals for the third straight year, though he's yet to reach 20 in either category, with his 16 homers and 19 steals last season both representing career highs. He's yet to post a strikeout rate under 30%, but he hits the ball hard, with a 10.0% barrel rate last year helping him to a .249/.328/.419 line (108 wRC+) despite all the whiffs. A player with a competent bat and a strong glove in the outfield could lead drafters to dream about big counting-stat totals should Marsh be able to blow past the career-high 476 plate appearances he managed last season, but that might be unwise. The Phillies have generally been unwilling to use him in anything more than a platoon role, and given his .216/.276/.305 career slash line against southpaws, that's unlikely to change any time soon.
