In his age-33 season in 2024, Tauchman continued to deliver results that were in line with the rest of his MLB career. He appeared in 109 games for the Cubs and posted a .248/.357/.366 slash line with seven home runs and six stolen bases. The left-handed Tauchman posted a .725 OPS against southpaws and a .733 mark against righties, and he's had similar splits over the past few years, so he's not really a platoon player. Instead, Tauchman profiles as a conventional fourth outfielder who can be used regardless of matchup. That proved valuable in 2024, as both Cody Bellinger and Seiya Suzuki missed a handful of games due to injury. Both of those players should have regular roles when healthy in 2025, as should Ian Happ and Pete Crow-Armstrong. That leaves Tauchman as a fourth option at best to start the year, which caps his fantasy upside. He's more of a streaming option if another outfielder gets hurt or someone worth targeting in daily formats on days that he cracks the starting lineup. Read Past Outlooks
