2025 Fantasy Outlook
Anthony is not the consensus No. 1 overall prospect, but his credentials stack up with any prospect in the minors and he should make his big-league debut early this season. He won't turn 21 until May, but Anthony already cuts an imposing figure at 6-foot-2, 200 pounds. After playing 10 games at Double-A to close 2023, Anthony returned there and got off to a slow start, but he seemed to improve with each passing month, culminating with a dominant 35-game run at Triple-A to close the year. All told, Anthony slashed .291/.396/.498 with 18 home runs, 21 steals, an excellent 34.6 hard-hit rate and a passable 23.7 percent strikeout rate in 119 games. His walk rate jumped from 12.8 percent to 18.9 percent after the jump to Triple-A, while his strikeout rate improved from 25.5 percent to 18.9 percent, so his improving contact skill and swing decisions allow for a wide range of outcomes as a rookie. In Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela, Wilyer Abreu and Masataka Yoshida, it seems Boston has four players for the three outfield spots and designated hitter, so an offseason trade would be needed for Anthony to have an obvious spot in the Opening Day lineup. Long term, Anthony could profile similarly to the MVP version of Christian Yelich if he reaches his ceiling. Read Past Outlooks
