2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hope may have been a trendy sleeper and favorite among sharp prospect analysts this offseason, had he not gone to the Arizona Fall League. Now, the secret's out. Other than proximity, Hope brings everything to the table that we care about in fantasy. He doesn't turn 20 until January, but he hits the ball really hard (elite 108.5 mph 90th percentile exit velocity), sports above-average contact and chase rates and is a plus runner. Acquired by the Dodgers last offseason along with left-handed pitching prospect Jackson Ferris in the deal that sent Michael Busch to the Cubs, Hope slashed .287/.415/.490 with nine home runs, eight steals, a 14.9 percent walk rate and a 24.2 percent strikeout rate in 54 games for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga, with a 10-week absence due to a shoulder injury mixed in. Listed at 5-foot-10, 193 pounds, Hope looks a little thicker than the typical high-end teenage baseball athlete, but he's essentially got the body of an SEC running back -- he can do a standing back flip -- and the expectation is that he will add plenty of value in the outfield. Based on how good Hope looked in the AFL, he could spend the bulk of his age-20 season at Double-A, setting up a 2026 MLB debut. Read Past Outlooks
