2025 MLB Hitter Projections: Who is the Top Sleeper Home Run Catcher?
In this story:
2 - Danny Jansen, TB
25 Home Runs (.232/64/25/64/0 over 445 at-bats)
Jansen is the sleeper power catcher in 2025. Over the past three seasons, he has a massive fly-ball rate (50.6, 52,4, and 52.9). The Blue Jays gave him part-time at-bats from 2021 to 2024 (184, 215, 268, and 278), but he still hit 52 home runs over 945 at-bats. This year, Jansen had an excellent chance at 450 at-bats, inviting a career-high in home runs and other counting stats. His batting average has risk due to many easy outs via fly balls that don't reach the seats.
With 20+ years of experience in the high-stakes fantasy market, I aim to research and compete at the highest level in baseball and football each season. I've contributed as a writer/analyst for Sports Draft Daily, ScoutPro, Scout Fantasy, Fulltime Fantasy, FFToolbox, and Sports Illustrated Fantasy. I'm honored to be in the National Fantasy Baseball Championship Hall of Fame. My drafting philosophy is risk-averse yet open to betting on potential game-changers. I approach player selection with a neutral perspective, acknowledging that fantasy sports are inherently unpredictable due to injuries, performance dips, and managerial decisions. My work focuses on these main areas: - Season-long fantasy baseball and football - BestBall Baseball and Football Events - Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS): DraftKings, FanDuel, and Underdog - Long Shot Player Prop Parlays for NFL I participate in various leagues and contests, including NFBC, NFFC, RTSports, FFPC, DraftKings, Underdog Fantasy, FanDuel, and FFWC, with the goal of leveraging my extensive experience and research for success in each game format. A fantasy follower can expect in-depth profiles of NFL and MLB players, along with season-long and weekly projections for each fantasy football season. In addition, I have many strategy articles to help develop fantasy players' learning curves.
