Could the Hottest Hitter in Fantasy Baseball Become the Unrivaled MVP by 2025?
James Wood, OF, Washington Nationals
Wood is walking more and has posted a 171 wRC+ while being a top 25 fantasy player. Wood is on pace to hit 57 homers, steal 29 bases, score 114 runs and record 123 RBI. Wood sports the third-highest GB% among 177 qualified hitters thanks to a negative launch angle, but it’s hard to argue with the results. Quite simply, Wood looks like a star already, and the stolen bases should continue on an aggressive-running Nationals team. Wood struggled against southpaws as a rookie, posting just a .659 OPS, but he’s batting .318/.375/.818 against left-handers early on in 2025, showing real growth. Wood is a fantasy riser whose ADP will be top 20 in 2026.
