MLB Stars at a Crucial Juncture: Who Will Rise from the Ashes and Who Will Fade Away?
Others to Consider
Adolis Garcia, Texas Rangers: He’s never been a high-OBP hitter, of course, but that .284 mark last season was disconcerting. As was his drop in BIP+. Garcia’s 176 in 2023 was elite; his 135 last year was still well above league average but trending in the wrong direction.
Rhys Hoskins, Milwaukee Brewers: Milwaukee brought Hoskins in to supply power to the lineup, and he hit 26 home runs (including a couple memorable ones), but his ISO (isolated power) of .205 was a career low, as was his .303 OBP and 98 OPS+. Going hitless in three playoff games wasn’t a great look, either.
