2026 Fantasy Outlook

Contreras opted to stick around in 2025 during the Cardinals' rebuild, and in order to do so he agreed to move to first base. The hope was that a full-time move off of catcher could unlock more offensively from the 33-year-old. It didn't exactly happen, at least from a rate stats perspective, as Contreras' OPS dipped below .800 for the first time in four seasons. However, part of the benefit of not playing catcher anymore meant better health and more playing time for Contreras, who netted career highs in RBI (80), doubles (31) and runs (70). Unfortunately, he no longer has catcher eligibility, and at first base Contreras is more of an average fantasy option, especially when factoring in his pitcher-friendly home park and middling supporting cast.
