2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ornelas took another step forward in 2024, posting the best OPS (.871) of his minor-league career. Though it's fair to attribute some of his power progression to his spending the entire season in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, it's nonetheless promising that Ornelas belted 23 homers over 549 plate appearances last year after going deep a combined 14 times across 937 PAs in High-A and Double-A ball in 2021-22. Ornelas isn't going to be much of a base stealer, but he's struck out at less than a 20% clip in each stop above High-A and could be a decent source of homers if he can learn to hit the ball in the air more (his GB% has hovered in the upper-40s during his time in the minors). The Padres like Ornelas enough to have added him to the 40-man roster last July, and there's a good chance he'll make his MLB debut sometime in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
