Caleb Durbin

25-Year-Old Second Baseman2B
Milwaukee Brewers
2025 Fantasy Outlook
If Arizona Fall League fantasy leagues existed, Durbin would be a first-round pick. In 2024, he set the AFL single-season record with 29 steals, and he also has the career AFL record with 50 steals (on 53 attempts) in his 47 games on the fall circuit. Durbin should get his chance to show how much his game translates at the highest level this year after getting traded to Milwaukee as part of the return from the Yankees for Devin Williams. Durbin slashed .287/.396/.471 with 10 home runs, 29 steals, a 12.5 percent walk rate and a 9.9 percent strikeout rate in 82 games at Triple-A. Durbin is listed at 5-foot-6, 185 pounds and logged a very poor 20.9 percent hard-hit rate and a 27.2 percent soft-hit rate in the minors in 2024, but so far, he has been able to ambush enough pitches to the pull side to hit for respectable game power. That trend may not carry over, at least initially, in the majors, but Durbin should get a fair opportunity with the Brewers due to his defensive versatility, ability to get on base and ability to steal bases in bunches. He is eligible at second base but could add third base eligibility early in the year. Read Past Outlooks

June 4, 2025
Durbin is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Cincinnati.
ANALYSIS
Durbin had made 17 straight starts from May 14 through Sunday but now finds himself on the bench for the second time in the Brewers' three-games series in Cincinnati. The Brewers haven't indicated that Durbin is dealing with an injury, but fantasy managers may still want to confirm that he's back in the lineup Friday, when Milwaukee kicks off its three-game series with San Diego. Andruw Monasterio will spell Durbin at third base Wednesday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to start in 2025
2BNew York Yankees
May 24, 2024
Durbin could secure a spot on the Yankees' Opening Day roster in 2025 due to Gleyber Torres not likely to be re-signed, reports Chris Kirschner of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Durbin has supporters within the front office, which should put him in a strong position next spring to secure the playing time likely to open up in 2025. The 24-year-old is performing well at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season with 20 steals and a .299/.413/.458 slash line through 47 games.
