2025 Fantasy Outlook
At the start of spring training, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza named Bader the team's everyday center fielder. While that mostly held true during the season, there was times during the season when the 30-year-old's playing time was hit-or-miss. Bader did ultimately finish with 143 games and 437 plate appearances, which were both career highs, thanks in large part to a rare full season of health for the outfielder. A .657 OPS and 85 wRC+ weren't anything to write home about, but Bader did prove useful in deeper fantasy formats with his 12 home runs and 17 stolen bases. After signing a one-year contract with Minnesota, Bader may be used more in a reserve and platoon role. However, he should get plenty of playing time in center field behind an injury-prone Byron Buxton and could also factor into a platoon elsewhere in an outfield dominated by left-handed hitters.

Third career multi-homer effort
Bader went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Friday's 4-3 win over the Rays.
Analysis
Friday marked the third career multi-homer game for Bader, who played the role of hero with his first career walk-off blast in the ninth inning. It was also Bader's first multi-hit effort since June 13, but he continues to play a semi-regular role in the Twins' outfield. Bader is slashing a respectable .251/.328/.420 with nine big flies, 10 doubles, 29 RBI and seven stolen bases over his 247 plate appearances.

Stat Review
How does Harrison Bader compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

There have been flashes of fantasy upside over the course of his first seven major-league seasons, but Bader has yet to truly put it all together at age 29 and is coming off one of the worst years of his career. He stole 20 bases in 23 attempts between the Yankees and Reds in 2023 but posted a miserable .274 on-base percentage across 344 plate appearances. That is an incredibly low OBP for a player who tends to rank in the 85th-to-95th percentile in sprint speed. Bader plays tremendous defense in center field, but he almost seems allergic to drawing walks and struggles to make hard contact against right-handed pitching. Given that most people and pitchers are right-handed, it's difficult to project how he is ever going to break into the ranks of reliable fantasy outfielders. Find steals elsewhere.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Fit with Minnesota?
The Twins may have interest in signing Bader, reports Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic.
Analysis
Minnesota requires a high-level backup in center field given Byron Buxton's injury history, and Bader fits that bill well as a plus defender. The 30-year-old played in 143 regular-season games for the Mets in 2024 and had a .236/.284/.373 slash line with 12 homers and 17 stolen bases.
