2025 Player Outlook
Greene missed some time with a hamstring injury in the summer months, but across 137 games in 2024, Greene slashed .262/.348/.479 with 24 home runs and four stolen bases. The hope is that in 2025 he runs closer to the clip he did in 2023, and I will mention that he attempted just one stolen base after his return from his hamstring injury. The rising star makes a ton of hard contact, and he lofted the ball more in 2024, leading to the spike in power production. I expect his stolen base number to be in the 6-10 range, and there's a clear path for Greene to exceed 25 home runs this season. A true breakout season for Greene would look like 25+ home runs, 10 stolen bases, and a .275 batting average, which would make for one heck of a value at his ADP.
