| Signed with the Cubs. Watched some clips of the 34-year-old slugger, who’s spent the last six seasons in Japan, and I kept thinking he looked like Steve Finley from the other side (Austin’s a righty), but I know that’s not it, because a Steve Finley ... (click to read the rest) |

Tyler Austin Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)
Tyler Austin projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections - combining Steamer rates and Razzball projected PA/Game and R/RBI - are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.| PA | AB | R | HR | RBI | SB | AVG | OBP | SLG | OPS | BABIP | K% | BB% | $ | |

Tyler Austin Fantasy Outlook For 2026
Grey Albright Player Summary Signed with the Cubs. Watched some clips of the 34-year-old slugger, who’s spent the last six seasons in Japan, and I kept thinking he looked like Steve Finley from the other side (Austin’s a righty), but I know that’s not it, because a Steve Finley reference would make me old, and I am a Zoomer. Austin’s had three .600+ SLG seasons in Japan since 2020, which is more than Murakami and Seiya Suzuki, but that’s like saying a guy went 40/40 in Triple-A. Okay, but if he were great, he’d be playing the majors and not Japan. He looks like a short-side platoon bat with power.
