It’s that time of year when injuries start piling up, and fantasy managers everywhere are looking for a much-needed boost of health in their lineups. Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen players like Bryce Harper, Wilyer Abreu, Matt Chapman, and Shea Langeliers all sidelined by various ailments. While some big names are making their way back, such as Ronald Acuña Jr., Mike Trout, and Jordan Westburg, the hunt for the next breakout bat continues. With the recent call-up of Jac Caglianone and the return of Nick Kurtz, two powerful sluggers are looking to make their mark and should be rostered in all formats. Navigating the ever-changing fantasy landscape can be tough, especially when trying to avoid regrettable roster moves. But this is the time of year to be bold. Cut loose the fading stars and chase the hot hand that could carry you to victory. This week, we return to our Top 100 Hitters for the rest of the 2025 fantasy baseball season in a special Father’s Day edition. Buckle up and enjoy the ride!

Rising
- Jacob Wilson – Wilson has been ranked too low in previous editions, so this week’s big jump is more of a correction. He owns the best walk rate in the league outside of Luis Arraez, which has allowed him to capitalize on a strong Athletics lineup and sneak in some steals despite average speed. He also makes enough contact that his volume plays up in the power department, thanks to a solid launch angle. He may never hit more than 15 homers, but even a 10/10 profile with a .300+ average and a pile of runs is plenty valuable.
- Max Muncy – Muncy is only 34 years old, which might surprise some given how long he’s been a staple in the Dodgers’ lineup. Since he started wearing glasses on April 30, he’s been on fire, slashing .275/.404/.542 with nine homers and 31 RBI. He’s been even better in June, posting a 185 wRC+ and a .444 OBP. While his season-long numbers are still weighed down by early struggles, he’s flying under the radar. The rest-of-season outlook is very encouraging.
- Addison Barger – Through 48 games this season, Barger has been a force at the plate, improving steadily each week. After hitting just .185 through April, he’s turned it around with seven homers and 20 RBI in May and June. Behind the scenes, the metrics are even more exciting. His expected batting average sits at .289, and he ranks in the 96th percentile for exit velocity, with bat speed comparable to James Wood and Gunnar Henderson. He’s still adjusting to major league pitching, which should be a scary thought for the rest of the league.
Falling
- Ozzie Albies – Albies drops 16 spots in our rankings this week and may continue to fall unless he finds a way to turn things around. Performing 20% below the league average with only six homers and six steals, he has been far from the 20/20 bat fantasy managers expected. Over the course of the season, he ranks in the bottom 10% of the league in exit velocity, hard-hit rate, and bat speed. Add in sprint speed that has declined from top 15% to merely league average, and it’s easy to see why the production just isn’t there. If there’s still a buyer based on name value, now is the time to move on.
- Yordan Alvarez – Yordan remains one of the purest hitters in the league, but he’s been dealing with a hand injury for the past month that turned out to be a fracture. He’s still not swinging a bat, and this type of injury needs to fully heal before he can return to game action. A player capable of a 40-homer season is no better than replacement level if he can’t stay on the field. While there’s hope for a return soon, the more realistic timeline looks like late July.
Watching
- Matt Wallner – Over the past two weeks, no one has been making louder contact than Matt Wallner. Long known for his power, he’s posted a 76% hard-hit rate with four homers during that span. However, a .143 BABIP has kept his average at just .189. He’ll never be a batting average asset, but the strikeouts are coming down. If he can continue to improve his plate discipline, he’s the kind of player who could break out in a big way. Keep a close eye on him.
- Evan Carter – Once a top prospect, Carter has spent time in Triple-A this season working to get back on track. Since his recall at the beginning of June, he’s been electric, posting a 261 wRC+ with a .407 average, three homers, and two steals. There’s certainly some luck involved, but it wasn’t long ago that Carter was a popular breakout pick for the Rangers. He’s reminding us why.
