Michael Toglia is on track to begin the season as the Rockies’ everyday first baseman, per Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Manager Bud Black praised Toglia’s mindset and defensive ability, emphasizing that the 26-year-old has earned his opportunity.
Fantasy Impact:
Toglia struggled early in 2024, hitting just .106 before a brief demotion, but he rebounded to start Colorado’s final 101 games, finishing with 21 home runs and 10 steals. His 32.2% strikeout rate remains a concern for his batting average, but his power-speed upside and regular playing time make him an intriguing late-round fantasy option, particularly in deeper leagues and NL-only formats.
