Brent Rooker delivered a standout fantasy season in 2024, launching 39 home runs, driving in 112 runs, scoring 82 times, and even adding 11 stolen bases. His impressive .293/.365/.562 slash line, however, is unlikely to hold up in 2025, as it significantly outpaces his career .243 batting average. The good news is that Rooker's power is legitimate, supported by a .570 xSLG and a 97th percentile Barrel Rate (16.6%). While his 28.8% strikeout rate showed improvement, it still raises concerns, particularly since players at 30 years old rarely sustain such progress. The Athletics' move to Sutter Health Park in Sacramento-a park that favors hitters-could enhance Rooker's counting stats next season. Though he'll start 2025 with only DH eligibility, his potential for 40 home runs places him among an elite group of power hitters, making him a worthwhile addition to fantasy rosters.
