BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 34% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Through 26 games in 2024, Tyler Nevin has already set a new career high in home runs with four. The 26-year-old is on pace to set new career highs in numerous other categories as well as he's never surpassed more than 184 MLB plate appearances before in a single season but is already up to 92 PA thus far. The former 38th overall draft pick's versatility enables Oakland to get his bat in the lineup multiple ways, having manned third base, first base, left field, right field, and designated hitter for the A's already this season.
Nevin's hitless game on Friday ended a nine-game hit streak that he had going. All four of his home runs came during that span, and the right-handed hitter also had five multi-hit games in that stretch. His current .313 batting average is supported by a career low 20.7% K% and better-than-league-average 78.8% Contact%. A Barrel% of 7.7% and HardHit% of 40.0% indicate that he should be able to continue to hit for power.

With the A's moving Nevin around to get his bet in the lineup, the super-utility man is eligible at 1B, 3B, and OF on Yahoo which provides managers with flexibility to plug offensive holes due to days off and injury. Nevin is available in nearly 70% of leagues, so if you're in need of a solid bench bat, there's a good chance you can grab him in your league.
