Shea Langeliers 2025 Fantasy Baseball Outlook: Power is the Name of the Game
26 mins agoWhen it comes to catchers, only Cal Raleigh has hit more home runs over the last two seasons than Shea Langeliers has. In 534 plate appearances last season, Langeliers smacked a career-best 29 home runs while driving in 80 and slashing .224/.288/.450. Sure, that average and OBP are on the lower end, but Langeliers zone (80.3%) and overall (70.8%) contact rates weren't terrible and he'll be moving to a better hitter's park in Sacramento in 2025. The average and OBP will likely never be impactful, but it wouldn't surprise me to see Langeliers increase the average to the .240 range to pair with around 25 home runs again. The power breakout over the last two seasons is backed up by a barrel rate above 12%, AVG EV above 90 mph, and a hard-hit rate above 44% in both 2023 and 2024.
