Jacob Reimer

Reimer, a fourth-round pick out of high school in 2022, broke out in 2025 as a 21-year-old splitting the year between High-A and Double-A. He slashed .282/.379/.491 with 17 home runs, 15 steals, an 11.1 percent walk rate and a 21.5 percent strikeout rate in 122 games. Reimer was slightly better at High-A (19.4 K%, 163 wRC+) than at Double-A (23.6 K%, 150 wRC+), but he was masterful at both stops. Reimer played 16 games at first base last year and probably won't be any better than average at third base, so he'll need to mash in order to play regularly, especially for a first-division team. In addition to his patience and solid swing decisions, Reimer has plus raw power and an optimized lift (39.4 GB%) and pull (51.0 Pull%) approach. He's not on the 40-man roster and it seems that Ryan Clifford and Ronny Mauricio are better positioned for a shot this summer if there's an injury, but Reimer could hit his way into the mix.
