Rest-of-Season Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
The Pasquatch stepped up to fulfill the projections of our outlook for him last season. We said if he could stay healthy and hit behind Bobby Witt and Salvador Perez, he should be able to drive in 100 runs and put up 30 homers. He finished with 113 runs driven in and 32 homers and, more importantly, he avoided the injured list for the first time since 2022. He maximized his production against righties, hitting .281/.346/.511 with 26 of his 32 home runs against them, but had his worst season against lefties at the big league level. The challenge for Pasquantino was that 24 percent of his plate appearances came against fellow southpaws, so his .614 OPS against lefties limited his overall final numbers. His numbers against lefties have worsened each season he has been in the big leagues, so in order for Pasquantino to take that next step, he needs to stop that trend. If he can use 2026 to repeat his success against righties while stopping this backslide against lefties, 40 homers and 125 RBIs are within reach. He finished 2025 as the seventh-best fantasy first baseman, but top three is 2026 is within reach. Read Past Outlooks
Goes yard in win
Pasquantino went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 5-2 win over Cincinnati.
Analysis
Pasquantino opened the scoring early, turning on an elevated fastball from Chase Burns in the first inning for a two-run homer. With a single added in the eighth frame, Wednesday marked the first baseman's fourth multi-hit effort over the past six games. Pasquantino is looking to turn the corner in what has been a disappointing 2026 campaign, as he's hitting .214 with a .648 OPS, six homers, seven doubles, two triples, 28 RBI, 22 runs and two stolen bases across 59 games.

Stat Review
How does Vinnie Pasquantino compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2022
Go ahead, pinch your thumb and index finger together and shake it in the air. Italian Breakfast was a big part of the surprising Kansas City offense until he broke his thumb attempting to catch a throw from Lucas Erceg, which went into Jeremy Pena running to first. Pasquantino missed the rest of the regular season but still managed to drive in 97 runs with 19 homers. Pasquantino hit 19 homers in his first 558 major league plate appearances across 2022 and 2023 and then duplicated that effort in his third season while continuing an excellent approach at the plate. Fully solving lefties is the last piece of this puzzle, because he is truly at his best when righties are on the mound. The concerns heading into 2024 with Pasquantino coming off shoulder surgery were alleviated with his results, and the winter off should allow the thumb injury to fully heal. As long as Pasquantino can remain slotted behind Bobby Witt and in front of Salvador Perez, he is in the best possible spot for this lineup and should easily drive in 100 runs and push to 30 homers. Despite the incomplete season, he finished in the top 10 for first basemen, and his acquisition cost for 2025 drafts will be high.
