2026 review

Chandler Simpson was a pure speed-and-contact player who barely squared anything up: he struck out at a 7.8 K% over 612 PA, the 2nd lowest of 267 hitters with 300+ PA, but his 0.0 Barrel% and 13.2 HardHit% over 538 BBE were the 1st lowest and 2nd lowest of 267 hitters with 300+ PA. Across 151 games for TBR he hit .306/.333/.356 in 571 AB with 0 HR, 66 R, 38 RBI, 46 SB and 14 CS, walking at a 4.2 BB% over 612 PA. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 159, he finished 57th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 102 spots above, and 6th of 93 left fielders. His .305 wOBA ran 42 points above his .263 xwOBA over 612 PA. He hit .383 over 107 AB in Aug and just .211 over 71 AB in Jun. By May 8 the TDK LABS card had his speed and improved defense locking in everyday usage, and by Sep 17 it had him as a steals-and-average asset whose underlying contact still lagged the results.
