Keibert RuizWSN · C
2026 review
Keibert Ruiz was a catcher who made contact but rarely worked a walk, with a 10.5 K% and a 4.5 BB% over 354 PA; the K% was the 11th lowest of 267 hitters with 300+ PA, a strength, while the BB% was the 12th lowest of 267 hitters with 300+ PA, a limiter. He hit .280/.316/.443 over 354 PA with 10 HR, 44 R and 48 RBI across 105 games and 94 starts for WSN. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 392, he finished 288th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 104 spots above, and 11th of 103 catchers. His .328 wOBA ran 39 points above his .289 xwOBA over 354 PA. The TDK LABS card tracked a changing role: by early May it described a shrinking share of catching time behind another player, by early Aug it had his power outperforming expectations while a reduced role loomed with a new arrival, and by late Sep it had him back in the lineup, with catcher scarcity still keeping him valued.
