2026 review

Nick Gonzales was a contact-first third baseman who put together a steady everyday season for PIT: he hit .303/.367/.388 with a 16.3 K% and a 7.1 BB% over 608 PA, adding 27 2B and 6 HR across 148 games and 141 starts. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 1056, he finished 111th of 1472 overall in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 945 spots above, and 89th of 660 hitters and 13th of 67 third basemen. His .339 wOBA ran 12 points above his .327 xwOBA over 608 PA, and his best month was Jul at .388 over 103 AB against .253 over 83 AB in Aug. The TDK LABS card traced his rise across the year: by May 8 it had him taking over the everyday third base job from the incumbent, by Jul 17 it was flagging an emerging power stretch in a part-time role, by Aug 24 it had him hitting in a prominent lineup spot again with clear upward momentum, and by Sep 27 it described him as an established third baseman with above-average contact working through a quiet stretch.
