2025 Fantasy Outlook
Lee wants a do-over of his first season in the states. After signing a six-year, $113 million contract with the Giants last offseason, Lee lasted only 37 games before requiring season-ending surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. The 26-year-old offered a mixed bag before getting hurt. The elite contact ability carried over from the KBO, with Lee striking out at a microscopic 8.2 percent rate. The double-digit walk rate he had in Korea did not immediately translate, as he drew free passes at just a 6.3 percent clip. Just two home runs for Lee was disappointing, but a 41.8 percent hard-hit rate and a 40-point gap between his xwOBA (.324) and actual wOBA (.284) suggest he showed more thump than the bottom line numbers indicate. Lee also had a sprint speed in the 79th percentile, although he was never much of a base stealer in the KBO. Oracle Park won't do the left-handed hitting Lee any favors, but he's expected to be ready to roll on Opening Day and a return to the leadoff spot awaits. Read Past Outlooks
