Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
As a switch hitter with elite defensive skills, Perkins is a prototypical fourth outfielder. He saw more playing time than that in 2024 given Milwaukee's injuries, and he finished with a .240/.316/.332 slash line, six home runs and 23 steals in 121 games. Perkins doesn't provide fantasy managers with much besides a middling average and stolen bases, but that's enough to guarantee him at least a semi-regular role for the Brewers when combined with plus-eight Defensive Runs Saved and plus-10 Outs Above Average. He could be a streaming option during hot stretches but doesn't have much long-term appeal. Read Past Outlooks
Running on ultra-gravity treadmill
Perkins (shin) has been running at 70 percent of his body weight on an ultra-gravity treadmill and will be re-evaluated Friday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Assuming he checks out well Friday, Perkins should be cleared to advance to the next step in his rehab, although it's not clear exactly what that would be. Out since late February with a fractured right shin, Perkins is still tentatively expected to be ready for his season debut sometime in May.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Perkins joined the Brewers last offseason and made his MLB debut in 2023, posting a .217/.325/.350 slash line with four homers and five steals in 67 games. The offensive production was forgettable, but a 13.9 percent walk rate coupled with strong defense (11 DRS) led to a regular role before being sidelined for a month during the second half with an oblique strain. Perkins seems unlikely to operate as much more than a fourth outfielder given Milwaukee's plethora of young outfield talent, but he could still provide some bench value for the Brewers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Bunting with regularity
According to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Perkins has squared to bunt in 12 consecutive starts and has two bunt hits during that stretch.
ANALYSIS
The Brewers as a team have been one of the most bunt-happy clubs in baseball and rank third with 21 bunts, which matches their full-season total from 2023. Perkins opened the season as Milwaukee's No. 4 outfielder, but he's turned into a lineup regular in center field with five home runs and a .241/.324/.367 slash line in 47 games. The 27-year-old's offense has tapered off with a .584 OPS in May, but his strong defense in center field -- he has plus-five defensive runs saved in 393.1 innings -- gives him a stable role despite the offensive inconsistency.
