Christian Moore

22-Year-Old Second Baseman2B
2025 Fantasy Outlook
It's become a running joke that the Angels' first-round pick will be the first player from each class to reach the majors, and Moore, whom the Angels selected with the eighth-overall pick in 2024, could follow that same rapid path as Zach Neto and Nolan Schanuel before him. A power-over-hit second baseman who improved each year at Tennessee en route to a College World Series title as a junior, Moore measures in at 6-foot-1, 210 pounds and is bigger and stronger than the average keystone prospect. Moore had instant success in pro ball, hitting .545 with one homer and zero strikeouts in two games at Single-A before getting the bump to Double-A, where he slashed .322/.378/.533 with five home runs and a 29.6 percent strikeout rate in 23 games. His BABIP was well over .400 and his contact rate was just over 70 percent, but Moore's whole game is built around impacting the baseball, and he did that while most of the other top college hitters in his class were producing less at lower levels of the minors. There's room for Moore at second base if the Angels are willing to play Luis Rengifo over Anthony Rendon at third base, which it sounds like they will be, so opportunity shouldn't be an issue. The bigger question is whether Moore makes enough contact as a rookie to be a net positive in mixed fantasy leagues. Read Past Outlooks

Returns from IL
2BLos Angeles Angels
August 3, 2025
The Angels reinstated Moore (thumb) from the 10-day injured list, and he will start at second base and bat eighth Sunday versus the White Sox.
Analysis
Moore has been sidelined for the past month due to a thumb sprain but will rejoin the 26-man active roster after going 5-for-11 with two doubles and a home run during a four-game rehab assignment at Single-A Inland Empire. In his first 18 MLB games prior to the injury, the 22-year-old had yet to get on track for the Halos with a .189/.302/.396 slash line and 31.2 percent strikeout rate, though he has showcased his power potential with three long balls.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Should debut in 2025
2BLos Angeles Angels
October 17, 2024
According to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com, Angels team owner Arte Moreno indicated Moore could be a lineup regular in 2025.
Analysis
The 21-year-old was drafted eighth overall by the Halos in July and moved up to the Double-A level by the end of the campaign, where he had a .322/.378/.533 slash line with five homers in 23 games. The organization hasn't been shy about promoting its top prospects over the past few years -- prime examples being Nolan Schanuel, Zach Neto and Ben Joyce -- and Moore could be the next player to make a quick ascent to the majors.
