2025 Fantasy Outlook
Goodman was picked up across a number of leagues amidst stretches of semi-regular playing time in Colorado, but his batting average ultimately settled at just .190. He hit .160/.189/.270 away from Coors Field. After being drafted in the fourth round in 2021, Goodman shot through the farm system, taking advantage of the favorable hitting conditions throughout the Rockies organization. That success has not yet translated to the highest level. Even with 14 home runs in 93 MLB games to date, Goodman has a career 59 wRC+ as he enters his age-25 season. The selling point here is catcher eligibility (23 appearances in 2024), but there is no track record in the majors to stand on. It's possible Goodman is not even on the big-league roster to begin the season given that he has multiple minor-league options remaining and no clear defensive home between catcher, outfield and first base.

Goodman is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
ANALYSIS
Goodman has been a top-three catcher for traditional fantasy leagues so far this season on account of his .275 average, seven homers, one steal, 31 RBI and 25 runs scored. He has been anchoring the Colorado lineup in the No. 3 spot but will get a rare day off with the Rockies playing an early-afternoon game on Memorial Day. Jacob Stallings will catch for starter Carson Palmquist while Nick Martini serves as the designated hitter.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
A fourth-round pick in the 2020 MLB Draft out of the University of Memphis, Goodman tore his way through the Rockies' minor-league system, posting a combined .924 OPS with 72 home runs and 229 RBI in 263 games between Low-A Fresno, High-A Spokane, Double-A Hartford and Triple-A Albuquerque. Many of those affiliates play in hitter-friendly ballparks and Goodman mostly struggled in his first taste of MLB action down the stretch in 2023, but to gloss over what he did on the farm seems foolish given that he'll have the pleasure of taking half of his big-league at-bats within the confines of Coors Field. The 24-year-old appears poised to be a regular presence in the Colorado lineup out of the gate in 2024 and has the feel of a sneaky breakout candidate in his first full major-league campaign.
