Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
In his age-33 season in 2024, Tauchman continued to deliver results that were in line with the rest of his MLB career. He appeared in 109 games for the Cubs and posted a .248/.357/.366 slash line with seven home runs and six stolen bases. The left-handed Tauchman posted a .725 OPS against southpaws and a .733 mark against righties, and he's had similar splits over the past few years, so he's not really a platoon player. Instead, Tauchman profiles as a conventional fourth outfielder who can be used regardless of matchup. That proved valuable in 2024, as both Cody Bellinger and Seiya Suzuki missed a handful of games due to injury, but that wasn't enough for the Cubs to tender him a contract for 2025. He then latched on with the White Sox, with whom he should have a clearer path to regular playing time. The additional volume won't necessarily make him a more viable fantasy asset, however.

Impactful in win
Tauchman went 2-for-5 with a double, a two-RBI double and a run scored during Wednesday's 9-4 win over the Mets.

Injuries create opportunities, and Boston Red Sox top prospect Marcelo Mayer is one of a number of players joining the American League talent pool this week looking to take advantage.

The Jays and Rays carry a full slate of games while the Cubs should continue to impress offensively at home.

The American League waiver wire is heating up as potential breakout players like Kyren Paris continue to make noise.

Red Sox hitters look like strong choices this week with four home games against the Blue Jays followed by an away series at the White Sox.

Tauchman turned his career around a bit in 2023 with the Cubs. After struggling to a .181 batting average in 2021 with the Yankees and Giants, the veteran outfielder decided to spend his 2022 season in Korea. The time away seemed to help, as Tauchman lifted his average to .252 over 108 games with Chicago. He also posted a .740 OPS, which was his best mark since recording an .865 OPS for the Yankees back in 2019. The 33-year-old also chipped in eight home runs and seven stolen bases, and he saw some time as the Cubs' leadoff hitter. Tauchman is probably best suited to serve as a fourth outfielder, especially if promising 21-year-old Pete Crow-Armstrong can seize the reins in center heading into 2024. The left-hand hitting Tauchman could be a good platoon partner, though Crow-Armstrong also bats from the left side. Tauchman may ultimately start the year as the primary center fielder, at least until Crow-Armstrong shows he's ready for an everyday role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Resurgent in Chicago
Tauchman is slashing .364/.425/.628 across 77 at-bats since the All-Star break.
ANALYSIS
Tauchman's .284/.375/.442 season-long slash aligns strikingly with his .284/.358/.434 expected slash line for the season. The 32-year-old has been a viable bat and a unique bounce-back story after spending 2022 playing in Korea. That being said, he remains far removed from the fantasy radar outside of the deepest leagues.
