2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hinds did his best Aristides Aquino impression last season, bursting onto the scene before pulling a disappearing act. His run was brief but insane, as Hinds became just the second player in history to hit five home runs in his first six games. The Reds didn't seem to put much stock into it, which was understandable given the minuscule sample and Hinds' sky-high strikeout rate in the minors. He logged a mere seven plate appearances in September when the Reds were well out of playoff contention, which speaks to just how poor the body of work was at Triple-A Louisville. His power/speed combo will keep him on the radar, but the 24-year-old will need to cut down on the swing and miss in his game if he's going to have a chance at long-term success against big-league pitching.

Continues to flash power potential
OFCincinnati Reds
May 8, 2025
Hinds went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double and a walk in Thursday's extra-inning loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Making just his second appearance of the season so far, Hinds took Atlanta closer Raisel Iglesias deep for a go-ahead two-run homer in the ninth inning. Hinds has flashed plenty of slugging potential during his brief major-league career -- he's now slashing .269/.345/.750 with six big flies, five doubles and 13 RBI along with two stolen bases over 58 lifetime plate appearances -- but he's struggled to lock down a consistent spot on the Reds' roster. The right fielder could get a chance to carve out a stable role while Noelvi Marte (oblique) is on the injured list, but there's no guarantee Hinds will stick around with the big-league club once Marte is healthy.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2021
In 58 games from June 11 through the end of the season, Hinds slashed .324/.398/.671 with 18 home runs, 11 steals and a 25.1 percent strikeout rate as a 22-year-old at Double-A. The pre-tacked balls were removed from the Southern League mid-season, so that aided his improved play after he notched a 41.9 percent strikeout rate in the first 50 games. A former third baseman, Hinds has a huge arm in right field and moves well for his size (6-foot-4, 215 pounds). The Reds added him to the 40-man roster as Rule 5 draft protection, and it's easy to fixate on his 70-grade raw power in Great American Ball Park. First, he'll need to prove that this newfound ability to make contact at an acceptable clip is sustainable as he moves up to Triple-A. The risk is obvious, but Hinds' 40-homer upside and proximity to the majors are appealing in all dynasty formats.
Hinds, the No. 49 overall pick in 2019, has played just three official games in pro ball, but he impressed evaluators during the fall instructional league, so his dynasty stock is trending up. A quad injury limited the 6-foot-4 third baseman after he was drafted out of high school, but he was invited to the Reds' alternate training site before having a mini coming out party at instructs. Hinds has massive raw power and should be highly regarded by anyone who values max exit velocity (117 mph at instructs), but his surprisingly adequate hit tool is what really upped his stock. Strikeouts will always be a part of his game, but if he can keep his strikeout rate in the 25-30 percent range, he would have 40-homer upside in the majors. Hinds is big, yet athletic, and his cannon of an arm would profile just fine in right field if he has to move off of third base. He should head to Low-A for his age-20 season.
