2026 Fantasy Outlook
Kepler's one-year, $10 million deal with the Phillies last winter did not work out particularly well for him or the team. By late June, he was complaining to the media that he wasn't playing everyday like he thought he was promised, but given that he was hitting just .213/.304/.383 at that point while being protected from facing lefties for the most part, he hadn't made much of a case to be elevated beyond a platoon role. Things didn't really change the rest of the way, as he started just two more times against southpaws after his June 27 interview while slashing .220/.295/.401 overall. On the season, Kepler managed just a 90 wRC+, marking the seventh time in 10 seasons that he's been in the 90s in that category. A consistently slightly below-average bat who played good outfield defense in his prime was good enough to fairly consistent playing time, but with his glove getting worse as he ages, he won't be all that appealing to teams even as a strong-side platoon option going forward.
