2025 Fantasy Outlook
France's numbers have been in steady decline and he faces an uncertain future in Major League Baseball. The Mariners designated him for assignment in July, a little over two years after he represented Seattle in the All-Star game. Tough business. Cincinnati brought him in and France took advantage of the comfy confines of Great American Ball Park to boost his batting average, but it was a largely forgettable run nonetheless. His limited defensive utility puts a ton of pressure on his bat. When he's not hitting, it becomes tough to justify keeping him on a big-league roster. He'll compete for a platoon role at first base this spring after signing with the Twins. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year, $1 million contract with the Twins in February of 2025.
Gets on base four times
France went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks, one RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Dodgers.
Analysis
France had a strong game from the No. 5 spot in the order, posting his first multi-hit effort since June 26 versus the Mariners. The first baseman has gone just 5-for-36 (.139) with three walks and seven strikeouts over 13 games in July, which has seen him slip into a fairly even timeshare with Kody Clemens at first base. Luckily for France, a righty, it hasn't become a straight platoon -- he's been in the lineup against three of the last seven right-handed starters the Twins have faced. For the season, France has a .249/.316/.357 slash line, six home runs, 43 RBI, 41 runs scored, 18 doubles and one stolen base across 367 plate appearances. Both France and Clemens could be at risk of losing playing time when Luke Keaschall (forearm) returns from the 60-day injured list, though Keaschall is expected to be more of a utility option once healthy.

Stat Review
How does Ty France compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2021
2020
France looked like a potential fantasy stalwart in the first half of 2022 following solid seasons in 2020-2021, but the right-handed hitting infielder posted just a .646 OPS in the second half of that campaign, and his .250/.337/.368 slash was more of the same.His on-base percentage was buoyed heavily by being hit 34 times, and that's the second time over the last three seasons he's ended up the leading baseball in plunkings. His power numbers dropped considerably with just 12 homers in his 665 plate appearances, and a barrel percentage under seven percent (6.8) suggests that wasn't a case of bad luck. He does seem likely to rebound in the average category, as he struck out in just 17.6 percent of his plate appearances last year, and while he hasn't been among the league leaders in hard contact, the ability to use the whole field while putting the ball in play on a consistent basis should see him closer to the .279 mark he had prior to 2023. Because of the lack of power and a complete lack of speed France is a flawed fantasy player, but a bounceback to the stats he put up from 2020 to 2022 could make him a strong fantasy value in the later rounds.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Limited trade market
France isn't expected to garner much interest on the trade market ahead of the July 31 deadline, reports Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic.
Analysis
After signing a one-year, $1 million contract with Minnesota in February, France had a strong start to the campaign with an .811 OPS through his first 16 contests, which included him being named American League Player of the Week in mid-April. The 31-year-old hasn't found consistent success since then and has a .235/.293/.321 slash line in 63 games since the start of May. France has taken on more of a part-time role lately, and the Twins aren't likely to get much beyond salary relief if they manage to find a trade partner.
