2026 Fantasy Outlook
After his production cratered in 2024, Torkelson rebounded in a major way last season, jumping back over 30 homers with a career-best .789 OPS for the Tigers. He did not enjoy the same success in the postseason (.579 OPS). Still, it was an impressive response to a challenging season the year prior, with Torkelson showing improved patience albeit with a similar level of swing-and-miss. The strikeouts along with his extreme flyball tendencies (51.9 FB% last season) make him a liability in batting average, to the point where a return to the .240s seems unlikely. In addition to his inconsistency at the plate in recent years, Torkelson has largely struggled at first base. The pressure is still on for the 2020 No. 1 overall pick to show that he can make up for those defensive deficiencies. Read Past Outlooks
