Jackson Merrill | Fantasy Outlook

Jackson Merrill maintains power-speed upside despite recent batting average slump

Merrill has experienced a brief dry spell with a .156 batting average over the last 14 days, though he snapped an 0-for-9 skid with a two-hit performance on Wednesday. Across his last 30 games, he has still been productive with six homers and 21 RBI, holding down everyday center field duties for a 72-62 Padres club battling for a postseason berth.

While his .238 season average sits lower than our projected .269 mark, his balanced production of 21 home runs and 24 stolen bases makes him an elite power-speed asset. His .822 OPS over the last month demonstrates that his recent contact issues are merely normal variance rather than a lasting decline.

San Diego enjoys an off-day Thursday before finishing the week with a challenging three-game series in Tampa Bay. Merrill will face a stingy Rays rotation featuring Shane McClanahan (3.09 ERA), Nick Martinez (2.97 ERA), and Drew Rasmussen (2.95 ERA, 0.92 WHIP). Despite the difficult pitching matchups, his all-around category impact warrants keeping him in fantasy lineups. Start.
