2024 Fantasy Outlook
The big question with Head is how much he will impact the baseball. A premium athlete who should be at least a plus defensive center fielder, Head was selected by the Padres with the 25th overall pick in 2023 and received an under-slot $2.8 million bonus. A lefty hitter who turned 19 this offseason, Head had a 15.3 K% across rookie ball and Single-A, and he shouldn't have any trouble making contact at an acceptable clip below Double-A. However, if he's simply dumping singles into the opposite field and rarely looking to pull the ball in the air, that would be a red flag, even if the overall stat line looks solid. His top fantasy-relevant tool is 70-grade speed that could translate into 30-plus steals in the majors. Read Past Outlooks
