Julio Rodríguez Fantasy Stats

Seattle Mariners superstar outfielder Julio Rodriguez is off to a slow start to the season, slashing .143/.250/.143 with zero home runs, zero stolen bases, four runs scored, and two RBI. The Mariners' offense as a whole has been struggling; they rank last in MLB in batting average (.184) and runs per game (3.1), and fourth-worst in strikeout rate (27.6 percent). Rodriguez is notorious for being a second-half player; every year he has been in the Majors (since 2022), his second-half numbers have been better than his first half. Last year, for example, he slashed .252/.313/.417 in the first half and .290/.341/.560 in the second half. In 2024, the same story, .267/.318/.372 in the first half and .285/.336/.482 in the second half. Rodriguez is a superstar in this league and has shown it time and time again, so fantasy managers, although they have every right to be frustrated thus far, should not be throwing in the towel or looking to sell low on him after a slow start to the season.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez had fantasy managers a bit nervous early in 2025, as he was hitting .207 with four home runs at the end of April. However, the 25-year-old returned to his elite form the rest of the way, finishing the year with a slash line of .267/.324/.474 with 32 home runs, 95 RBI, 106 runs scored, and 30 stolen bases across 710 plate appearances. Rodriguez's barrel rate dipped below 10% for the first time in his career in 2025, but he also improved his strikeout rate to a career-best 21.4%. If he can merge the best aspects of his power and contact approaches in 2026, Rodriguez could take his game even higher. Even if he simply repeats his established norms, Rodriguez is a true five-category fantasy contributor who should continue to be a max-playing time outfielder as he enters the prime years of his career. Rodriguez is worthy of a first-round selection in fantasy drafts heading into 2026.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez got off to another slow start in 2025 and was hitting just over .207 at the end of April, but the 25-year-old Dominican eventually figured things out, tying a career-high with 32 home runs while adding 95 RBI, 106 runs scored, and 30 stolen bases in a league-high 710 plate appearances over 160 regular-season games. The three-time All-Star and former American League Rookie of the Year has been a 20-homer, 20-steal player in all four of his big-league seasons, with two of them being 30-30 campaigns. He's the youngest player in MLB history with four 20-20 seasons. On top of J-Rod's strong 2025 season, he had a career-low 24.1% strikeout rate. There aren't many better power/speed options to target in the late-first, early-second round of fantasy baseball drafts than Rodriguez.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez starred in a 10-2 blowout of the Atlanta Braves on Saturday. Rodriguez finished 3-for-5 with team highs in homers (two), RBI (four), and runs scored (three) to continue an early September power surge. The 24-year-old has gone deep four times in five games this month and has now reached the 30-HR mark for the second time in four major league seasons. Rodriguez has added 86 RBI, 90 runs scored, and 24 stolen bases for good measure. The three-time All-Star is also slashing a solidly above-average .265/.317/.375 over 628 plate appearances.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez came up clutch for this team during Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Rodriguez got the fun started off early with a two-run home run in the first inning. He continued his hot swinging with a solo blast in the third inning as well. He finished this game 2-for-5 with two homers and three RBI in the win. Rodriguez now has 23 homers on the season and 22 steals to his name. That being said, Rodriguez could very well get to a 30-30 season if everything keeps going his way.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez went yard for the third consecutive game on Sunday in an 8-4 win over the Detroit Tigers. Rodriguez blasted a solo home run off right-hander Jack Flaherty in the third inning, but that was hardly his lone contribution. He also chipped in an RBI double, drew two walks, stole a base, and scored three times in a 2-for-3 afternoon as the Mariners completed a three-game road sweep. Rodriguez terrorized the Tigers all weekend, finishing the series 6-for-12 with three HRs, six RBI, eight runs, two steals, and four walks. An All-Star for the third time this season, Rodriguez enters the break hitting .252/.313/.417 with 14 homers, 50 RBI, 63 runs, and 17 steals in 431 plate appearances. The 24-year-old is poised to begin his career with four 20/20 seasons in a row.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez had a monster game in his team's 15-7 win over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday, going 3-for-5 with a walk, home run, two additional runs scored, three RBI, and a stolen base. The 24-year-old All-Star hasn't lived up to his massive potential so far in 2025, slashing .249/.308/.405 with 13 home runs, 48 RBI, 60 runs, and 16 stolen bases. Even so, Rodriguez remains a high-level fantasy option because of his five-category potential while playing every day in a resurgent Seattle lineup. He won't participate in the All-Star game due to a desire to take time to recuperate, so fantasy managers can hope the extra rest will power him to a big second half.

Shannon Drayer of Sports.MyNorthwest.com reports that Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez will not be able to participate in this season's All-Star game. Per the team, "He will take the break to recuperate, rest, and prepare for the second half." It's an interesting way for that statement to be worded, though the sentiment is clear. The Dominican Republic native has missed only one of Seattle's 93 games thus far, even while dealing with back and ankle ailments, so a few extra days of rest wouldn't be the worst thing for him. Despite the strange syntax, fantasy managers shouldn't worry about any underlying issues, as the organization is likely just keeping their star player fresh for the second half. He's slashing a disappointing .244/.301/.386 in his worst pre-All-Star stretch to date.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez (lower leg) is in Sunday's lineup. Rodriguez will cover center field and bat in the two-hole. The 24-year-old exited Saturday's game after taking a line drive on his foot. However, after the game, his X-rays came back negative, and he was cleared to play on Sunday. Over his last eight contests, Rodriguez has begun to heat up at the plate, posting a strong .387/.406/.452 slash line with a triple, four stolen bases, and a 9:1 K:BB. Before this recent surge at the plate, the former top prospect held a slightly lower .272/.316/.457 line over his last 23 games. This afternoon, Rodriguez is a viable target in DFS facing Los Angeles left-hander Tyler Anderson, who enters this game holding a most 3.86 ERA.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez (ankle) needed to be helped off the field by trainers during Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. It's never a good sign to see a player needing to be helped off the field, but luckily it sounds like Rodriguez has avoided serious injury. The X-rays came back negative, so Rodriguez is currently considered day-to-day with a bruised ankle. The Mariners are hopeful that Rodriguez will be able to avoid a trip to the injured list. The swelling in his ankle could force him to miss a few games, but hopefully he'll return early next week. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update.
