As the final weekend of fantasy baseball drafts approaches, savvy managers are preparing to capitalize on undervalued hitters for the 2025 season. With waiver wire activity heating up, a focus on process-oriented stats like barrel rate and contact percentages can reveal potential breakout hitters. A tailored leaderboard based on these stats has identified 20 hitters who outperformed league averages yet are not commonly drafted within the top 200 picks.

This list includes players like Lars Nootbaar, known for his power metrics, and Jonathan Aranda, whose early season struggles might tempt some to overlook his underlying potential. Others such as Austin Wells and Jorge Polanco bring intriguing combinations of contact and power, making them worth monitoring as the season progresses.
