2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kingery has become a cautionary tale for signing players to long-term contracts before they reach the majors. He inked a six-year, $24 million deal with the Phillies prior to his debut in 2018 and was mostly a disaster in Philadelphia, receiving a total of just 143 plate appearances from 2020 to 2021 and none since 2022. Kingery kept plugging away in the minors, though, most recently slashing .268/.316/.488 with 25 home runs and 25 stolen bases at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2024. That piqued the interest of the Angels, who traded for Kingery over the offseason and added him to their 40-man roster. Now 30, Kingery is in a good spot to pick up playing time for a club with injury and/or production questions along its infield and in center field. He's a complete wild card but one that comes with some power and speed. Read Past Outlooks

Sent down to Triple-A
The Angels optioned Kingery to Triple-A Salt Lake City on Monday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis
Kingery's contract was selected June 11, but the utility player will return to Triple-A after going 2-for-9 (.222) with a stolen base and four strikeouts during his stint with the Halos. A corresponding move has yet to be announced.

Stat Review
How does Scott Kingery compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2016
Kingery tested positive for COVID-19 during summer camp, something the Phillies will hope accounts for the entirety of his severe struggles last season. Only one player who came to the plate at least 120 times had a wRC+ lower than his 37, the result of his .159/.228/.283 slash line. He homered just three times and didn't attempt a single steal. A .200 BABIP accounted for some of his struggles at the plate, but a low BABIP should be expected when you simply don't hit the ball hard, as Kingery's average exit velocity dipped from 88.4 mph to 85.3 mph. Statcast does think he deserved far better than he got, though it's not as if his .221 xBA or .406 xSLG were particularly exciting marks. If the 26-year-old's struggles can be entirely attributed to the virus, he could be an interesting bounceback pick, though excitement should be muted even then, as previous seasons weren't anything special.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Pushing for another chance
Kingery has positioned himself to potentially be promoted by the Phillies with 13 homers and an .804 OPS in 54 games at Triple-A Lehigh Valley this year, per Adam Aaronson of The Philly Voice.
Analysis
The 30-year-old inked a six-year, $24 million extension in March of 2018 prior to making his MLB debut, but he hasn't seen action in the majors since 2021. Kingery has a career .667 OPS in 325 big-league games, and he's found more power at Triple-A early in 2024, having already matched his homer total from last season. Philadelphia's poor injury luck would likely need to continue to get worse for Kingery to be promoted in the near future, but he's played well enough to put himself in consideration for a roster spot should the situation present itself.
