Analysis
Hopkins reached the big leagues for the first time in 2023 and appeared in 25 games with the Reds, but after landing with the Tigers last offseason, he played exclusively at the Double-A level in 2024. He turned in an ugly .190/.326/.329 slash line over 95 plate appearances with Double-A Erie before being shut down for the season last May due to a shoulder injury. It's not clear if Hopkins is healthy or not heading into the 2025 season, but the Tigers will let him explore his options in free agency.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hopkins made his MLB debut in 2023 and looked overmatched (38.6 K%) against MLB pitching across two stints. He hit a ton at Triple-A Louisville, slashing .308/.411/.514 with 16 home runs, but it wasn't enough to hold a spot on the 40-man roster. Hopkins was designated for assignment and eventually traded to the Giants ahead of his age-27 season. The Reds could have used Hopkins' right-handed bat in a lefty-heavy outfield, but he was not going to be more than a fringe player. In San Francisco, Hopkins joins a logjam of 12 outfielders on the 40-man roster, and it's unclear what the Giants are planning for him.
