Past Fantasy Outlooks
2008
2007
2006
2005
Ortmeier had a .287/.317/.497 line in 157 at-bats with the Giants last season, showing that he projects better as a reserve than a future regular. Still, he'll likely enter spring training competing with Rich Aurilia and Nate Schierholtz for the team's first base job. Of course, the Giants could always address the position through free agency as well.
After being taken in the third round of the 2002 draft, Ortmeier has failed to impress. He hit .244 with six home runs in 262 at-bats at Triple-A Fresno last season and looks like a future reserve at best.
A 20-20 season at Norwich got people excited, but the year sticks out like a sore thumb, and it wasn't accompanied by great rates. There are contracts in front of him and better prospects behind him too. Ortmeier is not someone to target at your draft.
Ortmeier had a decent Double-A season in 2004 with decent power and speed, and will begin 2005 there again.
