Scouting Report: Mike Yastrzemski
Atlanta Braves | RF
Overall
Summary
Mike Yastrzemski has shown significant improvement after a slow start to the 2026 season. After struggling through the first month with a .200 batting average and 37-game home run drought, Yastrzemski broke through on May 12 with a 2-for-2 performance including his first home run of the season and 3 RBIs against the Cubs. He followed this up with a clutch 10th-inning single on May 15 to beat the Red Sox 3-2. Manager Walt Weiss remained confident in Yastrzemski throughout his struggles, citing his strong work ethic, high baseball IQ, and successful swing adjustments from his time with Kansas City. Despite early season struggles and a two-year, $23 million contract, Yastrzemski has demonstrated resilience and is now showing signs of breaking out of his offensive slump.
