It has been an up-and-down season for Rhys Hoskins. Signed by the Brewers as a relatively major free agent, he was expected to provide stability and homers to a very young offense. It hasn’t been the smoothest path, which we’ll examine a bit below, but after a couple of rough months, Hoskins has found an offensive groove, and on the whole, he now resembles the player he was in Philadelphia, even if his approach has changed a bit over the years.
Hoskins did not play in 2023. Entering his walk year with the Phillies, he tore his ACL late in spring training.
