2026 Fantasy Outlook
Rortvedt improbably proved to be invaluable down the stretch for the Dodgers last season, filling in as the team's starting catcher after Will Smith and Dalton Rushing both went down with injuries. That was a role few could have imagined after the journeyman backstop was DFA'd by Tampa Bay in late May. Rortvedt didn't exactly tear the cover off the ball during his time with the Dodgers, but he managed a .636 OPS over 18 games, which would have been a career-best mark over the span of a full season. There's nothing about Rortvedt's profile that is exciting in terms of fantasy -- his most valuable asset is his glove, and on offense he's a low-power, no-speed type who is probably best served trying to work a walk. Rortvedt was claimed off waivers by the Reds during the offseason, but Cincinnati already has Tyler Stephenson and Jose Trevino as catching options, so it's unclear how Rortvedt fits into the team's plans.
