2026 Fantasy Outlook

Ewing stole 70 bases in 124 games in the minors last season while emerging as a potential long-term option for the Mets in center field. He received $675,000 in the 2023 draft and was roughly a league average (102 wRC+) hitter at the Single-A level as a 19-year-old in 2024. Ewing returned to Single-A in 2025 and logged a 204 wRC+ in 18 games and got a quick promotion to High-A. He played 78 games at High-A and earned another promotion to Double-A for his last 28 games of the campaign. All told, Ewing slashed .315/.401/.429 with three home runs, a 12.1 percent walk rate and an 18.6 percent strikeout rate. While Ewing's power is the weakest part of his game, he's not an intentional slap hitter, as he hit more balls to the pull side (40.8 percent) than the opposite field (38 percent) and his 40.3 percent groundball rate was a stellar mark. If anything, Ewing put on too much of a laser show, hitting more line drives (31.6 percent) than flyballs (28.2 percent). His realistic ceiling is Nico Hoerner in the outfield, and he's tracking towards an MLB debut in late 2026 or early 2027. Read Past Outlooks

Ewing went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases and a run scored in Friday's 5-0 win over the Padres.

Analysis
Ewing has gone 11-for-43 (.256) with five steals over his last 11 games. The outfielder's speed is promising as long as he can get on base enough to use it. He's batting .253 with a .659 OPS, seven steals, one home run, six RBI, 11 runs scored, one double and one triple across 90 plate appearances. The one red flag in Ewing's numbers so far is his 32.2 percent strikeout rate, which could limit his effectiveness if the hits stop falling.
