2025 Fantasy Outlook

In his third year at Double-A, Workman finally put things together and was rewarded by being chosen in the Rule 5 draft by the Cubs. The former Tiger farmhand is a good defender at third base and can handle second base and shortstop as well. Workman slashed .280/.366/.476 with 18 home runs, 30 steals and a 27.5 percent strikeout rate in 126 games at Double-A, but it's worth noting that Workman had logged 183 games at Double-A prior to 2024. He's heading into his age-25 season and has zero experience above Double-A, so he'll likely play sparingly for as long as the Cubs stash him in the majors. He'll likely hit for a very low batting average if/when he plays in the big leagues this season. Read Past Outlooks

May 14, 2025

Workman cleared waivers Wednesday and was returned to the Tigers, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Analysis
Since being selected by the Cubs in the Rule 5 Draft this offseason, Workman has slashed .188/.235/.250 in the majors and has been cast off the active rosters of both Chicago clubs. He'll now return to his original organization without a spot on the 40-man roster and will presumably report to Triple-A Toledo to serve as organizational depth.
