First baseman Abimelec Ortiz was one of five Rangers prospects acquired by the Nationals in the MacKenzie Gore swap.

Ortiz, who turns 24 next month, is the one guy the Nationals picked up here with a chance of offering some fantasy value in deep formats this year. The left-handed batter hit .257/.356/.479 with 25 homers between Double- and Triple-A last season, and while about two-thirds of that was Double-A, he actually fared much better in Triple-A (.283/.388/.565 in 41 games). Odds are that he’ll fall a little short of becoming a quality long-term option as a first baseman against right-handers, but time will tell. He should begin this year in Triple-A, but there isn’t much standing in his way if he impresses.
