    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 66th among OF's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 246th.
  • The current leader among OF's is Juan Soto
  • Can't be doing much worse than he is right now. Failing to live up to expectations is one thing, but playing this bad is another.
  • He hasn't missed that many games lately, but he is listed on the injury report. He may have some nagging injuries with his Wrist (Since Mar 17, 2024). Look at his player news.
