2023 Fantasy Outlook
Marcano, a portion of the Pirates' return in the Joe Musgrove trade, failed to break camp with the big-league club in 2022 but played regularly from late May to mid-June. He hit .254 and put up a .702 OPS, which was a relative positive compared to the rest of the team's lineup. Nevertheless, Marcano was sent back to Triple-A Indianapolis until early August though he spent the final two months of the season in Pittsburgh. Looking ahead, Marcano will once again have to battle for a roster spot and playing time. His defensive versatility gives him a chance to do so, with his clearest path looking to be at second base. Even so, the most likely outcome is that Marcano is once again organizational depth, getting playing time when either injury or poor performance ahead of him dictates. If he earns regular playing time, Marcano profiles as a patient hitter capable of getting on base and scoring runs. However, his lack of stolen bases and the context of the Pirates' lineup holds back his fantasy potential. Read Past Outlooks
