2023 Fantasy Outlook
Mullins lost more than 100 points off his slugging percentage, but he stole 30 bases for the second consecutive year and thus remains a star in the rotisserie game. His HR/FB was effectively cut in half from 2021, and fittingly, his homer total was essentially halved. Mullins struggled against left-handed pitching, slashing .209/.265/.313 against same-side pitchers compared to .279/.340/.441 against right-handers. Those splits were not nearly as pronounced in 2021, but if they continue, Mullins will leave himself open to platooning, especially if the Orioles do indeed push into a competitive window. The speed is so rare nowadays that Mullins is worthy of early-round consideration in many fantasy formats even if there are lingering questions about his bat. Read Past Outlooks

Lands on IL with strained groin
Baltimore placed Mullins on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a right groin strain.
ANALYSIS
Mullins suffered the injury during Monday's loss to the Guardians while running out a grounder. He's dealing with a Grade 2 strain, but the team is hoping Mullins is out weeks rather than months, general manager Mike Elias told Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com on Tuesday. Baltimore signed Aaron Hicks to a one-year deal in a corresponding move, and he could see regular starts in center field while Mullins is out.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
2020
2019
Mullins had a few vocal proponents before the 2021 season, yet few listened as Mullins was easily had late in many drafts. All Mullins did was have just the 11th 30-30 season in baseball since the 2011 season. It is worth noting that only Ryan Braun (2011, 2012) has posted back-to-back 30-30 seasons in recent memory. Coming into 2021, Mullins' most redeeming value was that he had 110-percent lock on playing time. He clearly had some talent, so a perpetually rebuilding Baltimore team was going to give him as much playing time as his body and skills could pay for. Given little has changed in Baltimore for 2022, Mullins has the same opportunity before him and could even repeat if he can homer more on the road given 22 of his 30 homers came at Camden Yards. If he's traded out of Baltimore, his outlook changes considerably.
