Rejoins San Francisco
Welker (shoulder) re-signed with the Giants on a minor-league deal Nov. 19.
ANALYSIS
Welker opted to stick around in the Giants organization after he was designated for assignment Nov. 16 and then cleared waivers. The 25-year-old corner infielder previously saw 19 games of big-league action with the Rockies in 2021, but he was sidelined for nearly the entire 2022 campaign while recovering from left shoulder surgery. It's unclear if he'll be back to full health for spring training.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
2018
2017
Welker was added to the Rockies' 40-man roster in November of 2020. He spent the summer under the team's watchful eye at the alternate site as part of Colorado's 60-man pool. Welker absolutely crushed at the lower levels of the minors and was above league average by wRC+ at Double-A in 2019. His strikeout rate against Double-A arms was just 17.3% at age 21 and Welker reached double-digit homers while maintaining a walk rate right around 8% even with the jump in competition. Welker has also shown a splash of speed, stealing seven bases in nine attempts from 2018-19. Most of his time has been spent at third base, but Welker can also play first, and now that he's on the 40-man, Welker looks primed to debut in 2021. The appeal here in dynasty is the future ballpark, which will in theory prop up a respectable-but-modest skill set (by MLB standards).
