2023 Fantasy Outlook
Coming off something of a breakthrough 2021 campaign, when he hit 22 home runs and drove in 61, Haase was productive again in 2022 but took a bit of a step back. Despite playing in 12 more games, he only mustered 14 home runs and 44 RBI. Haase at least was clearly a better offensive option behind the plate than Tucker Barnhart, and that led to Haase essentially supplanting Barnhart as the No. 1 catcher as the season went along. Haase also displayed some defensive versatility, as he made 11 starts in the outfield, though that was down from 22 outfield starts in 2021, as the Tigers turned him into more of an everyday backstop. Catcher is a notoriously thin position in fantasy, so there is value in someone who can simply get to double figures in home runs and not be too much of a drain on batting average. That's what Haase has done the last two years for the Tigers, and he seems poised to enter 2023 as a starter, with Barnhart moving on to the Cubs. Now 30 years old, Haase is unlikely to take another significant leap as a player, so fantasy managers should continue to expect steady if not spectacular production. Read Past Outlooks

Stat Review
How does Eric Haase compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2019
Haase received 381 plate appearances - by far the highest mark of his career - the majority of which came behind the plate, though he also picked up some playing time in the outfield. He took advantage of the extended opportunity by displaying some impressive power, slugging 22 home runs while posting a .228 ISO -- good for the eighth-highest mark among catchers with at least 200 PA. Those results were backed by impressive metrics, highlighted by an 88th percentile max exit velocity and 86th percentile barrel rate. On the other hand, there was plenty swing and miss, as he struck out at a 31 percent clip that limited him to a .231 batting average. That could threaten Haase's ability to reach his power and simultaneously reduce his playing time, particularly because Detroit has already added Tucker Barnhart this offseason to serve as the primary backstop. His fantasy value could be salvaged if he continues to get reps in the outfield and at designated hitter, but that's hardly assured with top prospects Riley Greene and Spencer Torkelson set to join the mix.
