2024 Fantasy Outlook
We should always be impressed when 22 year olds hold their own at the major league level considering most players that age are still taking a bus to a small to mid-sized town near you. It is even more impressive when said players do something few others do early in their careers. Henderson was one of five corner infielders with 25 homers, 80 runs and RBIs along with 10 steals joining Walker, Freeman, Bellinger, and Goldschmidt while being five years younger than anyone else in that group. Henderson has been everything as advertised so far at the plate and in the field qualifying at both positions on the left side of the infield. The only fantasy flaw in his current profile is he has been just above average in batting average as his plate discipline is still morphing into what it could be while he continues attempting to figure out lefties who have limited him to a .199 average. Those are flaws you can live with for now while enjoying his continued overall growth Read Past Outlooks
Getting break Saturday
Henderson isn't in Baltimore's lineup Saturday versus the Twins, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Henderson has gone 0-for-6 while having his seven-game hitting streak snapped Thursday, and he'll get a chance to rest Saturday while Jackson Holliday starts at shortstop and bats leadoff.

Stat Review
How does Gunnar Henderson 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

2021
2020
Henderson was shot out of a cannon last season, putting up a .312/.452/.573 slash line and 176 wRC+ with more walks (19.7 BB%) than strikeouts (18.3 K%) as a 20-year-old at Double-A. He subsequently got the bump to Triple-A, and while his production predictably dipped slightly, he still established himself as one of the game's elite prospects and got rewarded with a taste of the majors. Henderson's plus all-fields power is his current top skill for fantasy, and that may always be the case. However, he should also be a good enough hitter to add value in batting average and add significant value in on-base percentage. His 26.4 K% at Triple-A and 25.8 K% in the majors aren't very concerning when considering he won't turn 22 until late June and was well above the league average as a hitter at both stops. The young third baseman stole 23 bases on 27 attempts and has a 91st percentile sprint speed, so he could add double-digit steals over a full season. He primarily hit fifth in the majors and is one of Baltimore's bluechip building blocks, along with Adley Rutschman.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not moving off shortstop
According to Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com, the Orioles are committed to Henderson playing shortstop and aren't expected to entertain shifting positions during the offseason.
ANALYSIS
Henderson split his time between shortstop and third base as a rookie in 2023 but worked as a full-time shortstop this year, and his defense was good enough with a plus-five DRS and minus-one OAA. It's also worth noting that his 25 errors were the second most among qualified shortstops, though that stat by itself isn't particularly useful. Regardless of where he's playing in the field, he lived up to his prospect pedigree as a hitter in 2024 as he posted a .281/.364/.529 slash line with 37 homers and 21 stolen bases in 159 regular-season games.
