2024 Fantasy Outlook
Walsh had a breakout 2021 campaign when he slugged 29 home runs and made the All-Star team. Since then, though, he's managed a lowly .613 OPS and 32.1 percent strikeout rate across 572 plate appearances at the major-league level. The 30-year-old will compete for a reserve role with the Rangers. Read Past Outlooks
Sitting versus lefty
Walsh is out of the lineup Thursday against the Cubs.
ANALYSIS
The Cubs will send southpaw Justin Steele to the mound to start their season, so the lefty-hitting Walsh will begin Opening Day in the dugout. Ezequiel Duran will instead start at first base and bat seventh.

Stat Review
How does Jared Walsh 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
2023
2022
2021
2020
Walsh had a strong first full season in the majors in 2021 with 29 homers, 98 RBI and an .849 OPS, but he cratered last year and posted a .215/.269/.374 slash line. He also required surgery to address thoracic outlet syndrome and missed the final month of the season, though it's unclear how much the injury affected his 2022 production. The first baseman's strikeout rate spiked to 30.4 percent, while his walk rate fell to 6.0 percent. Pitchers attacked the strikezone more against him last year, and his contact rate dropped more than two percentage points. He was expected to provide some lineup protection for Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani but instead regressed significantly. The offseason acquisitions of Gio Urshela, Hunter Renfroe and Brandon Drury significantly cloud Walsh's outlook for 2023 as he doesn't have a clear path to an everyday role with everyone healthy.
