2023 Fantasy Outlook
Reports of Martinez's demise may have been exaggerated. His 2022 season was a bit of a disappointment, though he was an American League All-Star for the fifth time in his career. Martinez managed only 16 homers across 596 plate appearances for the season, including only one in a 38-game span from July 11 to Aug. 30. Once one of the game's most feared sluggers after some well-documented swing and approach changes, Martinez is no longer that, but the power is not completely gone as evidenced by his career-high 43 doubles in 2022. He endured some tough HR/FB luck in the middle of the season and should be expected to rebound in 2023 -- just not to 2017-19 levels. The Red Sox declined to extend Martinez the qualifying offer, but he was scooped up by the Dodgers, and the better surrounding lineup could help his counting stats. Read Past Outlooks

Goes yard again Tuesday
Martinez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI in Tuesday's loss to the Reds.
ANALYSIS
Martinez kicked off the fourth with a solo homer to left and tacked on an additional RBI with a sacrifice fly. Dating back to May 15, the 35-year-old has notched at least one hit in 18 of 19 games and is slashing .321/.333/.769 with 10 homers, 25 RBI and 15 runs scored over that span. He sits at 15 home runs and 43 RBI through 45 games this season after having just 16 homers and 62 RBI in 139 games for Boston in 2022. It's unlikely he sustains his recent pace at the plate, but Martinez has certainly looked comfortable in his first year as a Dodger thus far.

Stat Review
How does J.D. Martinez 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.

Martinez struggled in 2020 with a .213 average, torpedoed by a near 100-point drop in his BABIP to .259. There was a lot of trepidation toward drafting him as a result. He answered all doubters with a 1.169 OPS in April, and hit for a .805 OPS over the rest of the season. While a near-.800 OPS is not ideal, it is similar to the rates of Nolan Arenado (.807 OPS) and Mitch Haniger (.804 OPS). He's a rosterable player, but not the same player who was consistently hitting 40-plus homers with a .300 average. His maxEV used to be around 115 mph, but it's closer to 113 mph the last three seasons. With less power, he's compensated by raising his launch angle each season since 2018 (from 10.8 degrees in 2018 to 16.9 degrees last season, while his GB% was near a career low). His HR/FB has been cut in half since 2017, going from 33.8% to 15.7% last year. Right now, his profile screams good, not elite. Pay for the good, and hope he has the ability to bring back his old self one more time.
