2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Aguilar's fantasy value was heavily dependent upon his RBI opportunities, which were aplenty in 2021 when he had the tablesetters in front of him in the lineup. They were not on the roster or hurt in 2022, and thus Aguilar's RBI opportunities evaporated like an ice cube on South Beach in July. His RBI production nearly fell by half in the same amount of plate appearances as he struggled to reproduce his value last season before things got even worse after he was dealt to Baltimore. Yearly splits are a noisy indicator, and Aguilar's wRC+ against lefties shows that with his 128, 145, 86, 158, 114, and 57 scores in recent seasons. He has been league average against righties in that time, but his overall value tanks as he struggles against lefties. Aguilar saw everything crater last season as his StatCast profile went from mostly red to all blue in a hurry with no metric above the 50th percentile. He could end up signing on in a DH platoon situation to start if a club is looking for a rebound, but until he shows signs of life, he can be avoided until late reserve rounds. Read Past Outlooks

Solid spring results at plate
Aguilar is hitting .261 (6-for-23) with two doubles, six RBI, five walks, a hit-by-pitch and three runs across 10 Cactus League games.
ANALYSIS
While he's yet to leave the yard, Aguilar has put forth a productive spring at the plate thus far and encouragingly struck out just twice in 28 plate appearances. Aguilar has never been able to re-ascend to the heights of his career-best 35-homer 2018 season with the Brewers, but he proved he still had some solid pop in his bat a year ago while belting 35 extra-base hits, including 16 round trippers, across 129 games with the Marlins and Orioles. Aguilar is slated to play on a near-everyday basis at either first base or designated hitter to open the 2023 campaign.

Stat Review
How does Jesus Aguilar 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.

Aguilar provided a wonderful reminder that RBI are more about opportunity than actual skill. If not for an early-September knee injury ending his season, Aguilar had a good chance of leading the NL in RBI for a bad Miami club. The big man has enjoyed a career resurgence since being acquired by Miami in 2019 and has been an above-average offensive player playing everyday for the Marlins. He is not an easy out and will accept his walks or put the ball into play when mistakes are made by the pitcher. The ballpark puts a cap on his overall homer numbers, and he'll miss Starling Marte setting the table in 2022, but Aguilar should otherwise continue to compile numbers with unquestioned playing time. He will have the extra motivation of playing for a new contract, and his future value improves should the Universal DH become permanent given his defensive limitations.
