Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Heim appeared set to fill a part-time role in 2022 after the Rangers acquired Mitch Garver, but Heim ended up working as the team's primary backstop as Garver mostly served as a designated hitter before undergoing season-ending elbow surgery. Heim took advantage of the playing time and delivered a .781 OPS with 12 home runs during the first half of the season, but he struggled after the All-Star break with a .181/.279/.311 slash line. Despite the second half struggles, he showcased better plate discipline throughout the campaign and finished with a 9.2 percent walk rate, up from 5.4 percent in 2021. Garver is expected to be cleared for catching duties by Opening Day, but Heim flashed well enough last season to warrant regular reps behind the plate, especially since he's the far superior player defensively. Still, Heim's fantasy appeal would likely be limited to AL-only formats if he and Garver are splitting time. Read Past Outlooks

Gets breather Friday
Heim is out of the lineup Friday against the Mariners.
ANALYSIS
Sandy Leon will catch and bat ninth versus the Mariners and right-hander Luis Castillo as Heim grabs a bit of rest. Heim handled the catching duties in all three games of the Rangers' previous series at Detroit.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
A very strong defensive backstop, Heim played roughly half the time for Texas last season, hitting .196/.239/.358 with 10 home runs and three steals in 285 PA. He belongs on a big-league roster, but the Rangers traded for an upgrade atop the depth chart, acquiring Mitch Garver from the Twins shortly after the lockout. Garver's biggest weakness is his durability, so Heim could still set a career best in plate appearances this year. However, the Garver acquisition relegates Heim primarily to AL-only appeal.
