Past Fantasy Outlooks

2024

2023

2022

2023 was a disappointing year for Azocar, as he had a .641 OPS in 55 big-league games and a .695 OPS in 49 games at Triple-A. However, the Juan Soto trade leaves the Friars without any clear answers in the corner outfield, which leaves a wide path to playing time. Azocar doesn't offer much power but totaled 26 steals between the majors and Triple-A last season, and that speed could bring some fantasy value if he's able to hit well enough to stick in the lineup.

Azocar finally got his first taste of the big leagues last season and received a substantial amount of playing time, logging 216 plate appearances over 98 games. As those numbers suggest, much of his work came as a pinch hitter/runner and as a defensive replacement. While he had a few memorable moments at the plate, Azocar didn't make much of an impression with his bat, posting an 81 wRC+ and .075 ISO. The latter is no surprise -- Azocar's approach doesn't portend much power -- but it's concerning that he was able to translate his 96th percentile sprint speed to only five stolen bases in 11 attempts. There's certainly room to grow in that area, though Azocar also needs to work on his ability to take a walk to maximize his base-stealing potential. Defense and speed will be his tickets to sticking in the majors, and his most likely career path is as a reserve outfielder.

Azocar has yet to make his major-league debut, and his .289/.308/.447 slash line in 49 games for Triple-A El Paso last season was merely good for an 81 wRC+. He'll fight for a depth role with the Padres this spring.
