2024 Fantasy Outlook
All's well that ends well? Soto was hitting .202 with five homers and 11 RBI as the calendar flipped to May, making many fantasy managers rather nervous watching their first round foundational pick get off to such a poor start. Soto went on to turn things around, hitting 30 homers, driving in 98, and hitting .290 for the rest of the season to finish as the 16th most valuable fantasy player in our standard rankings. He was one of three qualified hitters with more walks than strikeouts in 2023 and has still not fallen below the .400 mark for a season on-base percentage in his entire career. The batting average has taken a tumble since the 2020-2021 season but the volume is still in place for the other statistics. After getting traded to the Yankees for his final year before free agency, Soto will gain a massive home-park power boost, as Yankee Stadium rates as the second best park for lefty power, per Baseball Savant's park factors, while San Diego rated as the fifth-worst such park. There will be immense pressure on him to produce in pinstripes as his free agency looms next winter. Read Past Outlooks
Sitting for regular-season finale
Soto is absent from Sunday's lineup against the Pirates, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Yankees will start Jasson Dominguez, Aaron Judge and Alex Verdugo in the outfield for Sunday's regular-season finale. Unless he comes in to pinch hit, Soto will end his first season with the Yankees having slashed .288/.419/.569 with a career-best 41 home runs and 109 RBI over 713 plate appearances.

Baseball is an incredibly difficult game, and even players with Hall of Fame skill sets will struggle for stretches. At the end of June, Soto was batting just .224. It leaked in the media that Soto had turned down the Nationals' 15-year, $440 million offer, setting the stage for a blockbuster trade that sent Soto out West for an all-time prospect haul. Batting average, as we know, has its limitations, and in Soto's case his .242 season mark is downright misleading. He still hit the ball with incredible authority and chased pitches outside of the zone at a lower rate than anyone. The Padres did not run much last season under manager Bob Melvin, but everything else sets up well for a big-time rebound in Soto's first full season in San Diego.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to land in Philly
Phillies president Dave Dombrowski said Tuesday that he doesn't think the club "need[s] to add more star players," reports Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer, which could indicate there's no plans for a serious pursuit of Soto.
ANALYSIS
Philadelphia has been speculated as a possible landing spot for the 25-year-old, but Dombrowski could prioritize adding multiple other pieces rather than making a big splash to improve an already expensive lineup. Soto totaled 41 homers, 109 RBI and 128 runs with a .988 OPS in 157 games for the Yankees during the regular season, and both New York clubs are likely to be the early favorites once free agency begins.
