24-Year-Old CatcherC
Houston Astros
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lee debuted for the Astros in 2022 and went 4-for-25 in 12 games. The acquisition of Christian Vazquez at the trade deadline ended any chances of the 24-year-old seeing significant action down the stretch for Houston. Vazquez has joined the Twins in free agency, but Martin Maldonado will be back for 2023, though it's his final year under contract. Maldonado continues to struggle at the play but remains strong as ever defensively, and he should operate as the Astros' primary backstop once again. Lee hit .238 with 25 home runs and 12 stolen bases at Triple-A last season, and he could open 2023 as Houston's backup catcher. However, fellow top prospect Yainer Diaz will be vying for the same opportunity. Read Past Outlooks

Overcomes groin injury
CHouston Astros  AAA
May 10, 2023
Lee (groin) rejoined the Triple-A Sugar Land lineup Friday and has gone 10-for-17 with a home run, four doubles, six runs and five RBI in his last three games.
ANALYSIS
Lee missed just a couple days of action last week with a left groin injury before returning to the lineup with a bang over the weekend. The 24-year-old maintains a spot on the 40-man roster, but he's at least fourth on the organizational catching depth chart with all of Martin Maldonado, Yainer Diaz and Cesar Salazar up with the big club at the moment.
