2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Wade Jr, as well as many of his teammates, underperformed in 2022 as much as the club overperformed in 2021. He is firmly entreched as a strong side platoon outfielder with his inability to handle lefty pitchers, and that is perfectly fine with San Francisco and their fondness for platoon situatios. What was not fine was the 93 wRC+ Wade Jr had last year and how his lack of production impacted fantasy clubs who saw 2022 as a building block rather than an outlier. The young man is still very accepting of walks but defenses position him well as he had a 74-point split between his wOBA without the shift (.347) vs when shifted (.273) There may be some relief for him with the new rules on defensive alignments, but he has a rather hard cap of 475 plate appearances with his inability to hit lefties limiting his value to NL-Only formats.

Avoids arbitration
Wade signed a one-year, $1.375 million contract with the Giants on Friday to avoid arbitration, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Wade took a major step back in 2022, putting up a .665 OPS while being limited to just 77 games due to knee issues. If healthy, the 29-year-old should bounce back to a certain degree in 2023 while playing a variety of positions.

Stat Review
How does LaMonte Wade 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.

Wade is basically the personification of the surprising and amazing 2021 season for the Giants. He was flipped to San Francisco from Minnesota just before the season for Shaun Anderson as the Twins had an outfield roster crunch and were ready to move on from Wade, who had shown little in his two stints at the big-league level. The Giants moved him into a platoon situation and he rewarded them with an excellent strong-side platoon showing, particularly with a number of late-inning heroics (he hit .362/.444/.511 in late and close games). The sample size is too small to be definitive, but he is 5-for-48 in his career against lefties (.104), so we may never see Wade as an everyday player, but NL-only roto players can recognize the value in a hitter that has a 124 wRC+ for his career against righties. LaMonte may not be The Next Big Thing, but he still has some value in certain formats.
