Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Coming out of the break, Devers .324/.379/.602 was pacing for a career-best year. He then spent 10 days on the IL with a sore hamstring. After returning, Devers was unable to recapture form, posting a .248/.325/.383 line the rest of the way. Other than the 1.5-mph drop in fly-ball exit velocity, Devers' underlying skills weren't much different over the second half, but his BABIP dropped from .353 to .289. For the season, he still managed a career-best 140 wRC+, but a drop in homers and a less potent Red Sox lineup resulted in fewer than 90 runs and 90 RBI for Devers. He eclipsed the century mark in each of the prior two full seasons. His defense remained below average, but he showed signs of improvement. With Devers still just 26-year-old, his best season is probably yet to come. He doesn't run, but Devers crushes the rest of the categories. He may not be first-round material, but he's in the discussion. Read Past Outlooks

While he arrived there a little differently, Devers essentially matched 2019's breakthrough campaign, posting a 134 wRC+, two ticks higher than in 2019. Devers hit for a higher average two years ago, but last season he set a new career best with 38 homers. Hitting flyballs at a greater frequency and with a career-high avgEV fueled the spike. Devers recorded a career-low 36.1% chase rate, though it was still five points above league average. However, he was a bit more aggressive within the zone, showing signs of maturing plate discipline. Defense remains a huge issue as Devers' -13 defensive runs saved was by far the worst mark at the hot corner, though it appears a position change is at least a year away. Devers doesn't run enough to be an elite fantasy batter, but he checks all the other boxes: durability, great home park, solid lineup and young enough to get better. Draft with confidence.
