Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
McKenna has at least stuck around as a bench bat for the Orioles the last two years, but there's not much to like from a fantasy angle. He's hit just four home runs and stolen three bases in 195 career games, logging a mere 369 plate appearances. His slash line in that span is .209/.293/.302, and there's little reason to think he'll have a major breakout without claiming more playing time. A natural center fielder, McKenna is blocked at that position by Cedric Mullins, while a mix of Austin Hays, Anthony Santander and Kyle Stowers figure to be the preferred corner outfielders for Baltimore in 2023. McKenna has decent speed, but he's simply not utilized enough to challenge for the 15-20 steals that could make him a specialist in fantasy. Read Past Outlooks

Starting in center field
McKenna is starting in center field and batting eighth on Thursday versus the Yankees, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
McKenna's playing time usually comes against lefties, but he's getting the call here versus righty Clarke Schmidt. Cedric Mullins will receive a day of rest.
