2023 Fantasy Outlook
Once an interesting prospect, Calhoun has failed to establish himself across parts of six seasons in the majors, hitting .240/.299/.404 (good for an 84 wRC+) overall. Last season, he appeared in just 22 games and hit just .135/.274/.250. The Yankees will try to get him back on track, but he hasn't given many reasons to believe a sudden improvement is on the horizon. Read Past Outlooks

Sitting Saturday
Calhoun is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Padres.
ANALYSIS
Calhoun will take a seat after he went 3-for-7 with a double, an RBI, a walk and a strikeout while starting the last two contests. Aaron Judge will take over at designated hitter while Oswaldo Cabrera enters the lineup in right field and bats seventh versus San Diego.

Stat Review
How does Willie Calhoun 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.

Calhoun was the key return for Texas when it sent Yu Darvish to the Dodgers at the 2017 trade deadline. He had a breakout season in 2019, but then took a Julio Urias fastball to the face in 2020 spring training just before everything was shut down and struggled through the shortened season once he returned. This past season was derailed when he suffered a fractured forearm from a Kris Bubic fastball and needed surgery to repair the fracture. The past two seasons have been a wash for the talented hitter with 2022 an opportunity to recover his value. He appears to be the projected leadoff hitter in Texas when a righty is on the mound in front of the newly acquired hitters, which should help his runs scored total. Calhoun may also earn more at bats against lefties should he show he is fully recovered from the 2020 and 2021 traumas inflicted on him by southpaw pitchers. Do not write him off just yet.
