2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bogaerts delivered six homers and a .914 OPS in his first month with the Padres, but the summer months weren't quite so productive. The veteran shortstop also had a 1.122 OPS during the final month of the season, but his .244/.308./358 slash line in between made for an underwhelming debut campaign in San Diego. In total it was a solid overall season with 19 homers, a career-high 19 steals, 83 runs and 58 RBI to go along with a .790 OPS, though that production certainly doesn't live up to the 11-year, $280 million contract he signed last offseason. His hard-hit rate also dropped over five points to 34.3 percent, while a .252 xBA and .395 xSLG indicate he was fortunate to hit .285 and slug .440. Bogaerts has regularly outperformed those expected figures throughout his career and may continue to do so, but less hard contact will make that trend more difficult to maintain. He's likely to be a productive fantasy shortstop again in 2024 and could improve his counting stats if the Padres' lineup gets back on track, but Bogaerts' longer-term outlook is looking a bit less rosy heading into his age-31 campaign.

Idle Saturday
Bogaerts isn't in the Padres' lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers.
ANALYSIS
Bogaerts has been rather underwhelming to start the season, slashing .219/.275/.297 through 69 plate appearances. He'll get a chance to regroup Saturday while Tyler Wade starts at second base, allowing Eguy Rosario to cover third.

Stat Review
How does Xander Bogaerts 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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Potential sell-high candidate
Bogaerts is delivering a .305/.343/.379 slash since the All-Star break, but his lack of home runs or stolen bases makes him an underwhelming fantasy star.
ANALYSIS
Posting just one homer and three stolen bases across 95 at-bats over the past month, Bogaerts isn't providing much categorical production outside of his batting average. He remains a quality shortstop bat, but it's possible that his perceived trade value in fantasy markets could net more production. The 30-year-old has 11 homers and 12 stolen bases in total this season.

Bogaerts has been consistently productive without an impressive Statcast page. Last season, he again parlayed outstanding plate coverage into a solid campaign, posting a 134 wRC+, the second highest of his career. Bogaerts' homers usually emanate from turning on mistakes, but he was unable to do it as often in 2022, perhaps due to lingering shoulder and other assorted woes. The drop in power was mitigated by a .362 BABIP, above his career .336 mark. However, it was driven by a .356 BABIP on grounders, over 50 points above his career norm. Defense has always been an issue, but last season Bogaerts vowed to improve, and he did, finishing third for the AL Gold Glove at shortstop. Bogaerts opted out of his contract and landed a massive 11-year deal with San Diego. His skills will play anywhere, but there is no denying this is a downgrade in park factors for the right-handed hitter. Nagging injuries have been an issue, but Bogaerts is still one of the best fantasy shortstops.
