Fantasy Baseball Player Notes

J.T. Realmuto's 2024 season saw a slight decline in offensive production, as he posted a .266/.322/.429 slash line with 14 home runs, 47 RBIs, 50 runs scored, and 2 stolen bases over 380 at-bats. His average exit velocity was 89.2 mph, with a hard-hit rate of 46.6% and a barrel rate of 10.4%. At 33, it's uncertain if he can rebound to his previous elite form. Despite the downturn, Realmuto's track record and defensive prowess keep him relevant in fantasy baseball, but managers should temper expectations and monitor his performance closely in the upcoming season.
