Fantasy Baseball Player Notes

Juan Soto's 2024 performance reinforced why he's a fantasy powerhouse and contributed to his record-setting deal with the New York Mets this offseason. At just 26 years old by the end of the season, Soto demonstrated exceptional durability by appearing in 157 games. He excelled in his trademark areas, boasting a .419 on-base percentage and a .288 batting average. Soto also delivered career highs with 41 home runs and 128 runs scored while contributing 109 RBIs and seven stolen bases. There are some unknowns regarding his supporting case in New York. While Francisco Lindor is an elite option ahead of him in the order, the rest of their lineup remains an enigma depending on what else they do in free agency. Either way, Soto gives you plenty of opportunity to rack up counting stats. Just beware of a small letdown following the massive contract.
