View More NewsMartin Maldonado (hernia, hand) pain-free in spring training
Martin Maldonado is pain-free at Houston Astros spring camp following off-season hernia surgery and a broken hand suffered in the 2022 season.
Fantasy Impact
Maldonado underwent the knife shortly after the Astros won the World Series while the hand healed on its own. Known more for his stellar defense, Maldonado hit a career-high 15 home runs in the 2022 season but hit just .186 with a .600 OPS across 379 trips to the plate. His elite glove will provide him the everyday catcher's spot if he's healthy in 2023.
