Fantasy Baseball Player Notes

Francisco Alvarez's 2024 season with the New York Mets was marked by both challenges and resilience. Despite a mid-season thumb injury that sidelined him for seven weeks, Álvarez managed to play in 100 games, posting a .237 batting average with 11 home runs, 47 RBIs, and 39 runs scored. Alvarez's average exit velocity stood at 88.8 mph, with a hard-hit rate of 42% and a barrel rate of 6.7%. He has a lot of upside at a difficult position to fill, but fantasy managers will have to brace for his low batting average.
