2024 Fantasy Outlook
Terence Mann told us in Field of Dreams that the one constant through all the years is baseball. He was wrong; the one constant is Devers continues to rake in Boston whether they are in a boom year contending for a title or a bust year beginning another refresh cycle as the club was in 2023. Devers finished just inside the top 30 overall fantasy players in 2023 despite the lineup issues around him with the early injury to Duvall and the ups and downs of the the youngsters Casas and Duran. Devers continued his Saberhagenmetric cycle of 30 homer & 100+ RBI seasons in odd-numbered seasons but may have fallen into the trap of the new shifting rules. Devers had his highest pull percentage in five seasons and hit for his lowest full-season batting average since 2018. His StatCast measures are still extremely red, in a good way, nearly across the board as he enters the prime years for power hitters. Read Past Outlooks
Homers, scores two
Devers went 2-for-3 with a homer and one RBI, scoring twice in Boston's 5-2 win against Detroit on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
The third baseman remains a linchpin in Boston's retooled lineup and certainly appears to be regular-season ready. Devers won't have much name-brand support in the order besides Trevor Story, but it's hard to imagine Devers not getting close to his 2023 season in which he tallied 33 homers and 100 RBI.

Stat Review
How does Rafael Devers 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
Taking on more leadership
Devers is expected to be the Red Sox's unquestioned leader in the locker room following the departures of Xander Bogaerts, J.D. Martinez, Nathan Eovaldi and Christian Vazquez, per Joon Lee of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Manager Alex Cora already characterized Devers as a leader for the club, but much more of that burden will fall to the third baseman in 2023 with so many longtime teammates now in different uniforms. Devers, however, won't be going anywhere anytime soon after he agreed to a 10-year, $313.5 million extension with Boston in January. The 26-year-old had an .879 OPS with 27 home runs and 88 RBI in 141 games last season.

Coming out of the break, Devers .324/.379/.602 was pacing for a career-best year. He then spent 10 days on the IL with a sore hamstring. After returning, Devers was unable to recapture form, posting a .248/.325/.383 line the rest of the way. Other than the 1.5-mph drop in fly-ball exit velocity, Devers' underlying skills weren't much different over the second half, but his BABIP dropped from .353 to .289. For the season, he still managed a career-best 140 wRC+, but a drop in homers and a less potent Red Sox lineup resulted in fewer than 90 runs and 90 RBI for Devers. He eclipsed the century mark in each of the prior two full seasons. His defense remained below average, but he showed signs of improvement. With Devers still just 26-year-old, his best season is probably yet to come. He doesn't run, but Devers crushes the rest of the categories. He may not be first-round material, but he's in the discussion.
