2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bethancourt worked as Tampa Bay's 1A option behind the plate in 2023, but he was waived in the offseason after he posted a .225/.254/.381 slash line in 104 games. He had decent power with 11 homers and was solid behind the plate but had a 27.4 percent strikeout rate and 4.0 percent walk rate. The veteran backstop latched on with the Marlins and will provide a veteran presence alongside Nick Fortes. Bethancourt is a capable big leaguers but is unlikely to have much fantasy utility.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2017
2016
2015
2014
2013
2012
Bethancourt played in the majors last season for the first time since 2017, and he put together a solid campaign between Oakland and Tampa Bay with a 101 wRC+ (.252/.283/.409 slash line). He was also a strong defender behind the plate, putting him in position to potentially start for the Rays in 2023. A 3.6 percent walk rate leaves much to be desired, but his average and slugging should be replicable with a .255 xBA and .449 xSLG that indicates he deserved some better results. Bethancourt is unlikely to work as an everyday catcher but should at least split time with Francisco Mejia, who so far has failed to live up to his prospect hype.
