Rest-of-Season Projections
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Yepez has some Quad-A qualities, but after slashing .289/.382/.589 at Triple-A and .302/.388/.640 in the Arizona Fall League, he is also a trendy sleeper heading into the season. Given that he made contact at a solid clip (18.6 K%) and took his walks (11.7 BB%), there's reason to expect him to hold his own against big-league pitching. Still, it's dangerous to read too much into what a 23-year-old first baseman/designated hitter does in the upper levels of the minors. His pull-heavy approach and middling 27.1 Hard% are added reasons for pessimism. He needs to be close to the best realistic version of himself to earn playing time at those positions. Given that he is on the 40-man roster, Yepez could get the first crack at designated hitter duties this year if the National League gets the DH. Read Past Outlooks

First career three-hit game
Yepez went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and one strikeout during Thursday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.
ANALYSIS
Yepez opened the scoring with a solo blast off Mets starter Chris Bassitt in the second inning. The rookie added singles in the fourth and eighth innings to notch his seventh multi-hit game and his first three-hit contest of his short career.
