2024 Fantasy Outlook
Given that he missed the final two months of the 2023 season due to post-concussion syndrome, Rizzo's draft-day cost is going to vary widely from league to league in 2024. The concussion happened during an awkward collision with Fernando Tatis in May -- three months before Rizzo was actually placed on the IL -- and he later acknowledged that he was having trouble seeing the ball for much of the summer. That shows in his game logs, as he slashed just .170/.271/.224 with one home run in 188 plate appearances between the beginning of June and the end of July. He suffered through a five-strikeout game July 30 at Baltimore, a few days before mercifully being shut down. While it was an ugly ordeal, durability is usually one of Rizzo's best skills and he can hopefully put last year in the rearview with a reinvigorating kind of opportunity to feast in the heart of the Yankees' beefed-up batting order. He won't be a consensus top-150 pick again but could certainly return that kind of value. Read Past Outlooks

Goes through agility drills
Rizzo (forearm) went through agility drills on the field Tuesday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Rizzo had been limited to weight-room activities as he recovers from a fractured right forearm, but he's finally been cleared for on-field workouts. He'll continue to ramp things back up, with a return sometime in August being the goal.

Stat Review
How does Anthony Rizzo 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.

Likely by design to take advantage of the short right field porch in Yankee Stadium, Rizzo hit flyballs at a career high 49% clip. It worked as he pulled 16 of his 32 long balls into the right field seats in the Bronx, though Rizzo's 18.4% strikeout rate was its highest since 2014. More flyballs helped sink Rizzo's BABIP to .216, the lowest mark of his career, though the resulting power fueled a 132 wRC+, his best since 2019. Rizzo's contact and hard-hit rates remain solid, but he's approaching the age where skills start to decline. He re-upped with the Yankees on a two-year deal with a buyout/club option for a third year, so the short porch will once again be a bullseye. The elephant in the room is Rizzo has been one of the most shifted players and with the new rules, he could benefit. A buying opportunity exists if the room is ignoring this, but it's unwise to anticipate a huge difference.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Done with Yankees?
According to Chris Kirschner of The Athletic, the Yankees could elect to designate Rizzo -- who was placed on the injured list Tuesday with a fractured forearm -- for assignment rather than return him to the active roster once healthy.
ANALYSIS
That decision won't need to be made for a while since the 34-year-old will be sidelined for at least the next eight weeks, but it's a distinct possibility given his .630 OPS and minus-two DRS this season. Rizzo also has a $17 million club option for 2025, but the Yankees are sure to pay the $6 million buyout. The performance of prospect Ben Rice, who was called up Tuesday and is taking over at first base, could dictate whether or not Rizzo sees the field again for the club.
