Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lamb spent time with the Mariners and Dodgers last year and slashed .216/.315/.392 with three homers, 13 runs and six RBI over 41 games. Lamb had seemed pegged for the Triple-A Salt Lake roster, but Jared Walsh going to the injured list before the start of the regular season pushed him onto the major-league club. The 32-year-old might wind up with a decent amount of playing time at first base while Walsh is out, and could stick as a reserve player the rest of the season. Read Past Outlooks

Gets MiLB deal with Yanks
Lamb signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Lamb will report to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after slashing .317/.453/.492 across 150 plate appearances for Triple-A Salt Lake, but only .216/.259/.353 over 54 PAs with the Angels this season. The veteran utility player doesn't have a spot on the 40-man roster, and he is likely only an option for a promotion in an emergency.

Stat Review
How does Jake Lamb 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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2016
2015
Lamb opened the 2020 season as the Diamondbacks' left-handed designated hitter, but an early slump pushed him to the bench, where he backed up both corner-infield spots. In early September, Lamb was slashing just .116/.240/.140 with a 34.0 K%, prompting Arizona to designate him for assignment. After Lamb cleared waivers, Oakland signed him to fill in for the injured Matt Chapman. Lamb responded by posting a .267/.327/.556 line, fanning just 16.3% of the time. Small sample caveats apply, but after gaining a reputation as a platoon batter, Lamb fared better facing southpaws the past two seasons. Still just 30 years old, Lamb could land a job as a reserve after his strong finish. The inventory is sufficiently deep to keep Lamb on the fantasy sidelines in mixed leagues, though he's useful in single-league formats as he carries eligibility at first and third in most leagues.
