2023 Fantasy Outlook
At the end of last season, Abreu's fantasy managers were left wondering one thing: Where did the power go? Abreu managed a mere four home runs after the All-Star break, slugging .414 in 67 games after the intermission. He hit only one homer in his final 55 games. It wasn't just the power -- Abreu's strikeout and walk rates both went in the wrong direction in the second half. So, was he simply pressing or is this the beginning of the cliff for Abreu? He will be 36 at the start of the 2023 season. He still had outstanding season-long marks in exit velocity and hard-hit rate, per Statcast, despite the late power outage. Father Time is undefeated, but Abreu seems like a strong bounce-back candidate given his glimmering track record of both performance and durability. He finds himself in a perfect situation to put up significant runs and RBI as Houston's new starting first baseman after inking a three-year deal this offseason. Read Past Outlooks

Goes yard, grabs bag in win
Abreu went 1-for-3 with a three run home run and a stolen base, adding two runs and three RBI in Thursday's 10-3 victory over the Rangers in Game 3 of the ALCS.
ANALYSIS
Abreu has continued to develop upon his recent late-season power-hitting success right into the playoffs. He had a .505 slugging percentage over 93 at-bats in September, but he is now up to a .677 mark in 31 ABs since the postseason began. One area Abreu did not cover during the regular season was stolen bases, and Thursday was the first time Abreu has stolen a base all year and the first time in his postseason career. In the current playoff run, Abreu is slashing .258/.343/.677 with eight runs and 11 RBI, adding four home runs and Thursday's stolen base in 31 at-bats.

Stat Review
How does Jose Abreu 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.

After an MVP season in 2020, Abreu went back to being his normal, still-incredible self in 2021. He hit his 30 homers and contended for the league lead in RBI, finishing second behind Salvador Perez. His batting average was a career-low .261 due in large part to a career-low .293 BABIP. There is no major red flag here, but there are several small issues: a six-year high in his GB%; the second-highest Pull% of his career (i.e. hits into the shift more); his sprint speed and home-to-first times were his slowest in five years. It's tough to project any improvement as he enters his age-35 season. The hope will be that he simply maintains and doesn't fall off a cliff. All of his power metrics stayed constant. His walk and strikeout rates were career bests. It should just be more of the same from this middle-of-the-order power bat, though his batting average may end up closer to .250 than .300.
