27-Year-Old Third Baseman3B
Philadelphia Phillies
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Known for his famous father, seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens, Kody Clemens can now say he made it to the majors as well after debuting in 2022. The younger Clemens appeared in 57 games for the Tigers and proceeded to slash .145/.197/.308 with five homes runs and 17 RBI. He was better at the Triple-A level, as he posted an .862 OPS for Toledo with 13 long balls across 60 games. Clemens also played well at Triple-A in 2021, so he doesn't have much more to prove in the minors, but the question now is whether he can consistently hit MLB pitching. A third-round pick in 2018, Clemens will turn 27 during the 2023 season, so we should have some answers to that question soon. He was traded to the Phillies by the Tigers in January, and his move to a contender clouds his path to have everyday role, though Bryson Stott certainly has yet to establish himself as a clear starter at second base. Clemens can also play at first and third base, as well as in the outfield, so a utility role may be in his future. He is mostly off the fantasy radar for now, but he could see his outlook improve during the season, though he made need an infield injury to see much of an opportunity. Read Past Outlooks

Picking up reps at first base
3BPhiladelphia Phillies
May 31, 2023
Clemens will start at first base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Mets.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old will make his fourth straight start and appears to have temporarily supplanted Edmundo Sosa as a regular in the Philadelphia infield, at least versus right-handed pitching. Clemens has maintained a .308/.372/.462 slash line throughout May heading into the Phillies' final game of the month.
