Losing playing time
Gonzalez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez is on the bench for the second straight game, and his time as a regular in the San Diego lineup appears to have come to an end with the recent returns of Luis Arraez and Jason Heyward from the injured list. The 27-year-old Gonzalez should be able to maintain steady playing time against left-handed pitching, filling the short side of a platoon either with Heyward in left field or with Gavin Sheets at designated hitter.

Stat Review
How does Oscar Gonzalez 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
2024
2023
After posting a 125 wRC+ the previous season, the Guardians were counting on Gonzalez to add some pop to an otherwise punchless lineup. Unfortunately, Gonzalez was batting just .192/.213/.288 in early May when he was demoted to Triple-A Columbus. Gonzalez seemed to regain his confidence with a .288/.325/.494 line over 277 plate appearances with the Clippers, prompting a late July recall. The strong-armed outfielder bounced up and down a couple more times over the second half, playing mostly against southpaws. His .222/.250/.323 second half line was marginally better than his early numbers, but the season was still a huge disappointment. A closer look at the underlying numbers reveals Gonzalez's exit velocity, launch angle and HardHit% were nearly identical over 2022 and 2023, though he did fan more last season. Statcast's xBA and xSLG indicate Gonzalez was lucky in 2022 then snake bit last year. The Guardians waived him, but the Yankees claimed Gonzales who could see some work against lefties and as a defensive replacement. He's well off the mixed league radar and needs to return to 2022's contact level to be an AL-only option.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could make roster
Chris Kirschner of The Athletic projects Gonzalez will make the Yankees' Opening Day roster.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old was designated for assignment by the Yankees in January after being claimed from the Guardians earlier in the offseason, but he's made a strong push for a roster spot with a .945 OPS in 16 games during spring training. Even if Gonzalez does make the roster, he wouldn't have much job security as New York's No. 5 outfielder since Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Alex Verdugo and Trent Grisham are locked in as the top four, and that's without factoring in Giancarlo Stanton.
