2024 Fantasy Outlook
Marte was limited to only 86 games as he missed time due to migraines, then had his season end in early August due to a right groin issue. It's unclear if Marte's injury is related to the double-groin surgery he underwent in November 2022, but he reportedly does not need more offseason surgery and will be healthy in the spring. After posting a wRC+ between 108 and 134 the previous five seasons, Marte's 76 mark was a career low. Marte's batted ball skills were as good, or better than the previous two seasons where he posted a 132 and 134 wRC+. Marte's average exit velocity was its highest since 2019, and his hard-hit rate was a career best. Barrel percentage was down a bit, piggybacking hitting fewer fly balls. Marte was 24-for-28 in stolen base attempts. All signs point to a rebound but expecting a full bounce back from an injury-prone 35-year-old is a slippery slope. There are ample encouraging signs to take a chance, just don't bank on a full return, and have a backup plan at the ready. Read Past Outlooks

Hopes to resume running this week
Marte (knee) is hoping to begin a running progression this week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Marte resumed baseball activities last week and is looking to continue to ramp up his rehab program. He has been shelved since late June with a right knee bone bruise and will require a rehab assignment before being activated, so the veteran outfielder would still appear to be several weeks away from a return.

Stat Review
How does Starling Marte 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.

Marte did well enough in his debut with the Mets even though many will likely label it a disappointment for what he did not do. Marte's regular season was prematurely ended with a broken finger after being hit by a pitch and he missed 34 games in all in the regular season. His run production numbers were close to what he did between Miami and Oakland in 2021, but there was a dramatic drop in both his stolen base attempts as well as his success rate as his success fell from 90% to 67%. Buck Showalter has never been a huge fan of aggressively stealing games, so that kind of success rate could put a cap on what Marte does in 2023 even with the new rules in play. He did bounce back from a poor success rate in 2018 by converting 86% of his attempts from 2019-2021 so he absolutely deserves another crack at it. The next plateau will be him exceeding 550 plate appearances, something he has done but once in the previous six full seasons.

Chance to be moved?
The Mets could look to trade Marte this summer if the club is out of the playoff picture, per Jeff Passan of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Coming off a down 2023 that saw him play in just 86 games due to migraines and a groin injury, Marte has rebounded early this year with a .280/.329/.421 slash line through 57 games. He's still showing decent pop and speed during his age-35 campaign with six homers and 10 stolen bases. Marte is making $20.75 million both this season and next season, so the Mets may need to pay down some salary if they really want to facilitate a deal.
