Stat Review
How does Taylor Motter 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.

A few NL hitters have impressed since being promoted, and Jan Levine reviews a couple of them in this week's column.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2019
2018
2017
Motter got into just 17 big-league games last season, eight with Seattle and nine with Minnesota. He did nothing to warrant more playing time, going just 5-for-34. The story wasn't any better in the minors, as he stumbled to a .187/.277/.352 line in 88 games at Double-A and Triple-A with the two organizations. The performance was poor enough to earn him his release in August. The 29-year-old has appeared everywhere except catcher and center field in his three-year major-league career, which helps him in the race for a team's final bench spot, but his .191/.263/.312 career line makes an Opening Day roster spot unlikely.
