Player Outlook
Isaac Paredes had a wonderful breakout season becoming a full-time threat in the Tampa Bay lineup while playing three of the four infield positions. Paredes has a simple approach in that he is up there to pull baseballs, ideally over the fence since he is not the fleetest of foot. Paredes hit all 31 of his homers to left field, and in fact has hit all 53 of his career major league homers to left field. Not only does he pull a lot of baseballs, he also hits a high volume of flyballs which limits his batting average upside despite that he is both accepting of walks and does not strike out as much as one would imagine. His 98 RBI season appeared with him hitting .295 with runners in scoring position after hitting just .175 in those same situations in 2022. RISP production is not a skill so this could evaporate as quickly as it appeared which means the variability of his potential fantasy value in 2024 is rather wide. 2022 is a reminder of his downside.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Expecting to be pitched differently

    Paredes focused on hitting breaking balls this winter in anticipation that pitchers will attack him differently in 2024, Kristie Ackert of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Paredes broke out with 31 home runs in 2023, 20 of which came off fastballs. Heading into 2024, he expects to see pitchers mix in more breaking and offspeed pitches to mitigate his ability to pull the ball for power, and he took batting practice from a hitting machine throwing breaking pitches this offseason to prepare. Paredes also noted he may have to be willing to settle for putting the ball in play regularly as opposed to consistently hunting for the long ball.
