Matt Olson Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)

Matt Olson projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections by Steamer are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.

Matt Olson Fantasy Outlook For 2022

Grey Albright Player Summary
It took a few years of me waiting for Olson to be god-like. To become Allahson, to misquote Elvis Costello. Then, I looked at Olson’s career numbers and I’m like, 'Wait, uh, what wait?' Clunky expositional question aside, Olson’s never been bad except for the 2020 season, and, seriously, once and for all, thy kingdom come, may we never reference the 2020 season again. It was a weird year, and, seriously, I think it’s best to look at all players’ stats like this 2018, 2019, 2021. Maybe there’s something to gleam every once in a while from 2020, but for the most part, 2021 or skip a year back. If we do that, Olson’s number are 36/.267, then 39/.271. There’s no mystery here at all. He’s clearly a 35+ homer, .265 hitter. This is why he’s hot.
