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 2021

Grey Albright Player Summary
This year feels like a free money year. Everyone overplaying what happened in 2020 like it wasn’t some kind of black swan event. Not to get too philosophical here, but just because something just happened it doesn’t mean it will happen again. We’re ranking and drafting for 2021. Mean’swhile, you’re extrapolatin’, ergo drafting for the goofy 2020 year. In 2021, Olson’s contact rates can morph right back to where they were prior to last year and we can forget he hit .154 on breaking pitches, when he usually hits about 70 points higher. He still had a top 10% exit velocity and batted ball profile that looked like every other season. If last year were 162 games, I would’ve told everyone to buy Olson 60 games in, ad nauseam without a caveat emptor because he’s bona fide.
