Austin Hays Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)
Austin Hays 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 - combining Steamer rates and Razzball projected PA/Game and R/RBI - 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.| PA | AB | R | HR | RBI | SB | AVG | OBP | SLG | OPS | BABIP | K% | BB% | $ | |

Austin Hays Fantasy Outlook For 2024
Grey Albright Player Summary Signed with the Reds. The Reds do one thing great and that's prospblock. So, Steer moves to 1st base and CES to the bench? Okay, but why? What purpose does Hays serve? That's different than your butler, Hays, who is serving you tuna salad that has accidental dolphin in it. That's, 'What porpoise does Hays serve?' I hate this move for fantasy, but, alas, no one asked me! By the way, did you hear the new album by Accidental Dolphin? Fintastic!

| Grey Albright Player Summary |
|---|
| Signed with the Reds. The Reds do one thing great and that's prospblock. So, Steer moves to 1st base and CES to the bench? Okay, but why? What purpose does Hays serve? That's different than your butler, Hays, who is serving you tuna salad that has accidental dolphin in it. That's, 'What porpoise does Hays serve?' I hate this move for fantasy, but, alas, no one asked me! By the way, did you hear the new album by Accidental Dolphin? Fintastic! |
