Matt McLain Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)
Matt McLain 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% | $ | |

Matt McLain Fantasy Outlook For 2024
Grey Albright Player Summary Now that he’s done chasing his dreams of being on The Great Food Truck Race with Tyler Florence and getting back to business on the field, we are once again going full hog into McLain–[intern whispers into ear]–Really? That’s what full hog means? Hmm…Anyway, last year I trusted McLain more than Elly, until he suffered setback after setback. First, he had a stress reaction of his rib, then that somehow became shoulder surgery. He hit for power in the AFL, and seems back to normal. Can’t say I’m hundred percent saying McLain is safe, but I like the price (if it’s around here) and want the upside gamble that he continues off his 16/14/.290 rookie year.

| Now that he’s done chasing his dreams of being on The Great Food Truck Race with Tyler Florence and getting back to business on the field, we are once again going full hog into McLain–[intern whispers into ear]–Really? That’s what full hog means? Hmm…Anyway, last year I trusted McLain more than Elly, until he suffered setback after setback. First, he had a stress reaction of his rib, then that somehow became shoulder surgery. He hit for power in the AFL, and seems back to normal. Can’t say I’m hundred percent saying McLain is safe, but I like the price (if it’s around here) and want the upside gamble that he continues off his 16/14/.290 rookie year. |
