2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gimenez broke out in 2022 with a 142 wRC+ to earn a $106.5 million extension with Cleveland, though he was unable to replicate those results last season. The 25-year-old still provided strong counting stats with 15 homers, 30 steals, 76 runs and 62 RBI, but his OPS dipped over 120 points to .713 despite a rise in offense across the league. His BABIP dropped significantly to .289 that can likely be attributed to a reduced hard-hit rate, which cratered from 37.6 percent in 2022 to 27.0 percent. The second baseman remains an elite defender and had 23 DRS and 18 OAA, both of which rank second in MLB and make him a mainstay in the lineup through his slumps. Gimenez's speed and decent power production provide a strong fantasy floor with plenty of upside for a potential rebound in 2024. Read Past Outlooks

How does Andres Gimenez compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Power dissipating
Gimenez' hard-hit percentage has dropped from 37.8 percent last season to 22.9 percent this season.
ANALYSIS
Gimenez mashing 17 home runs last season appears to be an absolute mirage. His average exit velocity of 84.4mph is the second-worst mark across MLB. Hard hit percentage is the frequency of batted balls being hit 95.0 mph or more, and Gimenez's power is on a serious downswing.

After Gimenez's showing in 2022, it seems safe to say the Guardians indeed found their long-term shortstop in the Francisco Lindor trade. Gimenez was 40% better than league average by wRC+ in 2022, racking up 17 homers and 20 steals on 23 attempts. Factoring in his exceptional defense, Gimenez ranked as a top-15 position player in all of baseball by fWAR. There are reasons to think he was playing over his head offensively last season, including a .353 BABIP, .257 xBA and 14.0% HR/FB. Expect some regression with the rate stats, but Gimenez should still be highly sought after in drafts thanks to his well-rounded skill set and everyday role. With his steals in particular, someone may jump the 24-year-old above ADP on draft day.
