2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hummel was dealt to Seattle from Arizona in the deal for Kyle Lewis last winter, and he was able to break camp with the Mariners and even saw some time in the lineup to begin 2023. He went just 2-for-23 in his chances, however, and he didn't see another at-bat with the M's after April 18. The left-handed hitter was effective in Tacoma with an .835 OPS and 27 steals over 455 plate appearances, and he's slashed .288/.420/.492 in his 225 games at the Triple-A level. Hummel is a patient hitter who doesn't possess a ton of swing-and-miss, but he also doesn't have the power potential that you typically see in a viable corner-outfield option. He does have the ability to catch, and that versatility and approach gives him a chance to make the Seattle roster out of the Cactus League. It just won't likely make him worthy of a fantasy roster anytime soon, if ever. Read Past Outlooks
Outrighted to Triple-A
Hummel was outrighted to Triple-A Sugar Land by the Astros on Monday after clearing waivers.
ANALYSIS
Hummel is no longer on the 40-man roster after being designated for assignment last week, but he'll remain in the organization. The 29-year-old will operate in a utility role with Sugar Land.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Getting time at catcher
Hummel made his first two big-league starts at catcher over the weekend in Colorado.
ANALYSIS
Hummel spent much of his college and early minor-league career as a catcher but has rarely appeared behind the plate over the last three seasons. When backup catcher Jose Herrera was optioned to Triple-A on Tuesday, it seemed likely that Daulton Varsho would take over his role but it appears another versatile outfielder, Hummel, has taken on the backup catching duties. Hummel has a subpar .174/.278/.297 line in 53 games for Arizona and a healthy .310/.423/.527 line in 33 contests in Triple-A. The 27-year-old will likely split his time between catcher and the corner outfield spots for the Diamondbacks.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
After crushing Triple-A for two seasons, Hummel got his first chance in the majors in his age-27 season. His excellent plate discipline along with the chance to gain catcher eligibility made him an early-season free agent and waiver target. As is often the case when a hitter advanced for the minor league level excels, Hummer was unable to translate his success on the farm to the majors. A 32% strikeout rate in concert with weak contact yielded a .581 OPS. The Mariners acquired Hummel from Arizona in the offseason, so they must feel he can capture some of his minor league prowess. He walked at an 11.4% clip and swiped four bags in five tries. Plus, Hummel caught 18 games, so picking up a reserve who can catch helps in-game managing, not to mention he may have or gain catcher eligibility in some fantasy leagues. There is enough to track Hummel, but not sufficient reason to offer him a seat at the fantasy table.
