2024 Fantasy Outlook
Pederson accepted the $19 million qualifying offer to remain in San Francisco for 2023, and he delivered an underwhelming performance with 15 homers and a .245/.348/.416 slash line, which was good for a 111 wRC+. He saw most of his playing time at designated hitter but retained outfield eligibility with 37 appearances, and he's unlikely to play the field much more than that going forward with minus-20 DRS across the last two years. Pederson improved his walk rate to 13.7 percent but posted a career-low .181 ISO despite a career-best 52.2 percent hard-hit rate, which resulted in a .263 xBA and .483 xSLG. A rebound in 2024 could be in store given those expected figures, especially if his new team has a more favorable home than pitcher-friendly Oracle Park. A .606 OPS in 52 plate appearances against lefties likely means the lefty-hitting Pederson is destined for a platoon role once again, regardless of where he signs. Read Past Outlooks
Sitting against lefty
Pederson isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies.
ANALYSIS
Kyle Freeland will start Thursday's game on the mound for Colorado, sending the lefty-hitting Pederson into the dugout. Blaze Alexander will serve as the D-backs' designated hitter instead, making his MLB debut while Pederson sits.

Stat Review
How does Joc Pederson 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
Close to deal with Diamondbacks
The Diamondbacks are "very close" to agreeing to a contract with Pederson, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
The terms of the deal are not yet known. Pederson hit a disappointing 15 home runs over 121 contests with the Giants last season but boasts a career .834 OPS against right-handed pitching. He would figure to see most of his playing time in the designated hitter spot versus righties.

Pederson joined the Giants on a one-year, $6 million deal in March and delivered an .874 OPS, 23 home runs and 70 RBI in 134 contests. The 144 wRC+ and .274 average are the best figures of his big-league career, and he also hit well against left-handed pitching with a .245/.333/.408 slash line, though that covers only 57 plate appearances. Pederson will likely reprise that exact same strong-side platoon role after accepting the Giants' qualifying offer. He also took a major step back defensively, which could result in him seeing more time at designated hitter, especially since the club added Mitch Haniger and Michael Conforto.
