2024 Fantasy Outlook
It looked like Rodgers' 2023 season might end before it began after he needed surgery in March to repair a tear in his left shoulder capsule. He wound up making it back in late July, though, and after a very slow start (.202/.263/.266, zero homers in 29 games) closed strong in slashing .348/.392/.580 with four home runs over his last 17 games. Rodgers' splits (.855 OPS at home, .532 OPS on the road) were as drastic as ever, and he's never turned into the power hitter it looked like he might be when he was a top prospect. He's healthy now and is still just 27, but Rodgers just hasn't looked like a standout anywhere even with the Coors Field boost. If there's a silver lining, it's that his draft cost should reflect the lack of enthusiasm. Read Past Outlooks
Dealing with hamstring tightness
Rodgers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs due to right hamstring tightness, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The injury will cost Rodgers a second straight start, but the Rockies don't seem to believe he's at risk of landing on the 10-day injured list. In fact, Lyons relays that the second baseman could be back in the lineup as soon as Monday's game against the Diamondbacks. Over the final two weeks of the season, the Rockies will play nine of their 12 games at hitter-friendly Coors Field, making Rodgers a more appealing fantasy option than usual if he's able to shake off the hamstring injury.

Stat Review
How does Brendan Rodgers 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.

Rodgers has seemingly been on the scene forever, yet he is now entering his age 25 season. The journey here has been marred with mulitple injuries, and 2022 was his first "full" season in the big leagues but even it saw him play fewer than 140 games. His hitting profile is one much like other Colorado players: rakes at home (.317/.388/.511) while struggling mightily on the road (.239/.292/.354.) He does not have any one fantasy skill to target as you look to build your roster as he does not do anything particularly well. His ability to reach base is very much built on the volatility of his batting average which limits his run scoring while his next stolen base will be the first one of his career. For all the hype coming up in his prep days and his days in the minors, we are left wanting much more from him. Youth is still on his side, but your impatience is warranted.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unattractive trade candidate?
Rodgers is a possible trade chip for the Rockies this summer but may not bring back a significant return, according to Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post.
ANALYSIS
Rodgers was on a clear upward trajectory after he posted a .798 OPS in 102 games during 2021, which was his first extended look in the big leagues. The 27-year-old hasn't been nearly as productive over the past three years, and he has a .266/.307/.356 slash line through 51 games in 2024. Rodgers is making solid contact with a career-best 45.5 percent hard-hit rate, but a 4.7-degree launch angle has resulted in a 55.9 percent groundball rate.
