Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Singleton returned to the majors for the first time since 2015 in 2023, slashing .165/.267/.264 in 105 plate appearances with both Milwaukee and Houston, even securing a spot on the Astros ALDS roster. Though meek in the majors, Singleton impressed across 148 plate appearances in Triple-A Sugar Land where he hit .333/.446/.692 with 12 home runs. It's unlikely that the 32-year-old will become much of a fantasy asset in 2024, but should break camp as a backup first baseman to Jose Abreu and could earn at bats at DH if Yordan Alvarez plays as an outfielder.

Scratched with illness
Singleton was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels due to an illness, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Victor Caratini will step in at first base and bat fifth in place of Singleton, who will wind up hitting the bench for a third straight game after going 3-for-4 with two doubles in his last start Thursday versus the Athletics. The lefty-hitting Singleton should see the bulk of the starts at first base against right-handed pitching over the final two weeks of the season.

Stat Review
How does Jon Singleton 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.

2012
2011
Singleton had a down year at Triple-A Fresno, hitting .202, albeit with 20 home runs. He did walk 88 times for a more respectable .337 on base percentage, but he's not going to get the call hitting at the Mendoza Line in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League. Once a top prospect, Singleton struggled mightily in his major league debut with the Astros in 2014, hitting .168 with a 37 percent strikeout rate over 362 at-bats. He did even worse in 2015, and continued his woes at the plate into 2016, casting doubt on whether or not he'll ever make the cut as a major league hitter. The Astros are crowded at first base and designated hitter with A.J. Reed, Tyler White, Yulieski Gurriel and now Brian McCann in the mix for at-bats, making it difficult to imagine Singleton back in the majors even if he does rebound at the plate in 2017. Don't consider Singleton anything but a long shot in the deepest of dynasty formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to lose roster spot
The Astros are expected to promote Shay Whitcomb from Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, reports Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston, and Singleton could be in danger of being moved off the MLB roster.
ANALYSIS
Singleton has seen his playing time dwindle since Zach Dezenzo was called up in early August, and Whitcomb is now also entering the mix at first base. Singleton has been unable to take hold of the everyday job at the position following the release of Jose Abreu and has a .235/.319/.354 slash line and 27.6 percent strikeout rate in 92 games this season. It's possible the Astros would prefer Dezenzo to get regular reps at Triple-A rather than seeing inconsistent at-bats in the majors, in which case Singleton could stick around the big-league roster a bit longer.
