2024 Fantasy Outlook
Marte capped a productive season with an even more impressive postseason run. He posted a career-high 650 regular-season plate appearances while recording a 127 wRC+, the third highest of his career. Contact continued to be Marte's calling card, though he did log the second highest walk rate of his career. His power rebounded after a down season, but Marte's xSLG suggests he was a bit fortunate in that department. Marte swiped eight bags on 10 attempts, but he was one of the few players not to take better advantage of the new rules. For the second straight season, He lowered his strikeout rate while walking at a higher clip, helping maintain one of the top two spots in the Diamondbacks lineup, resulting in the second most runs and RBI of his career, both bettered only by his production in 2019 when Marte took advantage of the happy fun ball. Marte played almost exclusively at second base, losing outfield eligibility. Marte will have a hard time matching last season's power, but he offers a bankable floor with batting average stabilization. Read Past Outlooks
Back at second base
Marte started at second base and went 3-for-4 with a double, a home run, four RBI and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 14-4 win over Texas.
ANALYSIS
This was Marte's first game in the field since returning from an ankle injury last week. He served as the designated hitter his first three games back and was hitless over 11 at-bats before breaking out Wednesday. He led off the bottom of the first inning with a double and scored Arizona's first run, then his three-run homer in the fourth upped the Diamondbacks' lead to 8-2. Marte has 31 home runs -- one shy of the career high he set in 2019 -- and 85 RBI through 120 games.

Stat Review
How does Ketel Marte 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.

For the second straight season, Marte dealt with hamstring issues. In 2021, he incurred two IL stints, but played well. Last year, Marte played hurt and avoided the IL, but his production suffered. His 18.1% strikeout rate was the highest of his career and 41st percentile sprint speed dropped his infield hit rate to its lowest mark. Marte hit a career high number of fly balls, but with a lower exit velocity, fueling a career low .276 BABIP. Marte is entrenched as the Diamondbacks second baseman, though he played a lot of designated hitter last season to manage his hamstring woes. He's posted a 150 and 140 wRC+ in two of the previous four seasons, so he can be productive, but two consecutive summers dealing with lingering hamstring issues is concerning. A clever approach is buying the injury dip but taking advantage of so many players having second base eligibility and baking a hedge into your lineup.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Discussing possible extension
The Diamondbacks are discussing a possible contract extension for Marte, according to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Injuries derailed Marte's 2021 season, but he still had 14 home runs and two stolen bases with a .318 batting average. Marte is under contract for 2022 with team options in 2023 and 2024. Reports suggest Marte's extension could guarantee 2023-2024, plus three additional years for around $75 million. That could indicate the Diamondbacks intend to build around Marte for the future.
