2024 Fantasy Outlook
A string of knee issues derailed Wade in 2022 and prevented him from building on his breakout showing with the Giants from 2021, but he managed to stay mostly healthy in 2023 and returned to form as a reliable leadoff presence for San Francisco. He registered a .373 on-base percentage, which ranked 13th-best among all qualified major-league hitters, and he struck out only 95 times in 519 plate appearances while drawing 76 walks. Wade doesn't have a ton of raw power -- he finished in just the 32nd percentile last year in average exit velocity -- but the 30-year-old first baseman and corner outfielder should continue to be a fairly appealing option in OBP leagues and might be worthy of late-round or waiver-wire consideration in standard formats for his potential to rack up runs scored. It's worth nothing, however, that the offseason arrival of Jung Hoo Lee could seriously curtail Wade's tablesetting opportunities. Read Past Outlooks
Sitting against lefty
Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Wade went 6-for-15 with a double and two RBI while starting the previous five games, but he'll sit Sunday as southpaw Martin Perez takes the mound for San Diego. Mark Canha will step in at first base for San Francisco.

How does LaMonte Wade 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.

2017
Wade Jr, as well as many of his teammates, underperformed in 2022 as much as the club overperformed in 2021. He is firmly entreched as a strong side platoon outfielder with his inability to handle lefty pitchers, and that is perfectly fine with San Francisco and their fondness for platoon situatios. What was not fine was the 93 wRC+ Wade Jr had last year and how his lack of production impacted fantasy clubs who saw 2022 as a building block rather than an outlier. The young man is still very accepting of walks but defenses position him well as he had a 74-point split between his wOBA without the shift (.347) vs when shifted (.273) There may be some relief for him with the new rules on defensive alignments, but he has a rather hard cap of 475 plate appearances with his inability to hit lefties limiting his value to NL-Only formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be traded
The Giants could look to trade Wade ahead of the July 30 deadline, reports John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old has been San Francisco's best position player when healthy this year and has a .329/.462/.445 slash line in 57 games. Wade missed most of June with a hamstring strain but has gone 5-for-17 with two doubles, a homer and three walks since returning from the injured list. He'll be arbitration eligible for the final time in 2025, and the Giants could look to sell high on what's been the best production of Wade's MLB career.
