2024 Fantasy Outlook
A second-round pick by the Mariners in 2020 out of Texas A&M, DeLoach had a solid 2023 season with Triple-A Tacoma while hitting 23 homers with an .868 OPS, and the Mariners added him to the 40-man roster in November to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft. The 25-year-old was able to hit .286 over his 623 plate appearances in the Pacific Coast League, but he'll likely struggle to hit for average at the highest level due to the swing-and-miss in his profile, and he whiffed 173 times in 528 at-bats last summer. He does help compensate with his pop and a strong approach at the plate as seen in the aforementioned homers along with 83 walks, and he's fast enough to steal 10-plus bases if he receives regular playing time. DeLoach likely opens the 2024 season back in Tacoma, but he'd be worth monitoring if/when the Mariners gave him a chance to play before the campaign closes. Read Past Outlooks
Gets call from Triple-A
The White Sox recalled DeLoach from Triple-A Charlotte ahead of Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Mets. He entered the game as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth and grounded out in his lone at-bat.
ANALYSIS
DeLoach is back up with the White Sox for the third time this season after going 3-for-22 with a 3:9 BB:K between his previous two stints. As a left-handed batter, DeLoach won't be a candidate for a platoon role, and he likely won't be in the mix for regular at-bats against right-handed pitching either while all of Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert and Dominic Fletcher are healthy and available.

Stat Review
How does Zach DeLoach 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.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
DeLoach is a fascinating case. He didn't seem like a talent worthy of selection in the first five rounds through his first two seasons at Texas A&M, but few college hitters did more damage in the 2019 Cape Cod League last spring. Seattle bought in, selecting him with the No. 43 overall pick. The left-handed hitter reportedly made a swing change to incorporate more loft and proceeded to hit .353/.428/.541 with five home runs and a 19.1% strikeout rate in the Cape before hitting .421/.547/.789 with a 3:14 K:BB (3.9 K%) in 18 spring games against mostly mediocre competition. His speed is also ticking up, as he went 14-for-16 on stolen-base attempts over his last 55 games. DeLoach may have to move to left field, which would put more pressure on his bat. His hit tool received rave reviews at the alternate training site and during instructs, but it's not yet clear how much power he will get to in games.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance at platoon role?
Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com listed DeLoach as a potential option to fill the small side of a right-field platoon for the White Sox in 2024.
ANALYSIS
DeLoach, who was acquired from the Mariners on Saturday, has yet to make his MLB debut but posted a .286/.387/.481 slash line at the Triple-A level last year. The 25-year-old hit left-handers particularly well with a .905 OPS, which could make him an ideal platoon partner for the lefty-hitting Dominic Fletcher.
