2024 Fantasy Outlook
Mendick has seen major-league action in each of the past five years, though he's played more than 35 games in a season just once. He's largely been ineffective offensively with a .652 OPS in 515 big-league plate appearances but provides plenty of versatility defensively. Mendick rejoined the White Sox on a minor-league deal for 2024 and will likely be limited to a utility role if he receives a look in the majors. Read Past Outlooks
RANKSFrom Preseason
First hit since return
Mendick went 1-for-3 with a double Sunday against the Yankees.
ANALYSIS
Mendick was activated from the injured list Friday and has since started all three games at third base while hitting in the bottom third of the order. He collected his first hit since returning with a double in the seventh frame. With Bryan Ramos (quadriceps) sidelined, Mendick should have a clear path to playing time in the short term.

Stat Review
How does Danny Mendick 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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Regular role coming in 2022?
Mendick is an option to see more time at second base next season with Cesar Hernandez headed for free agency, though the team is expected to explore external candidates, Scott Merkin of MLB.com notes.
ANALYSIS
Hernandez joined the White Sox via an in-season trade and didn't produce, so the club decided to move on. Mendick could be next in line, but the 28-year-old has a career OPS of just .640 and has never been a true everyday player, so Chicago may look for a more proven option, which would push Mendick into a utility role

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2020
Mendick was amid his most productive season at the plate when he blew out his right knee last June. The White Sox elected to non-tender him as a result of the injury, but he was quickly scooped up by the Mets on a major-league deal. The hope is that Mendick will be ready to roll for Opening Day, although it's possible the team proceeds cautiously with him. Mendick is predominantly a middle infielder but can handle third base and the corner outfield spots, as well. His versatility could be useful for the Mets but it's not a skill set which figures to bear any fantasy fruit.
