Adalberto Mondesi News
The Miami Marlins are still searching for a shortstop, and free-agent infielder Adalberto Mondesi is one consideration. Mondesi had surgery to fix his ACL in April of 2022 and was unable to get back onto the field while with the Boston Red Sox in 2023. The 28-year-old switch-hitter has plenty of speed when healthy, but he's a huge injury question mark after sitting out all of last season. He has stolen 133 bases in seven major-league seasons, all with the Kansas City Royals, but he's played in over 100 games just once in his career and has hit .233/.275/.392 with 12 home runs, 42 RBI, 44 stolen bases and 55 runs scored since the shortened 2020 campaign. At best, Mondesi will be a late-round fantasy flier for his speed on the basepaths if he were to land in Miami as their primary shortstop. As of right now, Jon Berti is penciled in at the 6 for the Fish.
The Boston Red Sox have shut down shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (knee) from baseball activities for the time being. The 28-year-old attempted to ramp things up and faced live pitching recently, but he's unfortunately back in shutdown mode. Mondesi tore his ACL in April of 2022 and just can't return his body to full health. The dynamic infielder has been limited to 50 games since 2021 due to several ailments, and simply can't get his career going as one of baseball's most oft-injured players. Fantasy managers holding onto the sliver of hope that Mondesi would return this season can probably pull the plug at this point with only a quarter of action left in the regular season.
Boston Red Sox shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (knee) has been ramping up baseball activities of late. Mondesi posted a video of himself taking grounders, running, and hitting on Monday ahead of his team's game against the Kansas City Royals. The speedy infielder has not played in a game yet this season after injuring his knee and undergoing ACL surgery. It remains to be seen whether Mondesi makes it back to the field for the 2023 season or not.

After appearing in just 15 games and hitting .140 with the Royals in 2022, Adalberto Mondesi (knee) suffered another long-term injury, tearing his ACL and missing the remainder of the season. Not only did he miss a considerable chunk of last season, but he's also going to miss most of, if not all, of the 2023 preseason after appearing in just 109 games over the last three campaigns. While he played 59 of the 60 games in the shortened 2020 season, that's not much baseball over the previous three years as he moves to the Boston Red Sox for the 2023 season. The 27-year-old could be ready for Opening Day, but Mondesi struggled at the plate in each of the last four seasons, hitting .248 with 21 home runs, a slight 4.6% BB%, and an elevated 30.6% K% rate in that time. Of course, he ranks fifth in all baseball with 87 stolen bases in that 211-game stretch. However, his lack of on-base skills and lengthy injury history is also capping that part of his game. Add it up, Mondesi is our 26th-ranked shortstop with an ADP in the 250 range. With Steamer projecting Mondesi for just 12 home runs and 23 steals, Mondesi can certainly be left alone before that ADP threshold. Given the power/speed potential when healthy, keeping an eye on his playing time with Trevor Story out for most, if not all, of the 2023 season is prudent.
