Andrew McCutchen News
The Pittsburgh Pirates signed free-agent outfielder Andrew McCutchen to a one-year deal worth $5 million on Friday, according to a source. McCutchen spent the nine years of his big-league career in Pittsburgh and was an All-Star with them for five straight seasons from 2011-15. He won the National League MVP in 2013. The 36-year-old is far from his prime in his return to Pittsburgh, but he'll give the rebuilding Pirates some veteran leadership. McCutchen posted a career-low .700 OPS with the Milwaukee Brewers last season and shouldn't be expected to improve much toward the back end of his career. But for fantasy purposes, he'll be relevant in deep mixed leagues if he's playing every day.
The New York Mets are considering free-agent outfielder Andrew McCutchen as their fourth outfielder, according to sources. However, it's unclear if McCutchen is interested in a role as a bench outfielder behind Starling Marte, Mark Canha and Brandon Nimmo. The Mets also have right-handed-hitting Darin Ruf on the bench as a potential right-handed designated hitter. The 36-year-old McCutchen showed a sharp dip in power last year with the Milwaukee Brewers, finishing with a career-low .700 OPS to go along with a .237/.316/.384 slash line, 17 home runs, 69 RBI, 66 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 580 plate appearances and 134 games for the Brew Crew. Other potential outfield options for the Mets on the free-agent market include Adam Duvall, David Peralta and Jurickson Profar.
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Andrew McCutchen had the biggest swing in an 8-4 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals Tuesday, hitting a two-run home run off starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery in the fifth inning. McCutchen went 2-for-5 in the game with the homer, a double, and three RBI. He now has 17 homers for the season, including three in his last six games. While he's no longer the slugger he once ways, the 35-year-old has still found a way to contribute for fantasy managers this year with 63 runs scored, 65 RBI, and eight stolen bases.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Andrew McCutchen continues to be Mr. Consistent, even as he enters his mid-30s. An ACL injury limited him to 59 games in 2019, the fewest games played in his career and also the first time in 10 years that he failed to play at least 146 games in a season. Last year, McCutchen bounced back to his healthy, reliable self by playing in 57 games and hitting 10 homers -- equating to 27 in a full season -- with four steals chipped in. McCutchen's batting average last year (.253) was near identical to his previous two years -- .255 in 2018 and .256 in 2019 -- establishing a solid base to project from. The days of double-digit stolen bases are likely gone, but his four steals in the shortened 2020 season does give some reason to hope that he could approach double-digit thefts if he stays healthy all year. All but one of McCutchen's starts last year came as the Phillies leadoff hitter, and even though last year's walk rate (9.1%) was McCutchen's lowest in the majors, he still put up a solid .324 OBP. He'll offer up useful run-scoring potential if he's the leadoff hitter again in 2021. McCutchen benefited from the universal designated hitter in 2020 (16 games as DH), so he may not be an everyday player as a 34-year-old if MLB doesn't bring the universal DH back. Even still, McCutchen's consistent production offers value at his current ADP of 202 as the 54th outfielder taken in drafts, on average.
