Anthony Santander News
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander will play for Venezuela in the 2023 World Baseball Classic, per Baltimore Sun's Andy Kostka. The 28-year-old should add some pop to their lineup as he did for the O's in 2022, slashing .240/.318/.455 with 33 home runs and 89 RBI. Santander logged career-highs in both HR and RBI hitting in a more competitive lineup, and he should be a fantasy asset once again in 2023. He may even receive a slight fantasy boost if the O's make any off-season moves to bolster their existing lineup.
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander followed up his two-homer performance Monday night with another two-homer performance Tuesday night. Santander hit his 32nd and 33rd round-trippers in the third and fourth innings of the 13-9 loss to the Boston Red Sox. He also doubled, finishing with three RBI and three runs scored in his five at-bats. Santander has slugged .931 over his last seven games, with six homers in that span. He's been among the most underrated hitters in the league this season, and fantasy managers who invested in him have been handsomely rewarded.
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander got in on the offensive action in Monday's 14-8 win over the Red Sox. Santander went 2-for-6 with a solo home run, a two-run HR, and a strikeout. The 27-year-old seems to have found a winning combination of hard-hit rate and launch angle this season, as he has slashed .247/.322/.459 with 31 HR and 85 RBI. Hitting in the middle of a solid young lineup, Santander has been a fantasy asset this season and will likely be one next season as well.

Anthony Santander had his best season with the Orioles in 2022, hitting .240/.318/.455 with 33 homers, 89 RBI, 78 runs and no stolen bases (152 games). The home runs, RBI, runs and games played were all career highs and his expected stats suggest he could have been even better. Santander's expected home run total was 37.2 while he had a .257 xBA and .471 xSLG (according to Statcast). Santander will also get a full year of hitting in the same lineup as Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman while Trey Mancini's departure leaves one less option to take away at-bats. The impact of Oriole Park's left field wall changes last year have been well documented but as a switch hitter, Santander hits from the left side more and is less impacted by the left field alterations. Given eight of his 15 home runs at home came against left-handed pitching, Santander was one of the few hitters to avoid excessive harm to his power numbers at Oriole Park. Santander offers no speed but only five outfielders hit more homers than he did in 2022 and with an ADP of ~134 (33rd outfielder), Santander is the perfect power supplement in the middle rounds if you focused on drafting speed early.
