Kole Calhoun News
The Texas Rangers and free-agent outfielder Kole Calhoun have agreed to a one-year deal on Sunday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports. The financial details aren't known as of now. The 34-year-old veteran dealt with injuries for the majority of last season with the Arizona Diamondbacks and was never able to find his stroke, slashing .235/.297/.373 with five home runs in 51 games. However, he posted an .864 OPS in 2020 and has shown the ability to hit for power in his career, compiling 131 home runs from 2015-2020. Calhoun won't be drafted in most leagues but does have some value as a late-rounder in deep leagues if he's able to bounce back.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with a left hamstring strain, according to Zach Buchanan of The Athletic. Calhoun had exited Wednesday's game early due to injury after drawing a walk in his lone plate appearance. It's been an injury-plagued season for Calhoun, who has been limited to just 36 games where he's slashing .238/.293/.354 with three homers, one steal, 10 RBI and 11 runs scored. It's unclear just how long he'll be out, but between the injury and his current level of performance he can be safely dropped in all formats.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun left Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants in the top of the second inning with an injury. The ailment seems to be related to one of his legs, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports. Prior to leaving the game, he walked in his lone plate appearance. It's been a disappointing year for the 10-year veteran, slashing .238/.293/.354 for the struggling Diamondbacks. He had deep league relevance coming into this campaign but lost almost all of it with his poor numbers, which won't change soon if he has to miss time for the injury.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun epitomized the term "steady Eddie" for the majority of his career in Anaheim, producing solid, consistent results, but never taking his game to the next level. He was the perfect OF5 in a five-outfielder league. That changed in 2019, when Calhoun revamped his swing amidst a slump and wound up exploding for 33 home runs and a .236 ISO that year. He carried that success into 2020, as Calhoun popped 16 bombs with a .300 ISO and .362 wOBA in 228 PA last year. A disciple of the Statcast revolution, Calhoun posted a career-high 11.8% barrel rate and a 17-degree average launch angle in 2020, which were two key components to his success. A .211 BABIP and .264 xBA suggest that Calhoun could improve on his .226 BA from a year ago as well. He was dealing with some tightness and soreness in his right knee at the start of Spring Training, which turned out to be a medial meniscus tear. He underwent surgery in early March to repair his knee and should be out all of April. This has caused his ADP to plummet from 260 pre-injury to just outside the top 300. Given his age and reputation for bland stability Calhoun is often overlooked, but if he can marry his newfound power with a batting average around .250-.260 then he could prove to be a tremendous value. Due to the injury he's going un-drafted in most standard leagues so he's a sneaky stash if you have the spare IL slot.
