Luis González News
Free-agent outfielder Luis Gonzalez has inked a minor-league pact with the New York Yankees. The 28-year-old didn't appear in the big leagues in the 2023 season due to back surgery and most recently appeared in the majors for the 2022 San Francisco Giants, hitting .254 with four home runs, 10 stolen bases, and 36 RBI across 350 trips to the plate. Gonzalez has been fairly productive in his brief time in the big leagues, posting a career .253 average with four homers, 10 steals, and a .691 OPS in 107 games between the Giants and Chicago White Sox, production that grades out just 1% below the league average, as per his 99 wRC+. He will likely serve as outfield depth for a Yankees team addressing their outfield needs this offseason.
San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Gonzalez (back) is undergoing surgery on Tuesday to fix a herniated disc in his lower back. It's an estimated 16-week recovery timetable, so he'll miss at least half of the 2023 season. However, there's optimism that Gonzalez will finally put the issue behind him. The 27-year-old left-handed hitter was limited to 98 games with the Giants in his third year in the big leagues in 2022, and he hit .254/.323/.360 with a .683 OPS, four home runs, 36 RBI, 31 runs scored and 10 stolen bases in 350 plate appearances. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues can ignore Gonzalez for now.
San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Gonzalez (back) hopes to be ready by Opening Day. Gonzalez was diagnosed with a lower back strain, with a 4-6 week timeline. He expects to be available by Opening Day, assuming he recovers well. Gonzalez spent his first full season in left and right field but has yet to have a starting spot for 2023. He peaked in May when he slashed .368/.410/.500 through 28 games, but he never found his footing after that. Aside from a mediocre final two months of the season, his bat mostly derailed. The Giants hope to stabilize his bat and develop some power. Once Gonzales returns, he will likely serve as outfield depth, with the possibility of making the starting lineup.
