2024 Fantasy Outlook
It was Reese McGuire starting the first two games of the season at catcher for the Red Sox, but Wong quickly wrestled the job away from him and wound up easily pacing the club with 105 starts behind the plate. Wong had an above-average barrel rate in the 56th percentile and a max exit velocity in the 88th percentile, so he's capable of making hard contact. The 27-year-old is also a terrific athlete for a catcher, moonlighting some at second base while also stealing eight bases to go with a sprint speed in the 76th percentile. Wong's plate discipline (33.3 percent strikeout rate, 5.5 percent walk rate) is dreadful, though, and it's been that way dating back to the minors. Double digits in home runs and stolen bases are possible if he gets regular playing time in 2024, but Wong's xBA of .208, not his actual .235 average, is probably closer to what we should expect.

Stat Review
How does Connor Wong compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Taking more aggressive approach
Wong is being more aggressive at the plate through 20 games this season, with his 55.8 percent swing rate representing an increase of over three percentage points from last season.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old was behind the plate Opening Day but started just four of Boston's first 11 games, though he's hit his way back into a near-everyday role. Wong has started six of the past seven contests and has a .991 OPS during that stretch and has a .343/.366/.582 slash line for the season. A downside is that Wong has just one walk through 71 plate appearances, though his strikeout rate is also down over 12 points to 21.1 percent.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
Wong received some semi-regular playing time down the stretch for the Red Sox and had a .175/.283/.325 slash line in 22 games during the final month of the season. He split playing time with Reese McGuire, who had significantly more offensive success with an .875 OPS during that same stretch. Wong's major-league numbers don't mean much given he has only 70 plate appearances to his name, and he continues to hit well at the Triple-A level with an .832 OPS and 15 home runs in 2022. The departure of Christian Vazquez leaves Boston without a clear No. 1 option behind the plate, but the team is looking to upgrade the position during the offseason. Wong should have a chance to secure a spot on the big-league roster for 2023, though he's unlikely to receive consistent starting opportunities outside of an injury.
