Past Fantasy Outlooks
2015
2014
Almonte's performance across three callup periods with the Yankees in 2014 was nothing short of atrocious, as he recorded just one extra-base hit and failed to draw a single walk while striking out 14 times (38.9% K%) in 36 plate appearances. He had an OPS+ of 1. The Yankees designated the 25-year-old for assignment in September, but Almonte was still able to land a major league deal from Atlanta in the offseason, likely thanks to his respectable track record in the upper levels of the minors (.275/.333/.431 in two seasons at Triple-A). However, just because he signed a big-league deal doesn't mean Almonte is a lock to break camp as the club's fourth outfielder. Even if he were to win and job and playing time were to open up, Almonte would have to hit for a prolonged stretch to land on the NL-only radar.
