Stat Review
How does David Hensley 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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Hensley saw 94 plate appearances across 30 games for Houston in 2023 and frankly struggled as he slashed .119/.213/.167 before being sent back to Triple-A for good in August. Things didn't go much better for the 27-year-old in the minors posting a .220/.365/.356 line in 293 plate appearances with Sugar Land. After impressing in a short stint in 2022, it was a backwards step for Hensley who is likely now on the outside looking in at a roster spot in 2024. It's possible Hensley could make the team out of spring, but if he does he'll likely be limited to being a bench bat in a utility role as he's capable of playing multiple infield roles as well as corner outfield.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to rejoin big-league club?
Hensley could be in the mix to be recalled by the Astros after Jose Altuve exited Tuesday's game against the Brewers with an unspecified injury, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Hensley was demoted last week when Altuve made his return from a fractured thumb, and a quick return to the majors appears possible. The 27-year-old Hensley struggled mightily prior to being sent down with a .403 OPS and 37.2 percent strikeout rate in 86 plate appearances, so even if called up, he's unlikely to see significant playing time.
