2024 Fantasy Outlook
Haggerty was a key cog for the Seattle bench in 2022 while posting a .738 OPS and playing all over the field, but he struggled in his limited action to begin the 2023 campaign with a .190/.292/.238 slash before being demoted to Tacoma. He was much more effective after a promotion in August, however, as he registered an .852 OPS while earning regular playing time in September. The 29-year-old doesn't possess much power and he has never hit above .256 in a season, but he does show a solid approach at the plate and he's stolen 23 bags over the last two seasons despite playing in just 135 games in that timeframe. Haggerty will likely be a bench option for Seattle to open 2024, and he isn't likely to see enough playing time to be considered for a roster spot in fantasy leagues. Read Past Outlooks

Achilles
May 27, 2024
The Mariners recalled Haggerty (Achilles) from Triple-A Tacoma and placed him on the 60-day injured list Monday.
ANALYSIS
Haggerty tore his right Achilles on May 18 in just his second minor-league game since being optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on May 15. He underwent surgery a week after suffering the injury and is expected to need 12 months to make a full recovery from the injury. Prior to suffering the season-ending injury, Haggerty slashed .310/.388/.338 with seven stolen bases over 81 plate appearances for Tacoma.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
Haggerty began the season with Triple-A Tacoma, but strong play earned him a spot back on the 40-man roster and a few first half big league stints. Haggerty was called up for good in late June, playing through some nagging injuries including forehead, shoulder, finger and groin issues. Working mostly in a utility capacity, but also starting from some stretches, Haggerty posted a career-best .738 OPS. His biggest fantasy contribution was 13 steals in 14 attempts. Haggerty's 26.4% strikeout rate is too high for a player with a below average exit velocity and Hard Hit rate. Haggerty's defensive flexibility and speed should keep him on the Mariners as a reserve, but he'd be exposed with regular playing.
A 24th-round pick by Cleveland in 2015, Haggerty was shipped to the Mets in January of 2019 and finally got his first call-up that September. However, he did not get much of a look -- Haggerty appeared in 11 games in 2019 but only logged four PA -- and he was eventually designated for assignment, landing with the Mariners via a waiver claim. Haggerty began 2020 at the alternate site and had to wait until Aug. 16 for a promotion. Haggerty showed off his speed with two steals in his first game in a Mariners uniform, but his performance was predictably trending south when he was placed on the injured list Sept. 7 with a left forearm strain, ending his season. For now, Haggerty remains on the 40-man roster. At close to 27, he looks likely to max out as a utility player.
