2024 Fantasy Outlook
Davis finished strong with the Giants down the stretch of the 2022 campaign after coming over in a trade with the Mets and he carried that over into 2023, slashing .282/.362/.456 with 10 home runs and 44 RBI over 76 games through the end of June. The 30-year-old cooled off the rest of the way, though, hitting just .211/.284/.364 before ending the season with a shoulder strain. Davis still hits the ball hard (91.1 mph average exit velocity) and he did a better job of making contact in 2023 in cutting his strikeout rate to a more respectable 27.8 percent. His defense was actually much improved last season, although Davis' track record suggests he'll have to hit if he wants to play. He netted a career-high 546 plate appearances in 2023 but is no safe bet to reach that number in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Opens Athletics tenure hot
Davis is 3-for-5 with a double over his first two Cactus League games with the Athletics on Sunday and Monday.
ANALYSIS
The new veteran addition has wasted no time making his mark with his pair of productive performances. Davis projects to hold down the primary role at third base once the regular season begins, and he'll have several more opportunities in spring play to continue tuning up for that assignment.

Stat Review
How does J.D. Davis 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.

2016
Davis struggled to find much of a role during the first half of 2022 with the Mets, but he thrived after being shipped to the Giants. He had a .683 OPS while with New York but produced a .263/.361/.496 slash line with eight home runs in just 158 plate appearances for San Francisco. That production certainly didn't come out of nowhere and lines up well with the 130 wRC+ he posted from 2019 to 2021. The departure of Evan Longoria leaves the Giants without a clear starter at third base, and Davis could step into that spot depending on the club's additions in free agency. He'll need to beat out David Villar, who hit well in his first taste of the big leagues last season. Regardless, Davis should be able to secure regular at-bats between designated hitter, the corner infield and corner outfield.
