2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wong enjoyed a breakout in 2024, posting a career-best .280/.333/.425 line with 13 home runs, 52 RBI, eight steals while improving with runners in scoring position. Congratulations to all the fantasy managers who had Wong on their rosters, but they should prepare for a correction in 2025. Much of the catcher's improvement was fueled by a BABIP that hovered in the high 300s for the first half of the season. A correction began in the second half, when his .696 OPS was more in line with his career mark entering the season. The 28-year-old backstop far exceeded his expected line, but there was growth as a hitter; Wong chased fewer balls and made more contact in the zone. He's a good athlete and saw time at second (four starts) and first base (10 starts). Wong could be the long-term No. 1 after Boston traded highly regarded prospect Kyle Teel in the deal to acquire starter Garrett Crochet. Read Past Outlooks
Idle Saturday
Wong isn't in the Red Sox's lineup for Saturday's game versus the Rays.
ANALYSIS
Wong went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts during Friday's series opener and will now sit down for the penultimate game of Boston's season. His absence will put Danny Jansen behind the plate to catch for right-hander Kutter Crawford.

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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Grip on starting role slipping
Wong has a .602 OPS and 31.3 percent strikeout rate through 17 games in August, and he's on the bench Friday against the Diamondbacks for the third time in the Red Sox's past four contests.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old started the month strong with a five-game hit streak including a four-hit performance, but he's been in a 7-for-42 slump over the past couple weeks. Wong was one of the most productive catchers in baseball during the first half as he clubbed eight homers with an .809 OPS in 71 games, but he's hitting .236 with just 10 extra-base hits in 28 contests since the All-Star break. Danny Jansen has carved out a larger chunk of playing time as a result, and the two catchers could operate in a timeshare down the stretch if Wong is unable to rediscover that early-season form.
