2024 Fantasy Outlook
Vientos earned a promotion to the big club in mid-May following a monster start to the season at Triple-A Syracuse. He struggled to replicate the success with the Mets, as he banged out nine home runs over 233 plate appearances but also posted a .620 OPS while striking out at a 30.5 percent clip. Vientos has fanned at a 27 percent rate during his time at Double- and Triple-A, so we probably can't count on much of an improvement with his strikeout rate in 2024. He did also draw walks at a 10.1 percent rate during those stops in the minors, so the 4.3 percent rate he had with the Mets could tick up. Ultimately, Vientos is likely to go as far as his power will take him, and he did collect a robust 51 percent hard-hit rate and 10.7 percent barrel rate. The 24-year-old could only have designated hitter eligibility initially in your fantasy league, and that spot might be his clearest path to playing time with the Mets. Read Past Outlooks
Homers, reaches base four times
Vientos went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks and an additional run scored in Monday's 8-7 win over Washington.
ANALYSIS

The 24-year-old continues to crush left-handed pitching, entering Monday's game with a .444/.483/.815 slash line against southpaws. Vientos has firmly established himself as the Mets' starting third baseman, batting .339 with five home runs and 11 runs scored through 66 plate appearances.

Getting ample at-bats
Vientos leads all spring training participants with 26 at-bats, culminating in a .308/.308/.615 slash line with two home runs through 10 games.
ANALYSIS
A top third base prospect for the Mets, Vientos is getting extended run at DH thus far in the Grapefruit League. The 23-year-old slashed .167/.268/.278 across 41 plate appearances in a brief MLB debut last season. He's amid a strong spring, but Vientos' nine strikeouts versus zero walks is something to monitor.

2023

2018
A solid season with Triple-A Syracuse earned Vientos his first major league callup in September. He posted a .885 OPS in 101 games on the farm but slipped to a .546 mark in 15 games with the big club. Power is Vientos best asset, though he'll have to overcome a strikeout rate just under 30% for it to manifest. When he makes contact, it's often in the air and usually hard hit. A third baseman by trade, Vientos has also dabbled at first base and left field. His clearest path to playing time could be as designated hitter, though there is an outside chance he can sneak in at the hot corner. Vientos is an intriguing speculative play as a late rounder in draft and hold formats. Note, in most leagues, he'll begin the season only eligible at utility since he served as designated hitter 11 times as opposed to just two games at third base.
