Atlanta Braves outfielder Adam Duvall went 3-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's victory versus the division rival Philadelphia Phillies. Despite his strong performance, the veteran was pinch-hit for with Jarred Kelenic late in the contest. Duvall, who has always been know for ability to go yard is struggling this season with a .186 batting average to go along with 11 homers and 30 RBI. He has just nine hits over his last 45 at-bats and has mostly been a bench bat for Atlanta. Regardless of his big performance on Thursday, Duvall hasn't done nearly enough to warrant any attention amongst managers. He can safely remain on the waiver wire.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Adam Duvall came up big in Tuesday's victory versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. The veteran slugger went 2-for-3 on the evening with a walk and three-run home run. The homer was crushed 441 feet off Zac Gallen to give the Braves a 5-0 lead at the time. Duvall has gotten plenty of playing time for the Braves and has homered twice in the last three games for Atlanta. The slugger has homered eight times this season, but is only hitting .191 on the season, making him a weak option in the deepest of leagues. Outside of daily lineups and managers hoping to capitalize on a power surge, Duvall can safely remain on the waiver wire.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Adam Duvall launched a two-run blast on Monday, his second in as many days. Through 34 games this season, the 35-year-old has posted a .209/.303/.407 line with five long balls and a 10:22 BB:K ratio. Duvall has not been able to find consistent playing time this season, but that will change due to the recent season-ending injury to Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee). He is now expected to slot in as the everyday right fielder in Atlanta, with J.P. Martinez serving as his backup. While Duval does have strong hitting metrics, such as an excellent 13.8% barrel rate and .499 xSLG, he holds a 22.2% K Rate, which does hurt his value in points leagues. Due to the increase in playing time and power upside, he is worth adding in deeper leagues.
In the first game for the Atlanta Braves on Memorial Day on Monday since learning that All-Star outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) will miss the rest of the season due to a full ACL tear, outfielder Adam Duvall is covering for him in right field and will bat sixth against the visiting Washington Nationals and rookie left-hander Mitchell Parker. Duvall hit his fourth home run of the season on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates and is now set to see a big playing time increase with Acuna out of the picture entirely for the rest of 2024. The former 11th-round pick by the San Francisco Giants in 2010 out of Louisville isn't going to provide much in terms of a useful batting average, but he still has notable pop in his bat and is worth a pickup in deeper mixed leagues now that he should see more of a regular role moving forward. Duvall is currently slashing .207/.305/.378 with four homer and 11 RBI in 33 games.
Free-agent outfielder Adam Duvall has signed a one-year, $3 million deal to return to the Atlanta Braves. This marks the veteran's third career stint with the Braves after spending parts of four seasons with them from 2018-2021 before returning for 86 games in the 2022 season after being traded to the Marlins in 2021. Most recently, the 35-year-old spent the 2023 season with the Red Sox, hitting .247 with 21 home runs, four stolen bases, and an .834 OPS. His season was slowed by a broken wrist suffered in April as he would appear in just 92 games in the 2023 season. The plan is for Duvall and offseason trade acquisition Jarred Kelenic to platoon in left field for the Braves in the 2024 campaign. He should provide quality power as he has throughout his career but his playing time will be limited, putting a hard cap on his fantasy value.
