Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Foscue has been an impressive contact hitter in the minors, but he is blocked in Texas and his lack of defensive utility lessens his appeal to other teams in trade talks. No longer a viable defensive option at second base (where he is eligible in fantasy) or even third base, Foscue may lack the power potential to get an extended look at first base or designated hitter. He had excellent plate discipline marks (15.1 BB%, 12.4 K%) and mediocre impact metrics (25.8 Hard%, 103.1-mph 90th percentile EV) while being old (24) for a legitimate Triple-A prospect. If Foscue projected to be a quality defender, his offensive output would be perfectly fine, but he will probably be limited to short-side platoon at-bats or indefinite work at Triple-A until he gets traded to a second-division team.

Sent to Triple-A
Foscue was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday, Michael Bier of Foul Terrirory reports.
ANALYSIS
Foscue went 12-for-46 with one homer, six RBI and six runs scored over 20 spring training appearances, but his performance wasn't enough to secure a roster spot. He'll likely be in the mix for a promotion later on this season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
After finishing his injury-shortened 2021 season at Double-A Frisco, Foscue returned there for the duration of the 2022 campaign. Although the former first-round pick's power production dipped, he greatly improved his strikeout rate from 27 percent to 14.3 percent. Foscue also got better as the season moved along, posting a .300/.363/.486 line with 11 of his 15 homers over the final three months. Foscue's bat will need to carry him because his defense is poor, and second base (Marcus Semien) and likely third base (Josh Jung) are already spoken for with the big club, anyway. The 24-year-old figures to spend most, if not all, of 2023 at Triple-A Round Rock.
