On the heels of being a Platinum Glove Award winner during his first season as an outfielder, Fernando Tatis Jr. is set on re-establishing himself as an elite offensive player for the San Diego Padres this season. We’ll keep tabs on his progress in the power department with our 2024 Fernando Tatis Jr. Home Run Tracker.
This will work just like our trackers from last year. We’ll update this article every time ‘Nando goes deep during the regular season. The information listed below will include the opponent, date, distance, exit velocity, and a video of the dinger.
Despite getting a late start in 2023 because of a PED suspension, Tatis still slugged 25 homers. It was his third year of 20-plus homers as a big leaguer. He’ll look to get back to his 2021 form when he hit 42 taters. He was the first Padres player to slug 40-plus homers in a season since Adrian Gonzalez in 2009.
Be sure to check out our 2023 Tatis home run tracker. You can also see where that 2021 performance of his landed on the Padres’ single-season home run leaderboard.
