STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

LaPorta is on track for a strong 2026 despite long-term back concerns.

LaPorta is on track to return to his baseline following back surgery for a disc herniation. While the injury carries long-term re-injury risk due to the removal of disc material, the data suggests no negative impact on his short-term production.
