Eddys Leonard Fantasy Stats

The San Francisco Giants have promoted Dominican infield prospect Eddys Leonard to the major-league roster on Tuesday, sources told Francys Romero. The 25-year-old originally signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2017 and spent almost 10 years working his way through the minor leagues. He earned his first MLB call-up after hitting a combined .272/.361/.509 with an .870 OPS, 16 home runs, 51 RBI, 44 runs scored, and eight stolen bases in 77 games across 321 plate appearances this year with Triple-A Sacramento and Triple-A Nashville. The rebuilding Gigantes will give Leonard a big-league roster spot after trading away some pieces at Monday's Aug. 3 deadline. It's unclear how much he will play in San Francisco, but his versatility- he has experience everywhere on defense except catcher- will improve his odds of making an impact down the stretch as the Giants play out the string. Leonard's power stroke from the right side makes him worth looking into in NL-only fantasy leagues.

The Detroit Tigers have assigned shortstop Eddys Leonard to minor-league camp. Leonard was competing for a depth role on the major-league roster during camp but instead, the team will opt for him to continue his development in the minor leagues. Last season, the 24-year-old received his first extended look at Triple-A and posted a .263/.326/.455 slash line with 15 doubles and 10 home runs. He swiped seven bags but struck out 74 times and drew just 17 walks. This was a slight drop in production compared to the .302/.374/.530 line he held in the 2023 season during his first look at the Triple-A level. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression with Triple-A Toledo as he should push for an early-season MLB debut. As a result, Wenceel Perez, Trey Sweeney, Zach McKinstry, and Jahmai Jones will continue to compete for a depth role in the Detroit infield.
