Guillermo Heredia Stats

The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to an undisclosed major league deal with outfielder Guillermo Heredia on Thursday, according to sources. He was non-tendered by the Rays last month and is known as a strong defender and good clubhouse presence. That's not going to do much for fantasy owners, however. Heredia, 29 later this month, hit just .225/.306/.363 with five home runs and 20 RBI in 204 at-bats for Tampa before they let him go in 2019. He has a career slash line of .240/.317/.342 with 17 long balls, 75 RBI and six steals in four seasons with the Mariners and Rays. He might see decent playing time in Pittsburgh as a platoon guy, but you can ignore him in mixed leagues for 2020.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Guillermo Heredia (hand) left the game early on Friday with a left hand contusion after being hit by a pitch. However, his X-rays came back negative and he's day-to-day. Heredia was hitless in three plate appearances before leaving. He's hitting only .250/.351/.381 with two homers and eight RBI in limited chances (99 plate appearances). He usually only gets a start when Kevin Kiermaier is facing a lefty or getting a day of rest. Heredia has very little fantasy value, but it looks like he dodged a serious injury.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Guillermo Heredia is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Avisail Garcia (hamstring) is out of the lineup, so that opens up a spot for Heredia. Ji-Man Choi will bat cleanup and cover the designated hitter role for Garcia on Saturday. Heredia will bat ninth and play right field versus righty Kyle Gibson. Heredia doesn't have much fantasy value besides his speed.
