Jorge Alfaro Stats

Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro exited Saturday's game against the Atlanta Braves in the ninth inning after aggravating something on the base paths. It's unclear what exactly occurred, but it likely has to do with his left leg or knee. Alfaro is hardly fantasy relevant at this point, as he's hitting .240 with just four home runs, eight stolen bases, and a .281 OBP over 90 games. Expect Alex Jackson to receive the majority of reps behind the plate if Alfaro is forced to miss time, but he's only slashing .131/.231/.234 in 121 games and should be ignored in all formats.

Miami Marlins catcher/outfielder Jorge Alfaro had another good game on Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a single, a double, a run scored, three RBI, and a stolen base. The three runs driven in gave him 29 on the year and the stolen base was his eighth. Alfaro is on a nice hot streak lately after being cold all season, and the former starting catcher has been getting plenty of starts as a left fielder. He should have outfield eligibility in most fantasy formats at this point, and could end up with first base eligibility before long as well. He's definitely a streaky hitter whose cold streaks last much longer than his hot streaks, but his current hot streak mixed with his newfound positional eligibility could make him worth considering in some deeper formats.

Miami Marlins catcher/outfielder Jorge Alfaro was removed from Sunday's game in the middle of his plate appearance in the third inning due to "shortness of breath," according to Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald. Alfaro was 0-for-1 with a strikeout prior to his exit, as he's now slashing .230/.276/.333 on the year with three home runs, five steals, 15 RBI and 13 runs scored over 65 games. Managers should consider him day-to-day for now, and check for updates on his condition after the game.
