Jorge Alfaro Fantasy Stats

The Kansas City Royals have signed catcher Jorge Alfaro to a minor-league contract, according to Aram Leighton of Just Baseball Media. Alfaro spent the 2025 season with the Nationals. Through 14 games, Alfaro held a .256/.256/.308 line with just two extra-base hits and one stolen base. He spent the majority of the season in the minor leagues with the Nashville Sounds. The veteran backstop spent most of his MLB career with the Marlins. Through three seasons in Miami (2019 through 2021), Alfaro held a .252/.298/.386 line through 253 games with the Marlins. Fantasy managers should expect Alfaro to continue to remain in the minor leagues to open the 2026 season, as the Royals have longtime backstop Salvador Perez with budding star Carter Jensen sitting in the No. 2 role.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Jorge Alfaro was unable to make the big-league club and was reassigned to minor-league camp on Wednesday. Alfaro did a nice job during camp, but he didn't have much of a shot at making the MLB club to begin the season. The Brewers will ride with William Contreras and Eric Haase behind the plate to start the regular season. Alfaro sat out last season and only played 18 games between the Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox in 2023. The expectation is that Alfaro will head to Triple-A Nashville as depth in case an injury happens at some point during the season.

Free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro signed a minor-league deal with an invite to major-league spring training with the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday, according to sources. Alfaro signed a minor-league deal with the Chicago Cubs last year but was released during spring training. The 31-year-old veteran backstop didn't see action anywhere in the big leagues in 2024 but will head to spring training in 2025 as catching depth for the Brew Crew. The Colombian catcher last appeared in the majors in 2023 with the Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox and went 7-for-48 (.146) with a homer and four RBI in just 18 games played. If Alfaro doesn't get cut by Milwaukee this spring, he will likely open the year at Triple-A Nashville as minor-league depth. In parts of eight seasons in the majors with five different teams, Alfaro has a career .253/.302/.393 slash line with 48 homers and 198 RBI in 496 games played.

Free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro agreed with the Chicago Cubs on a minor-league deal on Wednesday, according to sources. The deal includes an invitation to spring training. Alfaro will join the Cubbies in 2024 after spending the 2023 campaign with the Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox. He only played in a total of 18 games (52 plate appearances) and went 7-for-48 (.146) with a home run and four RBI in the big leagues. The 30-year-old Colombian will represent minor-league catching depth in Chicago behind Yan Gomes and Miguel Amaya and will not be on the fantasy radar. Alfaro has a .253/.302/.393 career slash line with 48 home runs, 198 RBI and 18 stolen bases in eight major-league seasons with the Phillies, Marlins, Padres, Rockies and Red Sox.

The Miami Marlins signed free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro to a minor-league deal on Tuesday. He's expected to report to Triple-A Jacksonville this week. Alfaro has played in just 18 games at the big-league level with the Boston Red Sox and Colorado Rockies this year, going 7-for-48 (.146) with a home run, four doubles, four RBI and two runs scored. Most of his playing time has come at the Triple-A level. The 30-year-old Colombian backstop will now return to Miami after playing for the team from 2019-21. For now, Alfaro will represent catching depth at the minor-league level behind Nick Fortes and Jacob Stalling at the big-league level.

The Boston Red Sox signed free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro to an undisclosed major-league contract on Thursday, and he'll be active on Thursday night against the visiting Texas Rangers in Beantown. Alfaro joined the Colorado Rockies for 10 games after opting out of his minor-league deal with the Red Sox in June, but now he's back in Boston. The 30-year-old veteran backstop went 5-for-31 (.161) with a homer, four doubles and four RBI in his 10 contests with the Rockies. With Reese McGuire (oblique) currently injured, Alfaro will serve as Connor Wong's backup in his return to Boston. Alfaro isn't much of a fantasy option and won't see regular playing time. He's a career .245 hitter with 48 homers and 198 RBI in 1,690 plate appearances over eight seasons in the majors.

Colorado Rockies catcher Jorge Alfaro is absent from the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The right-handed slugger has served as the designated hitter in four of the last five games. This appears to be a routine rest day for the 30-year-old catcher. Elias Diaz will be behind the plate and bat cleanup, while Randal Grichuk will function as the designated hitter versus left-hander Patrick Sandoval.

Colorado Rockies catcher Jorge Alfaro had his contract selected ahead of Thursday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Brian Serven has been demoted to Triple-A in a corresponding transaction. Alfaro is operating as the designated hitter and batting sixth against rookie AJ Smith-Shawver in his Rockies debut. The 30-year-old was brought in by Colorado less than a week ago and is hitting .323/.366/.524 with seven homers and five stolen bases in the minor leagues this season. Alfaro is not yet worthy of fantasy consideration, but he presents enough speed potential at the catcher position to be worth watching in redraft leagues.

The Colorado Rockies and free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro agreed to a minor-league contract on Saturday. The 30-year-old has been out of the majors in 2023 after failing to stand out over his last two seasons. Alfaro is hitting a weak .245 with a .645 OPS across 551 at-bats since 2021. The speedy backstop bolsters Colorado's depth chart behind the dish alongside the emerging Elias Diaz. Alfaro is not close to fantasy relevance at this time, but his speed would make him interesting, nonetheless, if he ever carves out a role in the bigs.

Boston Red Sox catcher Jorge Alfaro has officially been released by the team on Saturday. Alfaro opted out of his minor league contract earlier this week so Boston decided to release him in lieu of promoting him to the big league club. The 29-year-old backstop hit .246 with a .668 OPS over 256 at-bats last season for the Padres and offers a decent blend of power and speed from the catcher position. He should latch on to another club shortly.
