Luis Urías Fantasy Stats

Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias got the start at third base on Sunday in the series finale against the Houston Astros after saying on Saturday night that he was looking forward to getting the chance to play more often against right-handed pitchers. Manager Scott Servais said that could happen more often moving forward. The 26-year-old went 1-for-3 with two RBI on Sunday in the win over Houston, but he's still hitting just .167 (7-for-42) with three home runs, 10 RBI and four runs scored in 20 games in 2024 in his first year in Seattle. Despite the poor average, Urias has been clutch with runners in scoring position, but even with more playing time potentially coming in the near future, he's more of an AL-only asset with the way he's been swinging the bat.

Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias (shoulder) is starting at third base and batting seventh in the order for the team's Cactus League game on Tuesday against the Texas Rangers. It's the first time that Urias has played third base in a game this spring as he returns from a bout of right-shoulder soreness. As long as the 26-year-old infielder doesn't have a setback with his shoulder injury, he should be ready for Opening Day on March 28. Urias was once a top prospect for the San Diego Padres, but injuries and poor performance offensively at the big-league level have him running out of chances to secure a regular role in the majors. Urias is off the fantasy radar in mixed leagues and will be hoping to earn a utility role for the M's in 2024.

Seattle Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said that infielder Luis Urias (shoulder) is going to start trying to throw in infield drills in camp on Friday, but he'll be limited. The hope is that Urias can be ready for Opening Day in late March. The 26-year-old is being held back in spring training due to right-shoulder inflammation, and he's still no guarantee to be ready by Opening Day. If healthy, Urias will have an opportunity to earn playing time at the hot corner in Seattle, but he hasn't proven to be fantasy relevant in mixed leagues in recent seasons. In his six years in the majors with the Padres, Brewers and Red Sox, Urias holds a .234/.333/.385 slash line with 48 homers, 180 RBI and nine steals in 445 games. He's become somewhat of a Quad-A player that just hasn't gotten over the hump at the highest level.

Seattle Mariners third baseman Luis Urias (shoulder) could need to open the 2024 regular season on the injured list due to right-shoulder inflammation. Urias has been throwing from around 70 feet at spring training, but it doesn't sound like he's close to making his Cactus League debut. On top of it, the 26-year-old infielder didn't play well in the Mexican winter league and showed up to camp in less-than-stellar shape. When healthy, the former top prospect of the San Diego Padres will likely be stuck in a platoon role at the hot corner in Seattle with Josh Rojas. Dylan Moore, Sam Haggerty, and Brian Anderson are also options for the Mariners at the position. Already only an option in AL-only fantasy leagues, Urias' stock is dropping even further due to his shoulder injury this spring.

Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias (shoulder) came in a couple of weeks ago to the team's spring training facilities and was dealing with some right-shoulder inflammation before being shut down from throwing. However, tests came back good, and he was able to resume work at camp on Monday. The 26-year-old has plenty of time to get ready for Opening Day in late March, although he could be eased into Cactus League play. Once one of the San Diego Padres' top prospects, the Mexican infielder has become more of a Quad-A player, hitting just .234 with 48 home runs in six major-league seasons. Urias slashed just .194/.337/.299 with three homers, 18 RBI and 41 strikeouts in 52 games with the Brewers and Red Sox in 2023 and comes to Seattle as infield depth in 2024.

Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias will likely play third base for his new club in the 2024 season. The news comes after Wednesday's trade of third baseman Eugenio Suarez to the D-backs in exchange for right-hander Carlos Vargas and catcher Seby Zavala. Recently acquired in a trade with the Boston Red Sox, Urias has experience at third base, shortstop, and second base in his big-league career, and while his 1,319 1/3 innings at the hot corner are his most at any single position, he does have fairly even playing time at those three spots. The 26-year-old struggled to a .194 average with three homers across 177 plate appearances between the Brewers and Red Sox in 2023 but did swat 39 home runs across the 2021 and 2022 seasons and posted a healthy .789 OPS as recently as the 2021 campaign.

Boston Red Sox infielder Luis Urias has been traded to the Seattle Mariners on Friday. The Red Sox were likely going to non-tender Urias, but instead were able to get something for him. In exchange for Urias, the Red Sox will receive right-hander Isaiah Campbell. Urias was unable to get anything going during his injury-plagued 2023 season. He slashed .194/.337/.299 with three home runs and 18 RBI in 45 games. The good news is, Urias is only 26 years old and has posted good numbers in the past. The Mariners are willing to roll the dice here and might have a possible starting second baseman if Urias can turn it around.

The Boston Red Sox placed infielder Luis Urias (calf) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Sept. 21) on Friday with a left-calf strain and recalled infielder Enmanuel Valdez from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. The move to put Urias on the injured list will effectively end his 2023 season. The 26-year-old Mexican spent this year with the Milwaukee Brewers and Red Sox, hitting a miserable .194/.337/.299 with only three home runs, six doubles, 18 RBI and 18 runs scored in 177 trips to the plate over 52 games played. In 32 games for Boston, he hit .225 (20-for-89) with two homers, 13 RBI and 13 runs scored. With Urias out of the picture, Pablo Reyes and rookie Ceddanne Rafaela will battle for extra playing time on Boston's infield for the final nine games of the season.

Boston Red Sox infielder Luis Urias (calf) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers. Urias was lifted from the contest for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning of Wednesday's contest. The team is calling the injury left calf tightness, so for now fantasy managers should consider Urias as day-to-day. The assumption is that he'll undergo additional testing to determine the severity of the injury. The Red Sox will likely use a committee approach to fill the void if Urias does miss time.

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias is headed to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for right-handed pitcher Bradley Blalock. The 26-year-old infielder has been dreadful at the plate this season, but the Red Sox want to see if they can tap into his potential. Urias is slashing .145/.299/.236 with one home run and five RBI in 17 games with the Brewers this season. He has spent a majority of his time in the minors and has been optioned to Triple-A Worcester with the move to Boston. Urias was productive each of the last two seasons, so the Red Sox will try and turn him around.
