Josh VanMeter News
Free-agent infielder/outfielder Josh VanMeter signed a minor-league deal with the New York Yankees on Wednesday, according to a source. VanMeter didn't play in the big leagues at all this past season and instead slashed a combined .209/.400/.354 with six home runs, 22 RBI and 34 runs scored in 51 total games in the Arizona Complex League and at Triple-A Nashville in the Milwaukee Brewers organization. The 28-year-old utility player made his big-league debut in 2019 with the Cincinnati Reds and has played in four seasons in the majors with three teams, hitting .206/.293/.347 with 19 home runs, 79 RBI and 17 stolen bases in 300 games. VanMeter will most likely open the year as organizational infield and outfield depth at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Josh VanMeter (leg) was scratched from the Cactus League lineup on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants due to lower left leg tendinitis. In his place, Andruw Monasterio will start at the keystone and hit eighth against Giants right-hander Sean Hjelle. The 27-year-old VanMeter is in spring training with the Brew Crew this year as a non-roster invitee. His injury doesn't sound very serious, so there's a chance he won't be forced to miss much Cactus League action at all. In four major-league seasons, VanMeter has a .206/.293/.347 slash line with a .640 OPS, 19 home runs, 79 RBI, 83 runs scored and 17 stolen bases in 300 games. He's off the fantasy radar, even if he wins an Opening Day roster spot with Milwaukee.
The Milwaukee Brewers signed free-agent infielder Josh VanMeter to a minor-league deal with an invitation to major-league spring training on Monday. VanMeter will join the Brew Crew after hitting just .187/.266/.292 with a .558 OPS, three home runs, 14 RBI, 15 runs scored and four stolen bases in 192 plate appearances and 67 games for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2022. The 27-year-old left-handed hitter will compete for a roster spot in spring training as bench depth. In his four major-league seasons, VanMeter has hit .206/.293/.347 with 19 home runs, 79 RBI, 83 runs scored and 17 stolen bases in 300 games, so there isn't much offensive upside to speak of.
