Joshua Fuentes News
The Atlanta Braves signed infielder Joshua Fuentes to a minor-league deal on Saturday. Fuentes did not play at all in the big leagues in 2022. He began the year with Triple-A Buffalo in the Toronto Blue Jays' system, hitting .162/.205/.200 with a homer and five RBI in 29 games before playing in the Mexican independent league the rest of the year. The 29-year-old will simply be trying to impress in spring training, but he's likely to begin the 2023 campaign in the minors as infield depth for the Braves. Fuentes has played in three seasons in the majors and has hit .243/.269/.377 with a .646 OPS, 12 home runs, 57 RBI, 52 runs scored and two stolen bases in 149 games for the Colorado Rockies. He won't enter the 2023 season on the fantasy radar.
Colorado Rockies infielder Josh Fuentes has been optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque along with right-handed pitcher Jesus Tinoco. Both players were part of a corresponding move as pitchers Jose Mujica (recalled) and the recently acquired Ashton Goudeau (activated) join the big league roster. Fuentes had a few bright moments earlier this season but ultimately wasn't able to contribute on a consistent basis. He'll most likely make a return to the big league club later on this season. He currently holds a .228/.261/.357 batting line to go along with seven home runs, 32 RBI, and 30 runs scored over 263 at-bats. He can be safely dropped in redraft leagues.
Colorado Rockies third baseman Josh Fuentes went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit, two-run homer in a 5-4 extra-innings loss to the Brewers on Friday. Fuentes wasn't in the starting lineup for this one as Ryan McMahon (forearm) was making his return. He was called upon as a pinch-hitter in the top of the seventh inning and swatted a two-run blast off of Trevor Richards to put the Rockies up 4-0. It was his only at-bat of the night and Colorado would go on to lose the game in extra-innings. The 28-year-old now owns a .238/.271/.397 batting line to go along with seven home runs and 30 RBI across 214 at-bats this year. He doesn't hold much fantasy value being a part-time player with poor rate stats.
