Ramón Urías Fantasy Stats

The Houston Astros will acquire third baseman Ramon Urias from the Baltimore Orioles, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Single-A right-hander Twine Palmer is going to Baltimore in return, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Urias will give the Astros a veteran third base option to help cover for the loss of Isaac Paredes (hamstring), who could miss the rest of the season with a hamstring injury. While Urias doesn't make the same type of offensive impact as Paredes, the 31-year-old has offered respectable production since debuting with the Orioles in 2020. Urias has batted .259/.324/.404 with 47 home runs in 1,755 career plate appearances. He hit .248/.300/.388 with eight homers, 34 RBI, 27 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 290 trips to the plate with the O's this year.

Baltimore Orioles third baseman Ramon Urias turned in a productive game in his team's 10-1 win over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday. Urias went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a stolen base in the win. The veteran infielder ripped a two-run homer off Detroit starter Casey Mize to give the Orioles a 2-0 lead in the third inning. Urias is now hitting .278 with three homers, 16 runs, 21 RBI, and one steal across 151 at-bats this season. He is not a very strong fantasy option outside of AL-only leagues.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) is progressing well and could return from the 10-day injured list next Tuesday or Wednesday, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The Orioles placed Urias on the IL last Saturday with a strained right hamstring. It was bad timing for Urias with Jordan Westburg (hamstring) already on the IL. Now that the Orioles have sent prospect Coby Mayo back to the minors, Emmanuel Rivera is Baltimore's primary third baseman until one of Urias or Westburg return. The 30-year-old Urias was hitting a strong .292 (21-for-72) at the time of his injury, but it came with only two home runs, nine RBI and five runs scored in a utility infield role. Even if he's in a full-time role at third in the short-term when he comes off the IL, Urias is really only attractive in AL-only leagues due to his limited power and speed.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) will return to the starting lineup on Thursday against the New York Yankees. Urias is slated to bat eighth and cover the hot corner. Urias has been sidelined over the past week due to this injury. However, seeing him return to the starting nine quite quickly suggests the injury is not overly serious. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status in case he faces a setback. Last season, Urias appeared in 100 contests in Baltimore. Across this stint, he held a .254/.322/.423 slash line with nine doubles and 11 home runs. He swiped one bag and held a strong 18.3 percent strikeout rate. During the regular season, Urias will likely see time as a depth option in the infield. He could have an increased role early in the campaign if Gunnar Henderson (intercostal) is unable to play at the start of the season.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) is expected to return to the Grapefruit League lineup on Thursday against the division-rival New York Yankees after an off day on Wednesday, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The 30-year-old veteran has been dealing with some minor hamstring soreness of late but should be ready to go later in the week. If shortstop Gunnar Henderson (intercostal) is forced to open the year on the injured list, Urias would likely start at second base for the Orioles, with young infielder Jackson Holliday likely shifting to the 6. If all of Baltimore's infielders are healthy, Urias profiles as a bench player in 2025 who can fill in at second or third base when needed. The Mexican infielder hit .254/.322/.423 with 11 home runs, 37 RBI and 39 runs scored in 100 games in his fifth year with the team in 2024. Given his lack of playing time, Urias is only an option in AL-only leagues.

The Baltimore Orioles and infielder Ramon Urias settled on a one-year, $3.15 million deal to avoid salary arbitration on Thursday. Even before missing time with an ankle injury, Urias was seeing less playing time in Baltimore. When the 30-year-old veteran infielder did play, he was solid, slashing .254/.322/.423 with 11 home runs, 37 RBI and 39 runs scored in 100 games played. Urias made plenty of contact and hit more fly balls, with his 11 homers representing the second-highest total of his career. He typically doesn't make a ton of loud contact at the plate, though, and with a bench role likely in 2025, there's not enough upside to consider Urias in shallow-mixed fantasy leagues. However, Urias can play almost everywhere on the infield, so an injury could quickly open up regular playing time for him.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (ankle) was activated off the 10-day injured list on Sunday morning and will bat in the eight spot this afternoon as the Orioles look to claim the rubber match against the Detroit Tigers. Urias has been sidelined since the end of August with a sprained ankle. Fantasy managers should expect him to see the majority of starts at the hot corner during the remainder of the regular season and in October. Before the injury, the 30-year-old posted a .252/.327/.427 line with ten round-trippers and one stolen base. Urias is worth a look as a value play in DFS as the Tigers will have bullpen game this afternoon.

Baltimore Orioles infielders Jordan Westburg (hand) and Ramon Urias (ankle) will both need multiple minor-league rehab games before returning to the big-league roster, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The skipper said he wouldn't be surprised if Urias comes off the injured list first. Westburg was expected to begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday as he works his way back from a fractured right hand that has kept him out since early August. The 25-year-old took batting practice on Tuesday and could rejoin the club early next week. Westburg is sitting on 18 homers on the year and should be Baltimore's preferred option at the hot corner when he's back, although they could ease him in and have him share playing time with Urias to close out the regular season in September. Urias has been out since late August with a right-ankle sprain.

Baltimore Orioles running back Ramon Urias (ankle) is progressing with his sprained right ankle but has yet to resume baseball activities. However, Urias is confident that he can play before the regular season ends at the end of September. The 30-year-old veteran infielder suffered a sprained ankle on Aug. 31 and landed on the 10-day injured list. With Jordan Westburg (hand) still also on the IL, the Orioles have been forced to mix and match at the hot corner with rookie Coby Mayo, Emmanuel Rivera and Nick Maton. Mayo has the most upside of the trio as one of the team's top prospects, but he's struggled in his first 23 big-league at-bats with just two hits, three runs scored, three walks and 13 strikeouts in nine games played entering Friday. Depending on when Westburg returns, Urias could become the top option at the hot corner if he returns before the postseason.

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that infielder Ramon Urias (ankle) is still on crutches for his sprained ankle and there's no timetable for his return from the 10-day injured list. "I don't know how long that's going to be. A sprained ankle could be two to four weeks. Who knows?" Hyde said. Basically, Urias isn't guaranteed to return from the IL before the end of the regular season in September. The 30-year-old veteran sprained his right ankle against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field on Saturday and was put on the IL on Sunday. At least until Jordan Westburg (hand) returns from his own IL stint, the Orioles are moving forward with top prospect Coby Mayo at the hot corner, with Emmanuel Rivera also seeing some time there. It's bad timing for Urias, who had gone 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers, a double, triple, eight RBI and a steal in his last eight games dating back to Aug. 23.
