Randy Vásquez News
The San Diego Padres have optioned right-hander Randy Vasquez to Triple-A El Paso to begin the 2024 regular season. Vasquez was acquired from the New York Yankees over the winter in the blockbuster trade involving outfielder Juan Soto, and he came to San Diego in competition for the final starting rotation spot. However, a poor spring showing (6.23 ERA with five walks and nine strikeouts in 8 2/3 Cactus League innings) sealed his fate. The 25-year-old will begin the year down on the farm, but the Friars will surely need him to make starts at some point at the big-league level this year given SD's questionable rotation depth. Vasquez could become an option for fantasy managers in NL-only leagues this year, but he has a low ceiling in mixed leagues as a streamer.
San Diego Padres manager Mike Shildt said that pitchers Jhony Brito and Randy Vasquez will come to spring training as starters behind Joe Musgrove, Yu Darvish and Michael King, with Pedro Avila and Matt Waldron competing for the final spot in the starting rotation. Others to watch include Jairo Iriarte, Jay Groome and Glen Otto. Both Brito and Vasquez were acquired in the blockbuster trade this offseason that sent Juan Soto to the New York Yankees. Brito, 25, looked better in relief in the Bronx in his first MLB season in 2023 and finished with a 4.28 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in 90 1/3 innings. Vasquez, 25, had a strong 2.87 ERA and 1.27 WHIP over just 37 2/3 innings in 11 games (five starts) last year but will be on the fantasy radar in deep NL-only leagues now that it looks like he'll open the season in a starting role in his new digs.
New York Yankees rookie right-hander Randy Vasquez came on in relief on Sunday in the 7-1 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks and surrendered two earned runs on three hits while walking two and striking out two in 2 1/3 innings after replacing starter Carlos Rodon. For the final week of the regular season, Vasquez is likely to continue coming out of the bullpen with Luke Weaver settling into the fifth spot in the starting rotation. The 24-year-old Dominican has only appeared in 10 games (five starts) for the Yankees in his first major-league season, but he's been decent, posting a 2.91 ERA (5.35 FIP), 1.23 WHIP, 16 walks and 27 strikeouts in 34 innings. However, he's also been pretty fortunate given his 10.7 percent walk rate.
