Ronny Mauricio Fantasy Stats

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio (thumb) will get a CT scan on his broken thumb, and his tentative timeline is six to eight weeks, according to Laura Albanese of Newsday. Manager Carlos Mendoza said the situation at shortstop going forward will be fluid. Bo Bichette is making the start at the 6 on Sunday in Anaheim against the Los Angeles Angels and is batting leadoff against right-hander Jack Kochanowicz, while Brett Baty starts at third and bats cleanup. The Mets put Mauricio on the 10-day injured list on Sunday after fracturing his left thumb in Saturday's loss to the Angels when he dove back into first base. With All-Star Francisco Lindor (calf) already on the IL with a calf strain, the Mets have called up veteran infielder Vidal Brujan from the minors. In addition to Bichette, Brujan could make some starts at shortstop for the Mets, but he probably won't see enough regular playing time to be worth an add off the waiver wire in mixed fantasy leagues. Mauricio is drop-worthy for any managers who picked him up for infield depth when Lindor went on the shelf.

New York Mets shortstop Ronny Mauricio (thumb) will be placed on the 10-day Injured List after suffering a fractured left thumb during Saturday's game. He suffered the injury while diving into first base on an infield hit. This is a tough break for the Mets, who are already without Francisco Lindor (calf) right now. The expectation is that Bo Bichette will slide over to shortstop, and Brett Baty will take over at the hot corner. The Mets haven't given a timetable on Mauricio, but he wasn't much of a fantasy option anyway. Baty could see an uptick in value with him likely getting everyday at-bats now.

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio is a name to consider on the waiver wire this week as the Mets recently called up their former top prospect when Francisco Lindor (calf) went on the injured list. Mauricio was hitting .293 at Triple-A and was already up to six home runs and five steals this season in just 15 games. The steals aren't something fantasy managers should expect in the majors, but he could be a sneaky source of power while filling in at shortstop. The 6-foot-3 Dominican hit six home runs last season with the Mets in only 61 games, and was the owner of the 10th-hardest hit ball in the majors at 117.3 mph back in 2023, the year he debuted. The switch-hitter is 3-for-6 in his last two games, is eligible at both 2B and 3B in Yahoo! leagues, and should soon gain eligibility at SS.

The New York Mets are calling up infielder Ronny Mauricio from Triple-A Syracuse again on Thursday, sources told Francys Romero. Mauricio has been on fire at Syracuse, hitting .333 with five home runs and a 1.142 OPS in the month of April, and he could see decent playing time in New York if shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) is forced to the injured list after being pulled from Wednesday's win over the Minnesota Twins early. If Lindor misses extended time, it's unclear if the Mets will want to move third baseman Bo Bichette to shortstop or put Mauricio there. If Bichette slides over to the 6, Mauricio will be a candidate to play at third base as well, alongside Brett Baty. The 25-year-old switch-hitting Dominican has only hit .234/.294/.359 with a .653 OPS, eight homers, 20 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 89 games over three big-league seasons, but Mauricio is worth consideration as a deep-league waiver-wire pickup if he gets an opportunity for everyday playing time with the Mets if Lindor goes on the IL.

The New York Mets recalled infielder Ronny Mauricio from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday after they placed star outfielder Juan Soto (calf) on the 10-day injured list due to a right-calf strain. Mauricio has plenty of tools and versatility, but he's so far just been a tease for fantasy managers stashing him in dynasty/keeper leagues. The 25-year-old Dominican missed all of the 2024 season due to injury and then disappointed in 61 games for the Mets in 2025, slashing only .226/.293/.369 with a .663 OPS, six home runs, 10 RBI, 19 runs, and four stolen bases in 184 plate appearances. Mauricio hits the ball extremely hard when he makes good contact, and he's extremely athletic, but it remains to be seen if he'll get extended run as a starter in Queens this year. Even with Soto going on the IL, Mauricio likely won't be much more than a utility bat for the Mets early on in 2026. He was hitting .273 (9-for-33) with a homer, three RBI, and three steals in eight games for Syracuse before his call-up.

The New York Mets announced on Thursday that they optioned infielder Ronny Mauricio to Triple-A Syracuse. Mauricio's only real chance to be on the Opening Day roster was if shortstop Francisco Lindor (hand) wasn't ready after having hamate-bone surgery last month. The offseason additions of Marcus Semien and Bo Bichette make it more difficult for the 24-year-old to find a significant role on the infield in the Big Apple in 2026. Mauricio will bide his time in the minors to begin the year before hopefully getting the call eventually to serve as additional infield depth at the major-league level. He swung the bat well in Grapefruit League play, hitting .313/.389/.531 with five RBI, three runs, and two stolen bases in 13 games played. The Dominican infielder missed all of 2024 after having surgery on his knee and then hit .226/.293/.369 with six homers, 10 RBI, 19 runs, and four steals in 61 games played in 2025. While being buried in a crowded infield picture with the Mets, Mauricio is really only a stash candidate in dynasty/keeper leagues, but even there, his star is fading quickly.

New York Mets starting shortstop Francisco Lindor (hand) underwent surgery to fix a broken hamate bone in his hand on Wednesday and might not be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season. With Lindor sidelined this spring, infielders Ronny Mauricio, Vidal Brujan, Grae Kessinger, and Jackson Cluff will take reps at shortstop. The Mets plan to leave Bo Bichette at third base for now. After missing all of 2024 due to a torn ACL in his knee, Mauricio struggled at the plate in 61 major-league games, hitting .226/.293/.369 with a .663 OPS, six home runs, 10 RBI, 15 walks, and 54 strikeouts in 184 plate appearances. The 24-year-old former top prospect is running out of time to make an impact in New York, and even if he does earn the starting nod at shortstop on Opening Day, Lindor isn't expected to miss extended time early on.

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio recorded a monster game on Sunday night in his team's 5-3 victory over the San Francisco Giants. The 24-year-old top prospect went 4-4 with a home run, double, and two RBI. Mauricio has been earning more regular playing time of late at third base, which could be indicative of the Mets' post-deadline plans at the position. His .761 OPS is better than the Mets' other options at third base in Mark Vientos (.640) and Brett Baty (.710), and both of those players have been floated as potential trade chips as the Mets look to upgrade their pitching staff. Mauricio grades out as a positive defender with multi-positional versatility, and he's recorded five home runs and three stolen bases in 122 plate appearances this season.

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio is hitting just .237/.311/.409 with four home runs on the season in 93 at-bats, but he has a .797 OPS in his last 15 games. Mauricio has a very high ceiling and hits the ball very hard when he makes contact, but his main flaw has been to chase pitches out of the strike zone. To improve in that area, the 24-year-old has spent time working in the cages before games with star right fielder Juan Soto, according to The Athletic's Will Sammon. In addition to his plate discipline, Mauricio has also shown improvement on defense. He has been seeing consistent at-bats between third and second base, and if his plate discipline improvements continue into the second half, the Dominican switch-hitter could be an integral piece for the Mets as they look to make a deep postseason run. How the Mets feel about Mauricio could determine what they do at the trade deadline.

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers at Citi Field. Mark Vientos is at third base and is hitting sixth, while Brett Baty will start at the keystone and bat in the nine-hole against Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta. Mauricio, who is playing in just his second MLB season after debuting for the Mets in 2023, is likely going to continue to find consistent playing time in Queens now that Vientos is back from his hamstring injury. The 24-year-old Dominican infielder has also hit jut .224 (15-for-67) with three home runs, five RBI, seven runs scored and two stolen bases while striking out 22 times and walking five times in 20 games this year. It's possible that he could be sent back down to Triple-A Syracuse so that he can continue to play regularly.
