Taylor Trammell Fantasy Stats

Houston Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell (neck) was scheduled to start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday night. Trammell is working his way back from a concussion and cervical strain in his neck on Aug. 21 but is now ready to play in games on the farm. Depending on how he bounces back, the 27-year-old could be ready to rejoin the big-league roster by early next week. However, with Yordan Alvarez back in the fold for the Astros, Trammell will most likely be a bench outfielder for the first-place squad when he's activated off the 10-day injured list. The former first-rounder of the Cincinnati Reds in 2016 has hit just .208 (20-for-96) with three home runs, 11 RBI, 10 runs scored and two stolen bases in his 42 games played with Houston this year. Trammell belongs on the waiver wire in most mixed fantasy leagues.

Houston Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell (neck, concussion) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Thursday. Trammell will head to the shelf due to a cervical muscle strain that he suffered during Wednesday's contest. It's also worth noting that Trammell remains in the concussion protocol as well. He's currently with the team for their series in Baltimore while he recovers from these issues. In the meantime, Brice Matthews has been recalled to take over the spot on the active roster. Neither player brings enough upside with the bat to warrant rostering in fantasy formats.

Houston Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell (undisclosed) was carted off the field during Wednesday's contest against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park after hitting the wall hard while pursuing a triple by Dillon Dingler, according to Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. Trammell tried to walk off the field with help but couldn't make it and had to be carted off. The 27-year-old didn't have an official at-bat in the contest before being replaced in center field by Jacob Melton. Trammell landed hard on his backside during a catch in foul territory during Tuesday's loss, but he stayed in the game and received clearance to play on Wednesday. We'd say there's a good chance he won't play in Thursday's series finale against the Baltimore Orioles, and Trammell could be facing an extended absence. Check back for more details on the severity and specific nature of his injury. UPDATE: Trammell was being evaluated for a concussion, but he will travel with the team to Baltimore.

Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports that the Houston Astros have reinstated outfielder Taylor Trammell (calf) to the big-league roster on Monday and optioned third baseman Shay Whitcomb to Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old has yet to appear in a game in 2025 since straining his calf in spring training. Trammell recently completed his minor-league rehab assignment and slashed a solid .293/.389/.561 through 41 at-bats across two levels. However, it's worth noting that dipped to .231/.343/.462 upon his arrival to Triple-A. He figures to get some at-bats against right-handed pitching, but isn't an appealing option for fantasy managers considering a career .167 average (311 at-bats).

Houston Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell (calf) will start his minor-league rehab assignment at the rookie-level Florida Complex League on Tuesday. Trammell is finally ready to start playing in games again after missing all of the season to this point with a strained right calf. The 27-year-old former first-rounder by the Cincinnati Reds in 2016 spent the 2024 season with the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees but appeared in just 10 games, going 1-for-7 with a walk and three strikeouts. Trammell will most likely require a month-long rehab assignment, and there's a good bet he'll be sent back to the minors when he's fully healthy. So far in four big-league seasons, Trammell has looked thoroughly overmatched at the plate, slashing .167/.270/.363 with 15 homers, 39 RBI, four steals and 133 strikeouts in 359 plate appearances.

Houston Astros outfielder Taylor Trammell (calf) suffered a right calf strain while running the bases on Friday. Brian McTaggart of MLB.com noted that the outfielder is expected to be sidelined for "a little bit." Trammell was traded to the Astros from the New York Yankees earlier in the offseason in exchange for cash considerations. Last summer, Trammell appeared in just 10 MLB contests (split with the Dodgers and Yankees) and held a .143/.250/.143 line. During the 2023 campaign, Trammell held a .130/.286/.326 line across 22 contests with the Seattle Mariners. Given this recent injury and lack of success in the majors, the 27-year-old will likely open the campaign in the minor leagues.

The New York Yankees claimed outfielder Taylor Trammell off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday. To make room on their 40-man roster, the Yankees designated infielder Kevin Smith for assignment. The Dodgers dumped Trammell off their 40-man roster earlier this week after going hitless with three strikeouts in six plate appearances with them over five games. The former 35th overall pick by the Cincinnati Reds in 2016 out of high school just has not been able to figure out major-league pitching in 121 games, batting .165 (51-for-310) with 15 home runs, 39 RBI and four stolen bases. For now, he'll ride the pine in the Bronx while providing outfield depth behind Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Giancarlo Stanton, Alex Verdugo and Trent Grisham.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Taylor Trammell is starting in left field and is batting ninth for the Dodgers on Monday against the Minnesota Twins and right-handed Bailey Ober for the series opener. The former top prospect with the Seattle Mariners will make his first start for the Blue after being claimed off waivers from Seattle and called up to the majors when Jason Heyward (back) landed on the injured list last week. The 26-year-old probably isn't going to see many more starts this year and isn't a recommended DFS play for Monday's slate. The left-handed hitter is a career .167/.269/.367 hitter in 118 big-league games with 15 home runs, 39 RBI and four stolen bases in 352 plate appearances. Trammell didn't record a hit in his only career at-bat against Ober.

The Los Angeles Dodgers claimed outfielder Taylor Trammell off waivers on Tuesday after he was recently designated for assignment by the Seattle Mariners, according to a source. Trammell, 26, has not lived up to his first-round pedigree since the Cincinnati Reds took him 35th overall in 2016. All three of his big-league seasons have come with the Seattle Mariners, and he's hit just .168/.270/.368 with 15 home runs, 39 RBI, four stolen bases and 45 runs scored in 116 games played. In the last three years with the M's, Trammell has struck out nearly 40 percent of the time. If it was hard for Trammell to stick at the major-league level with the Mariners, it's going to be even harder to do so in the Dodgers' organization.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Taylor Trammell is starting in left field for Sunday's series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays. Trammell was called up in the wake of Jarred Kelenic's (foot) injury earlier in the week so this will be his first game starting. Dylan Moore, who's played in every contest since Kelenic went down, will be getting Sunday off. Trammell owns a .274/.387/.537 batting line with 12 home runs, 32 RBI, and six stolen bases across 45 games at Triple-A Tacoma this season but is batting just .133 with a .611 OPS in 20 games with the M's. There's not much, if any, fantasy appeal here. Trammell is batting eighth and Kolten Wong, who is starting at second base, is batting ninth against Alek Manoah.
