Tommy Pham Fantasy Stats

The New York Mets recalled veteran outfielder Tommy Pham from Single-A St. Lucie on Monday, according to Will Sammon of The Athletic. The move comes with the Mets searching for some offense during their five-game losing streak. In a corresponding move, infielder Ronny Mauricio was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse. Pham will receive a $2.25 million base salary for reaching the majors. In 12 games for St. Lucie, Pham went 2-for-12 at the plate. He'll now provide the Mets with outfield depth in addition to rookie Carson Benge, Brett Baty, Jared Young, Tyrone Taylor, and Luis Robert Jr. With the Mets missing All-Star outfielder Juan Soto, they have a season-wide .658 OPS. The 38-year-old Pham is in his 13th year in the big leagues, so he certainly has experience, but he'll continue to have minimal fantasy appeal as a part-time corner outfielder, potentially in the short-term. In 120 games with the Pirates in 2025, Pham had a .245/.330/.370 slash line with a .700 OPS, 10 home runs, 52 RBI, 44 runs scored, and five steals in 449 plate appearances.

The New York Mets have signed outfielder Tommy Pham to a minor-league contract, according to Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com. Pham remained a free agent throughout all of spring training, which means he hasn't played in a game since September 28, 2025, with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He'll presumably need to ramp back up before he reports to the Mets' Triple-A affiliate in Syracuse, where he'll offer depth and a proven veteran presence. The 38-year-old continued to put the ball in play last season, slashing a modest .245/.330/.370 with an 11.1% walk rate, a 20.9% strikeout rate, and 94 wRC+ across 120 games. He bats right-handed and posted reverse splits in 2025, contributing an OPS of .716 against right-handed pitching and .651 against southpaws. Given his decent numbers at the plate last year, we wouldn't be surprised if Pham is the first player the Mets turn to when an outfielder or right-handed bat gets injured this season.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Tommy Pham (illness) remains out of the starting nine on Saturday. Pham was a late scratch on Friday due to an illness and was unable to progress enough to return on Saturday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Sunday's game. This afternoon, Alexander Canario will get the starting nod in left field and is slated to bat in the eight-hole. Through his first 32 games of the season, Pham has held a low .183/.259/.221 slash line with three stolen bases. He has yet to go deep. Under the hood, the 37-year-old has placed in the third percentile in xwOBA and the sixth percentile in xBA. Canario hit a home run during Friday's contest, but is best to fade in DFS this afternoon, facing Atlanta right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver.

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Joey Bart and outfielder Tommy Pham will start Tuesday's game against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals on the bench at Busch Stadium. Henry Davis is catching and hitting ninth, while Alexander Canario will start in left field and bat fifth against Cardinals left-hander Matthew Liberatore. Although Bart has just one long ball on the season in 87 at-bats, he's done well as Pittsburgh's primary catcher with a strong .276 average (24-for-87) with seven RBI, seven runs and a stolen base. The 28-year-old will take a seat after starting the last four games. Pham could use a rest after going 2-for-18 of late as the team's primary left fielder. Canario is starting to see more playing time of late with Pham slumping, though. Davis has never faced Liberatore in his career, while Canario is hitless against him in just three at-bats.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Tommy Pham (illness) was removed from Friday's game early at PNC Park versus the visiting New York Yankees due to an illness. Pham is being treated and is considered day-to-day. Pham was replaced in left field by Alexander Canario after going hitless in his only plate appearance with a groundout in the second inning. We'd be surprised if the 37-year-old is in the starting lineup for Saturday's second game of the series. In addition to the illness, it's been a rough start to the 2025 season for Pham, who came into Friday's contest hitting .087 (2-for-23) in the early going with a double, three stolen bases, three walks and eight strikeouts in 27 plate appearances over seven games played. Hopefully Pham will be feeling good enough for the start of a new series on Monday against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielders Andrew McCutchen and Tommy Pham are not in Saturday's starting lineup. Instead, Bryan Reynolds will serve as the designated hitter, which will open right field for Jack Suwinski. With Pham sitting out, Ji-Hwan Bae will cover left field. Through the first two games of the season, McCutchen has gone 1-for-7 with a double, an RBI, and a walk. Pham has also had a modest output in the batter's box, going 1-for-8 at the plate. However, Pham has swiped a bag in each of the first two games and added a double. Last season, Suwinski posted a .182/.264/.324 slash line with nine home runs and nine stolen bases. Bae struggled across his brief 29-game stint in the majors last season, holding a .189 AVG. Neither player should be targeted in DFS facing Miami right-hander Valente Bellozo.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Tommy Pham (hip) was removed early during Sunday's spring training contest. Pham went 1-for-2 at the plate before exiting the contest due to left hip tightness. The severity of the injury is unknown right now, but Pham will likely undergo additional testing. Fantasy managers should expect another update on Pham after the testing is completed. Pham signed with Pittsburgh over the offseason after hitting .248/.305/.368 with nine home runs and 39 RBI with three different teams last season.

According to Katie Woo of The Athletic, outfielder Tommy Pham signed a one-year deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates worth $4 million. Pham opened the 2024 season with the Chicago White Sox and was eventually shipped to St. Louis and then concluded the season in Kansas City. Across 116 contests, Pham held a .248/.305/.368 line. He tallied 20 doubles, nine home runs, and seven stolen bases. Under the hood, the 36-year-old generated a solid .263 xBA and a .407 xSLG, suggesting he should see some positive regression in 2025. Pham also generated a 42.7 percent hard-hit rate, which was above the average mark. At the plate, Pham held a 7.3 percent walk and a 22.2 percent strikeout rate which were both just below the average marks. Fantasy managers should expect Pham to compete for starts in right field with Nick Yorke as a platoon bat or see time as a designated hitter alongside Andrew McCutchen.

With a right-hander on the mound for the Baltimore Orioles in Game 2 of the wild-card series on Wednesday at Camden Yards, Kansas City Royals veteran outfielder Tommy Pham will start on the bench. Hunter Renfroe will instead get the nod in right field and will bat seventh against Orioles right-hander Zach Eflin. In the Game 1 win over the O's on Tuesday, Pham made the start in right field and went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in the victory. Neither veteran outfielder is particularly attractive in DFS while hitting near the bottom of the Royals' batting order. The 32-year-old Renfroe doesn't move the needle much offensively these days after slashing .229/.297/.392 with a below-average .689 OPS, 15 home runs and 52 RBI in 120 games this year for KC. He hit just .177 (9-for-51) with three homers, five RBI and 16 strikeouts in 16 games in the month of September.

Free agent outfielder Tommy Pham has been claimed by the Kansas City Royals, according to Katie Woo of The Athletic. Pham was DFA'd by the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday, only a month after acquiring him at the trade deadline. Pham posted a mere .208/.286/.368 slash line with two home runs across his 23-game stint in St. Louis. However, earlier this summer with the White Sox, the veteran held a solid .266/.330/.380 line. Fantasy managers should expect the 36-year-old to see most of his starts in right field and will likely compete with switch-hitter Robbie Grossman for playing time. Managers in deeper leagues should consider adding Pham as he could earn a stable spot in the starting nine and should produce solid counting stats batting in the heart of a competing Royals lineup.
