Trey Mancini Fantasy Stats

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Trey Mancini returned to the majors for the first time since July 31, 2023, and he looked impressive in his first game back. The 34-year-old righty went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in his team's 5-4, extra-inning loss to the Astros. He put up solid numbers in Triple-A last year for the Diamondbacks, hitting .308 with 16 homers and a .389 wOBA before opting out on July 1st. He slashed .273/.377/.464 in 52 games in Triple-A this season with six homers, 40 runs scored, and 29 RBI before returning to the majors on Monday. Mancini could get some playing time with Nolan Schanuel (ankle) battling tendinitis and Vaughn Grissom (oblique) on the injured list. Mancini has hit well enough at Triple-A to be an interesting deep-league pickup and streaming option if he continues to get playing time for the Halos. He doesn't have elite power or an extremely high ceiling, but he has proven that he can make consistent contact and accumulate counting stats.

The Los Angeles Angels have signed veteran first baseman Trey Mancini to a minor-league contract, according to Ken Rosenthal. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed, but it seems likely that Mancini will be headed to spring training as a non-roster invite. The former eight-round pick hasn't played in the majors since 2023, and he spent the first half of last season with the Diamondbacks' Triple-A affiliate, slashing .308/.373/.522 with 110 wRC+ across 74 games before opting out of his contract. He's been a free agent ever since, and now, he'll presumably head to Angels camp in Arizona with a chance to compete for an Opening Day roster spot. Nolan Schanuel has first base locked down for the Halos, but he's the only first baseman on the 40-man roster. Assuming the Angels choose to carry two first basemen into the regular season, Mancini and Niko Kavadas should compete for the role.

First baseman/outfielder Trey Mancini has exercised an opt-out clause in his minor league contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports. Mancini is now a free agent. After taking 2024 off, Mancini joined the Diamondbacks over the winter and spent the first few months of the season with their Triple-A affiliate in Reno. The 33-year-old slashed .308/.373/.522 with 16 home runs and 62 RBI in 335 plate appearances in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, leading him to test free agency again. Mancini is best known for a successful stint with the Orioles from 2016-22. He slugged between 21 and 35 home runs four times during that span and earned AL Comeback Player of the Year honors in 2021 after making a remarkable return from a battle with colon cancer. In 2023, his most recent major league season, Mancini hit .234/.299/.336 with four homers in 263 trips to the plate as a member of the Chicago Cubs.

Veteran first baseman/outfielder Trey Mancini and the Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to a minor-league deal on Friday that includes an invitation to spring training, a source told ESPN's Jeff Passan. The 32-year-old right-handed slugger didn't play at all in 2024 but has remained in shape and will now get his chance to resurface in the big leagues. Mancini last played in 2023 for the Chicago Cubs, slashing .234/.299/.336 with a career-low .635 OPS, four home runs and 28 RBI in only 79 games. He had a .276/.335/.485 slash line with an .819 OPS and 86 homers in his first four years with Baltimore before a cancer diagnosis that caused him to miss all of 2020. Since then, he's slashed .245/.318/.398 with a .717 OPS and 43 homers in three seasons with Baltimore, Houston and the Cubs. If Mancini makes the big-league roster, it will likely be as a bench bat for the Snakes.

Free-agent first baseman Trey Mancini has signed a minor-league deal with the Miami Marlins that includes an invite to major-league spring training. The veteran was designated for assignment by the Cubs in early August and while he briefly latched on with the Reds, the club released him by the end of August. While the 31-year-old has largely been a productive bat throughout his career, he cratered to a .234 average alongside just four home runs and a .635 OPS across 263 plate appearances with the Cubs in 2023, production that graded out 26% below the league average, as per his 74 wRC+. Mancini owns a solid 109 wRC+ in parts of seven MLB seasons split between the Orioles, Astros, and Cubs while he will battle for reps at first base, designated hitter, and potentially the outfield with the Marlins in spring training.

The Cincinnati Reds have signed first baseman Trey Mancini to a minor-league deal. The 31-year-old veteran was recently cut by the Chicago Cubs after signing a two-year deal with the organization this past offseason. This season, Mancini is slashing .234/.299/.366 with four home runs and 28 RBI in 63 games. The expectation is that he'll likely head to Triple-A in order to get his bat back up to speed. Mancini should be able to provide some right-handed power to the Reds lineup for a postseason push. However, Mancini hasn't done enough this season to prove that a move to Cincinnati will give him reliable fantasy value.

First baseman/designated hitter Trey Mancini cleared waivers on Thursday and is now a free agent, according to MLB.com. The Chicago Cubs designated the 31-year-old for assignment on August 1 after slashing .234/.299/.336 with four homers, 31 runs, and 28 RBI over 79 games. Mancini hasn't been the same since his 2019 campaign, in which he posted a .899 OPS, as he owns just a .717 mark since. The seven-year veteran is likely irrelevant in all fantasy leagues for the remainder of 2023, even if he latches onto another team.

The Chicago Cubs are "planning to remove" Trey Mancini from their roster, according to Michael Cerami of Bleacher Nation. As of now, it's unclear whether Mancini will be traded, designated for assignment, or released. However, his time in Chicago is over. The 31-year-old is in the midst of a frustrating season, slashing .234/.299/.336 with a 29.7 K% and 74 wRC+. He has spent most of the year at first base but also logged reps as the Cubs' right fielder and designated hitter. FanGraphs' WAR metric labels Mancini as below replacement level both offensively (-10.5 oWAR) and defensively (-6.6 dWAR).

Chicago Cubs first baseman Trey Mancini hit a two-run home run in the fourth inning off pitcher Michael Wacha, contributing to the team's effort despite the eventual 5-3 loss to the Padres Wednesday. The home run was Mancini's third of the season. Mancini has been on a roll in the last six games, hitting 8-for-19 with two home runs and five RBI. This streak has boosted his season batting average to .253 for the Cubs.

Chicago Cubs first baseman Trey Mancini is taking a seat on the bench for Tuesday's matchup against Ken Waldichuk and the Oakland Athletics. It's his second day off over the past five games, and he's struggling at the dish with a .196 batting average and .470 OPS. Luis Torrens is taking his spot in the lineup, batting ninth at designated hitter. The 26-year-old is slashing .300/.364/.300 with no home runs in eight contests. Over his six seasons in the Majors, Torrens only has one above-average offensive season in terms of wRC+ and posted just a .581 OPS last season, so chances are there are better bat options on the wire.
