Tyler Wade Fantasy Stats

The San Diego Padres have designated infielder Tyler Wade for assignment. Wade was competing for a depth role in the infield during camp, but fell short in the competition. During camp, Wade held a .209/.292/.349 slash line and tallied just nine hits across 19 contests. He hit just one double and a long ball. Instead, the Padres opted to keep infielder Jose Iglesias on the MLB roster instead. Wade will now pass through waivers before beginning his campaign at Triple-A. Last season, the 30-year-old appeared in 90 contests in San Diego and posted a .217/.285/.239 slash line. He generated a weak .281 xwOBA but showed a strong eye at the plate as he held an 18.6 percent strikeout rate. Fantasy managers in NL-only formats should monitor Iglesias' playing time as he could be a viable bench option if he sees consistent playing time.

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, infielder Tyler Wade and the San Diego Padres have agreed to a one-year, $900,000 contract to avoid arbitration. The 30-year-old posted an underwhelming .217/.285/.239 slash line with just three doubles and eight stolen bases across 90 games in 2024. Despite his underwhelming output, fantasy managers should expect Wade to likely operate as a depth option for San Diego in 2025 and to see occasional starts at multiple positions across the infield. Given his poor output last season, Wade should remain off all fantasy radars heading into 2025, as he will face an uphill battle to find consistent playing time on a stacked roster.

The Oakland Athletics signed infielder Tyler Wade to a minor league deal on Friday. Wade played the second half of the 2022 regular season on a non-roster deal with the New York Yankees but elected free agency earlier this month. The 27-year-old has spent time with the Yankees and Los Angeles Angels in his six big-league seasons. In 67 games with the Angels this year, he slashed .272/.272/.544 with a homer, eight RBI, 22 runs scored and eight stolen bases. The utility infielder had developed into one of New York's more interesting prospects after being a fourth-round pick in 2013, but he never had more than 145 plate appearances and has become more of a utility bat at this stage of his career. With plenty of opportunity in Oakland, Wade will compete for a roster spot in spring training next year.

The New York Yankees acquired utilityman Tyler Wade from the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday, according to a source familiar with the deal. Wade was designated for assignment by the Angels earlier this month, and now he'll head back to the team that drafted him and where he spent his first five seasons. The 27-year-old will head to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. In 67 games for the Halos in 2022, Wade hit .218/.272/.272 with one homer, eight RBI, 22 runs scored and eight stolen bases. The former fourth-round pick will provide infield depth for the Yankees moving forward.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Brandon Marsh and third baseman Tyler Wade are both out of the starting lineup in Game 1 of a doubleheader against the New York Yankees on Thursday. Both left-handed hitters will get a game to rest with Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes on the mound. Marsh is hitting .276/.329/.393 with four homers, 26 RBI, 18 runs scored and three stolen bases in 43 games this year, while Wade hasn't been as good, slashing .229/.288/.302 with one homer, seven RBI, 14 runs and five steals in 41 games. Juan Lagares is starting in left field and is hitting eighth, while Matt Duffy gets the start at third base and is batting cleanup against the Yanks. Duffy is obviously the more attractive DFS play. He doesn't have much power at all, but he has gone 19-for-65 (.292) in 24 games this year.

The Los Angeles Angels acquired utility man Tyler Wade from the New York Yankees Monday, per a Yankees team announcement. The Yankees will receive either cash or a player to be named later in the swap, and the Angels announced that they have designated utility man Kean Wong for assignment in a corresponding move. The speedy, versatile Wade appeared in 103 games in 2021, slashing .268/.354/.323 with no home runs and 17 steals across just 145 plate appearances. He figures to fill a do-it-all role for the Angels in 2022, while providing a speed-and-defense fallback option should the club fail to sign a top shortstop on the free agent market.

Infielder/outfielder Tyler Wade was designated for assignment on Friday by the New York Yankees as part of a series of transactions that saw a number of prospects added to the team's 40-man roster. Wade hit .268 in 145 plate appearances for New York last season, and while he didn't hit for much power with a .055 ISO, the 26-year-old registered a .354 on-base percentage and stole 17 bases while playing every position except first base, pitcher and catcher.

New York Yankees infielder/outfielder Tyler Wade went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles, two stolen bases, and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Royals. Wade doubled and stole third in the fourth inning, promptly scoring on the ensuing play. He later walked and collected another two-bagger as well as a swiped bag. Wade is on fire at the dish, with six hits, four runs scored, and three stolen bases in his last three games. The versatile fielder has started each of the last two contests at third but could also see time at short with both Gleyber Torres (thumb) and Gio Urshela (hamstring) sidelined. Wade is worth picking up while he's hot by roto or category league managers in need of steals.

New York Yankees infielder/outfielder Tyler Wade reached base safely four times, scoring a trio of runs while swiping his eighth stolen base in Monday's win over the Royals. Wade rapped a couple of singles, drew a walk, and reached base on a throwing error, putting his speed to good use. The 26-year-old is off to a hot start in August, as he's 5-for-7 with four runs scored, two RBI, and two stolen bases in five games played. Wade is in line to see his fair share of playing time, with Gleyber Torres (thumb) and Gio Urshela (hamstring) sidelined. So long as he continues to get on base, Wade could be helpful to fantasy managers in need of speed in deeper formats, considering the Yankees' recent emphasis on stealing bases since the All-Star break. As a career .202 hitter, he's more of a short-term solution than a season-long pickup.

The New York Yankees placed right-hander Michael King (finger) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with a right middle finger contusion and recalled infielder/outfielder Tyler Wade from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move. King has been a swing man for the Yankees the last two years, making 14 appearances (six starts) over 48 1/3 innings in 2021. While he has a decent 3.72 ERA and 1.38 WHIP, he hasn't carried any real fantasy value with zero holds. Wade will provide the Yankees with some much-needed bench depth while Miguel Andujar battles a hand issue. The left-hander has 11 hits in 49 at-bats (.224) with no home runs and four stolen bases. Wade will be a short-term option for depth in deep AL-only leagues, at best.
