Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas was notably absent from the team's 60-man summer camp roster that was released on Sunday. Tomas was outrighted off the team's 40-man roster last August, and he's obviously fallen off the team's radar, even with a universal designated hitter in play for the shortened 60-game season. The 29-year-old played in just four games for the D-backs in 2019, but he did hit .301/.341/.590 with 29 home runs and 82 RBI in 102 games for Triple-A Reno before his call-up. Before last year, the Cuban native hadn't played in the big leagues since 2017. There's still a chance that Tomas could be added to the team's player pool later on, but he's off the fantasy radar in all leagues for the time being.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas has been optioned to the minors on Thursday. Tomas was called up for four games, so not much time for him to impress. He started in just one game and struck out three times during his six at-bats. He's the highest paid player on the roster after the departure of Zack Greinke. Clearly, the Diamondbacks don't believe in Tomas, so fantasy owners shouldn't bother with him.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees. Tomas was recalled on Friday after hitting .305 with 29 home runs and 80 runs batted in during his time in the minors. This is his first return to the major leagues since 2017. He'll bat eighth and serve as the designated hitter versus lefty J.A. Happ. Tomas is worth a look in deep leagues since he does have some upside with the bat.
Yasmany Tomas Belts Four Home Runs In Triple-A Game
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas collected five hits with four home runs and eight RBI in a 25-8 victory on Monday night for Triple-A Reno against the Tacoma Rainiers, Seattle's Triple-A affiliate. He is the first Pacific Coast League hitter to smack four homers in a single game since 2008. Outfielder Matt Szczur also hit for the cycle while posting three RBI, and first baseman Kevin Cron had two homers and six RBI. Cron leads all of minor league baseball with 21 homers and 62 RBI, and he is tied for the lead with 34 extra-base hits. Arizona has plenty of depth in the minors should injuries call for reinforcements. Remember Cron and Tomas should the need arise.
The Arizona Diamondbacks reassigned outfielder Abraham Almonte, pitchers Stefan Crichton, Rubby De La Rosa, Ricky Nolasco, Braden Shipley, Yasmany Tomas and infielder Kelby Tomlinson to their minor-league camp on Tuesday. Tomas had a run-scoring single in Sunday's Cactus League spring game, and it's likely he'll be back at the first sign of injury to an infielder or an outfielder, as he can be a Swiss Army knife of sorts. Almonte also has a chance to make an impact from a fantasy perspective, but ignore him for now.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas will not opt out of his deal and is set to make $15.5 million in 2019 and $17 million in 2020. Tomas is a defensive liability that spent all of the 2018 season with Triple-A Reno, where he hit .262/.280/.465 with 14 home runs and 65 RBI in 106 games. It'd be a surprise if he didn't play with Arizona at some point next year with them expected to lose A.J. Pollock to free agency, but Tomas won't be on the radar during spring drafts.
Diamondback's outfielder Yasmany Tomas was placed on outright waivers Saturday night. Tomas failed to make the D'Backs Opening Day roster despite Steven Souza starting the year on the DL. With three years and $46 million dollars remaining on his contract, it's unlikely that another team picks him up.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Yasmany Tomas has officially been optioned to Triple-A Reno. There was hope that the Cuban slugger could make the team due to Steven Souza's injury, but manager Torey Lovullo once again emphasized the team's focus on defense, meaning Tomas had no place on the roster behind A.J. Pollock, David Peralta, Jarrod Dyson, Chris Owings and Daniel Descalso. It will be a tough road back to the majors for Tomas, and fantasy owners shouldn't expect him to provide value anytime this season.
The Diamondbacks are considering optioning outfielder Yasmany Tomas. Sources say that Tomas getting optioned is the likely outcome of the situation. With the recent acquisition of Steven Souza and Jarrod Dyson Tomas has been moved way back on the D'Backs depth chart. Even with Souza being out until mid-May, there has been little talk of Tomas getting more at-bats. Unless he is traded to an American league team, Tomas has no Fantasy value while he's with the Diamondbacks organization.
D'Backs outfielder Yasmany Tomas is having a solid spring, having gone 11-for-33 over 13 Cactus League games. Despite the encouraging spring, Tomas will open the season as Arizona's fifth outfielder due to the additions of Steven Souza and Jarrod Dyson. The Diamondbacks have been shopping Tomas to American League teams looking for a designated hitter. Unless he is traded, or two injuries are suffered by the incumbent outfielders, Tomas will not have any fantasy value this season.
