Designated for assignment
The Cardinals designated Barrero for assignment Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Barrero played sparingly after being added to the roster in late April and slashed just .138/.194/.276 in 26 contests. The transaction clears a spot on the 26-man and 40-man rosters for the addition of waiver claim Garrett Hampson.

Stat Review
How does Jose Barrero compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024

2021
2020
After three partial seasons in the majors - all as a second-half addition - Barrero parlayed a strong spring into a spot on the Reds' Opening Day roster in 2023. He received ample playing time as a shortstop and center fielder before being swept up in the June transition, when the organization called up a corps of young prospects. At the time, Barrero was batting .218/.295/.323, although he showed an improved eye and reduced his strikeout rate. In 80 games for Triple-A Louisville, the 25-year-old powered up with career-highs in home runs (19) and slugging (.540) while also stealing 20 bags, but he was never recalled to the majors as Cincinnati vied for a playoff spot. The organization's plan for him in 2024 is unclear and a spot on the 40-man roster is in jeopardy. Entering his age-26 season, Barrero's MLB track record does not scream "everyday player," and he has no options left.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Could be trade chip
Barrero's pedigree as a prospect might generate moderate trade intrigue, opines C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old shortstop struggled across 149 plate appearances with the Reds this season, slashing just .218/.295/.323. He's fared much better in Triple-A, however, hitting .286 with a .950 OPS through 25 games. Barrero is an expendable piece for Cincinnati given all the other young players that have moved past him on the depth chart, including current starting infielders Matt McLain and Elly De La Cruz.
