Added to roster
The Padres selected Maldonado's contract from Triple-A El Paso prior to Thursday's 7-4 win over Atlanta. Maldonado was used off the bench and struck out in his lone plate appearance.
ANALYSIS
Maldonado secured his spot on the Opening Day roster as a backup catcher over Luis Campusano, who was optioned to Triple-A over the weekend. Elias Diaz received the nod behind the dish in Thursday's opener and is expected to dominate the playing time at catcher this season, with Maldonado likely being limited to one or two starts per week.

Much has been decided in the National League over the last few days, including the Giants' fifth starter job, which was won by Landen Roupp.

Todd Zola explains how projected playing time and a skills-based approach helps him identify upside plays late in a draft, as well as leading him to put Aaron Judge at the top of his personal rankings.

Erik Siegrist takes stock of the available talent in the American League and wonders when the next wave of top prospects could arrive, including the Rays' Junior Caminero.

Maldonado, simply put, is what he is. If you find your two-catcher team strong in average but weak on power, he is someone you can consider with your final pick or last dollar because he has hit double-digit homers in each of the past four full seasons. That is where the fantasy goodness ends because he has not seen the good side of the Mendoza Line since 2020 and it remains to be seen how much the pull-heavy hitter will miss aiming at the Crawford Boxes for homers. Maldonado plays more than his bat should because he is great at controlling the running game and blocking pitches while grading out as a poor framer. The best case scenario for Maldonado's power is that he signs with the southsiders in Chicago but your roster must have the batting average talent on it to insulate you from the damage 400+ at bats from Maldonado can do to your spot in that category.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Roster spot secure for now
According to Scott Merkin of MLB.com, White Sox manager Pedro Grifol indicated Wednesday that Maldonado isn't currently in danger of losing his roster spot.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old backstop joined Chicago on a one-year, $4 million deal during the offseason, but he has a .081/.132/.128 slash line and 37.6 percent strikeout rate through 93 plate appearances. Maldonado began the season as the primary catcher but has fallen into the backup job, with Korey Lee now seeing more reps. Maldonado hit below .200 in each of the previous three seasons with Houston but at least offered some pop with double-digit homers each year.
