2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gurriel played 75 games with Triple-A Gwinnett before Atlanta traded him to the Royals in late August. The 40-year-old veteran showed he still had some gas in the tank with a .292/.378/.485 line plus 11 steals for the Stripers. He wasn't as productive with Kansas, batting just .241/.338/.296 with only three extra base hits in 65 plate appearances. Gurriel will probably need to sign another minor league deal before getting one more chance with a major league team. He had a nice run after joining the Astros in 2016, but at 41 years old, Gurriel has no fantasy appeal. Read Past Outlooks

Makes roster, goes hitless
The Padres selected Gurriel's contract from Triple-A El Paso prior to Thursday's 7-4 win over Atlanta. He started at designated hitter and went 0-for-4 with a strikeout.
ANALYSIS
Gurriel attended spring training as a non-roster invitee but was able to secure his spot in the Opening Day lineup after posting an .814 OPS in Cactus League play. The right-handed-hitting Gurriel drew a start with southpaw Chris Sale on the mound, but Gurriel could cede reps at DH to the lefty-hitting Gavin Sheets when the Padres face right-handed pitching.

How does Yuli Gurriel 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.

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.

The NFBC's Postseason Hold'em contest kicks off at the start of the Division Series, and its scoring system leads to some unusual rankings.

Todd Zola provides some player rankings ahead of the playoffs, as Mookie Betts and the Dodgers take MLB's best record into the postseason.

Gurriel delivered a career-best 132 wRC+ in 2021, but he was unable to replicate that last season and had a .242/.288/.360 slash line. He had a career-high eight stolen bases, but he clubbed only eight home runs and failed to provide much production otherwise for the Astros. He won a Gold Glove in 2021, but his defense also took a dive last year with minus-nine OAA. It's poor timing for the 38-year-old first baseman, who is now on the open market. Gurriel may have a difficult time finding an everyday role in free agency, and it's unclear whether he'll seriously consider retirement if his options are limited.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Drawing interest for 2024
Gurriel has received interest from major-league teams this offseason and expects to make a decision on where to sign soon, Francys Romero of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gurriel will turn 40 in June and slashed just .245/.304/.359 last season with the Marlins, so he seems likely to have to settle for a minor-league contract for the second offseason in a row. The first baseman won a batting title and a Gold Glove in 2021 but has just a .655 OPS since the start of the 2022 campaign.
