Of course, we cannot deal each lead call as an actionable fantasy event, but the Luis Matos the promotion should be of interest to someone in almost every league.
Maybe You I personally have no use for a hot hitter with power and speed, but a rival manager can probably find a place for him.
The Giants raised Matos from Sacramento A little after Mitch Haniger broke his arm on Tuesday night, then immediately dropped it in the No. 2 slot in the batting order upon his arrival. Matos has raked all season in the minor highs, slashing .350/.415/.561 on two saves with 10 homers, 25 extra hits and 15 interceptions. He was actually more dominant at Triple-A (.398/.435/.685) than he was at Double-A Richmond, which looks promising.
Matos has also walked more times than he has been knocked out this year (24 to 20), which tells you a lot about his discipline and bat-on-ball skills. In his last six games, he’s been outrageously and unreasonably good, going 12 for 25 with six homers, two walks and two interceptions.
Here’s a look at Tuesday’s bombshell:
Although Matos may not have entered 2023 with Elly De La Cruz– level hype, its production was almost unequalled. The 21-year-old has displayed a skill set across all categories at the underage level, making him a solid speculative addition to any fantasy roster. As of this writing, he is alone in over 75% of Yahoo leagues.
