Fri Mar 113:08Luis Urias To Throw On Friday
Seattle Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said that infielder Luis Urias (shoulder) is going to start trying to throw in infield drills in camp on Friday, but he'll be limited. The hope is that Urias can be ready for Opening Day in late March. The 26-year-old is being held back in spring training due to right-shoulder inflammation, and he's still no guarantee to be ready by Opening Day. If healthy, Urias will have an opportunity to earn playing time at the hot corner in Seattle, but he hasn't proven to be fantasy relevant in mixed leagues in recent seasons. In his six years in the majors with the Padres, Brewers and Red Sox, Urias holds a .234/.333/.385 slash line with 48 homers, 180 RBI and nine steals in 445 games. He's become somewhat of a Quad-A player that just hasn't gotten over the hump at the highest level.

Wed Feb 2812:08Luis Urias Could Begin Season On Injured List
Seattle Mariners third baseman Luis Urias (shoulder) could need to open the 2024 regular season on the injured list due to right-shoulder inflammation. Urias has been throwing from around 70 feet at spring training, but it doesn't sound like he's close to making his Cactus League debut. On top of it, the 26-year-old infielder didn't play well in the Mexican winter league and showed up to camp in less-than-stellar shape. When healthy, the former top prospect of the San Diego Padres will likely be stuck in a platoon role at the hot corner in Seattle with Josh Rojas. Dylan Moore, Sam Haggerty, and Brian Anderson are also options for the Mariners at the position. Already only an option in AL-only fantasy leagues, Urias' stock is dropping even further due to his shoulder injury this spring.

Tue Feb 2016:29Luis Urias Recovering From Shoulder Inflammation
Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias (shoulder) came in a couple of weeks ago to the team's spring training facilities and was dealing with some right-shoulder inflammation before being shut down from throwing. However, tests came back good, and he was able to resume work at camp on Monday. The 26-year-old has plenty of time to get ready for Opening Day in late March, although he could be eased into Cactus League play. Once one of the San Diego Padres' top prospects, the Mexican infielder has become more of a Quad-A player, hitting just .234 with 48 home runs in six major-league seasons. Urias slashed just .194/.337/.299 with three homers, 18 RBI and 41 strikeouts in 52 games with the Brewers and Red Sox in 2023 and comes to Seattle as infield depth in 2024.

Wed Nov 22 202314:51Luis Urias Likely To Play Third Base In 2024
Seattle Mariners infielder Luis Urias will likely play third base for his new club in the 2024 season. The news comes after Wednesday's trade of third baseman Eugenio Suarez to the D-backs in exchange for right-hander Carlos Vargas and catcher Seby Zavala. Recently acquired in a trade with the Boston Red Sox, Urias has experience at third base, shortstop, and second base in his big-league career, and while his 1,319 1/3 innings at the hot corner are his most at any single position, he does have fairly even playing time at those three spots. The 26-year-old struggled to a .194 average with three homers across 177 plate appearances between the Brewers and Red Sox in 2023 but did swat 39 home runs across the 2021 and 2022 seasons and posted a healthy .789 OPS as recently as the 2021 campaign.

Fri Nov 17 202322:22Luis Urias Traded To Mariners
Boston Red Sox infielder Luis Urias has been traded to the Seattle Mariners on Friday. The Red Sox were likely going to non-tender Urias, but instead were able to get something for him. In exchange for Urias, the Red Sox will receive right-hander Isaiah Campbell. Urias was unable to get anything going during his injury-plagued 2023 season. He slashed .194/.337/.299 with three home runs and 18 RBI in 45 games. The good news is, Urias is only 26 years old and has posted good numbers in the past. The Mariners are willing to roll the dice here and might have a possible starting second baseman if Urias can turn it around.

Fri Sep 22 202316:35Red Sox Put Luis Urias On 10-Day Injured List
The Boston Red Sox placed infielder Luis Urias (calf) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Sept. 21) on Friday with a left-calf strain and recalled infielder Enmanuel Valdez from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. The move to put Urias on the injured list will effectively end his 2023 season. The 26-year-old Mexican spent this year with the Milwaukee Brewers and Red Sox, hitting a miserable .194/.337/.299 with only three home runs, six doubles, 18 RBI and 18 runs scored in 177 trips to the plate over 52 games played. In 32 games for Boston, he hit .225 (20-for-89) with two homers, 13 RBI and 13 runs scored. With Urias out of the picture, Pablo Reyes and rookie Ceddanne Rafaela will battle for extra playing time on Boston's infield for the final nine games of the season.

Wed Sep 20 202318:15Luis Urias Removed From Wednesday's Game
Boston Red Sox infielder Luis Urias (calf) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers. Urias was lifted from the contest for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning of Wednesday's contest. The team is calling the injury left calf tightness, so for now fantasy managers should consider Urias as day-to-day. The assumption is that he'll undergo additional testing to determine the severity of the injury. The Red Sox will likely use a committee approach to fill the void if Urias does miss time.

Tue Aug 1 202319:35Red Sox Make A Move For Luis Urias
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias is headed to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for right-handed pitcher Bradley Blalock. The 26-year-old infielder has been dreadful at the plate this season, but the Red Sox want to see if they can tap into his potential. Urias is slashing .145/.299/.236 with one home run and five RBI in 17 games with the Brewers this season. He has spent a majority of his time in the minors and has been optioned to Triple-A Worcester with the move to Boston. Urias was productive each of the last two seasons, so the Red Sox will try and turn him around.

Thu Jun 29 202315:11Luis Urias Optioned To Triple-A Nashville
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias has been optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday. The 26-year-old has struggled mightily at this plate this season, limping to a .145 batting average alongside one home run and a .535 OPS across 68 plate appearances on the season, a far cry from the production he's put up over the last two seasons. Urias clubbed 16 home runs with a .739 OPS across 119 games last season while he hit 23 homers alongside five stolen bases in the 2021 season. He will look to iron out his kinks in the minors while fellow infielder Bryce Turang was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Mon Jun 5 202316:24Luis Urias Activated On Monday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias (hamstring) has been activated from the 60-day injured list on Monday. The 26-year-old is making his return to the field following a two-month absence due a left hamstring strain. He didn't do much damage during his rehab assignment, but was a reliable contributor last season. Urias has enough pop in his bat to add in most mixed leagues, assuming he continues playing everyday. He'll cover third base and bat seventh versus lefty Andrew Abbott on Monday.

Mon Jun 5 202312:25Luis Urias Looks Ready To Return
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias (hamstring) went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI, a run scored, a walk and a strikeout in his latest minor-league rehab game for Triple-A Nashville on Sunday. It was reported on Sunday before his contest that Urias was expected to return from the 60-day injured list before Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 26-year-old has hit just .200 (8-for-40) with two doubles, no homers and four RBI in nine rehab games on the farm, but he should return to an everyday role at the hot corner in Milwaukee. Urias has been out for two months with a severe hamstring strain that he suffered on Opening Day, so fantasy managers might want to expect some rust initially upon his return.

Sun Jun 4 202312:50Luis Urias Expected To Return Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list on Tuesday. Urias went 0-for-4 on Opening Day before suffering a left-hamstring strain that put him on the shelf until now. The 26-year-old Mexican should play everyday for the Brewers at third base once he's back, but he hasn't exactly looked great at the plate on his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville. Urias is currently hitting .167 (6-for-36) down on the farm with a double, no home runs, one RBI and 12 strikeouts in eight games played. Milwaukee has been using a handful of options at the hot corner of late, including Owen Miller, Brian Anderson, Mike Brosseau and Abraham Toro.

Wed May 24 202321:23Luis Urias Starts Rehab Assignment Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias (hamstring) is starting his minor-league rehab assignment on Wednesday with Triple-A Nashville. Urias is starting at third base and is hitting second for the Sounds against Triple-A Iowa. The 25-year-old hasn't played since suffering a left-hamstring strain on Opening Day, so he figures to require a lengthy rehab assignment before he comes off the 60-day injured list. Still, it's possible that he will return to big-league action before the end of this month as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks in the minors. Owen Miller has seen most of the starts at the hot corner for the Brew Crew of late, with Brian Anderson also mixing in. When he's ready to return, Urias should be an everyday player for the Brewers.

Sat Apr 1 202313:19Luis Urias To Miss Six To Eight Weeks
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias (hamstring) is expected to miss six to eight weeks after suffering a hamstring injury during his final at-bat of Thursday's opening-day game against the Cubs. Manager Craig Counsell told reporters that the team expects Urias to be out closer to two months. The 25-year-old infielder was placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to March 31. Brian Anderson and Mike Brosseau will likely split duties at third while Urias is out. Brosseau is manning the hot corner on Saturday against Justin Steele and the Cubs.

Fri Mar 31 202322:09Luis Urias Reportedly Heading To Injured List
Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Luis Urias (hamstring) is likely heading to the injured list, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The 25-year-old limped off the field late in Thursday's loss to the Chicago Cubs after going without a hit in four at-bats. While it isn't official, fantasy managers should begin planning for the inevitable. As a result, Brian Anderson is expected to make the move from right field to the hot corner. At the same time, prospect Joey Wiemer is anticipated to be called up from Triple-A Nashville after he was optioned there just a few days ago. Wiemer had a quality year in the minors last season, ending with 124 hits, 81 runs, 77 RBI, 31 stolen bases, and 21 homers, so he's worth a look in deep fantasy setups.

Thu Mar 30 202318:19Luis Urias Injures Hamstring
Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Luis Urias (hamstring) limped off the field after a ground out in the ninth inning of Opening Day with a left hamstring injury. Urias started at third base and was hitting sixth for the Brewers Thursday. He was 0-for-4 on the day. More testing will come in the next couple of days to get a better understanding of the severity of the injury. Urias was a popular late-round pick with upside in drafts but this is a troubling sign to begin his season.

Thu Mar 23 202315:00Luis Urias, Rowdy Tellez Back In Brewers Lineup
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Luis Urias and first baseman Rowdy Tellez are back in the team's Cactus League lineup on Thursday against the San Diego Padres and left-hander Jay Groome after playing for Team Mexico in the World Baseball Classic. Urias is at second base and is hitting cleanup, while Tellez is at first base and is batting fifth in the order. Urias hit .278 with a home run and four RBI for Mexico. He's slated to serve as an infield regular for the Brew Crew in 2023 after playing a part-time role in 2022. The 25-year-old got off on the wrong foot last year due to a quad injury, but he finished the year hot and is looking to rebound. The 28-year-old Tellez will also be a lineup regular for Milwaukee. He hit a career-high 35 long balls in 2022 but also had a career-low .219 average.

Tue Mar 21 202300:07Luis Urias Hits Three-Run Homer Monday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias had a solid game at the plate for Team Mexico in Monday's 6-5 semifinals World Baseball Classic loss to Team Japan. Urias played second base and went 2-for-4 with a single and a three-run home run. The 25-year-old hit .278 in the WBC but has hit just 2-for-14 during the rest of the spring. Urias slashed a lackluster .239/.335/.404 with 16 home runs and 47 RBI in 2022, but he can play second, short, and third base, which should help him get routine playing time. Urias' multi-position eligibility and the lineup he hits in make him worth a look in deeper roto leagues.

Mon Aug 22 202221:22Luis Urias Not Playing Monday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias is not in his team's starting lineup on Monday. Urias will take a seat against Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Julio Urias, with Mike Brosseau taking over at third base. Urias is hitting .218 with 13 homers, 42 runs, 39 RBI, and one steal over 317 at-bats in 2022. He should be back in the lineup on Tuesday when the Brewers take on LA right-hander Tony Gonsolin.

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Luis Urias (thumb) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. He'll return to the lineup after missing a handful of games due to a right thumb issue. Urias will bat leadoff and play shortstop versus left-hander Ranger Suarez on Tuesday. He's hitting .243/.342/.398 with five home runs and 11 RBI through 28 games this season. Fantasy managers should make sure Urias is back in their lineup on Tuesday.
