Eligibility
Jose Caballero is in the Rays lineup on Saturday against Toronto.
Fantasy Impact
Caballero is back at shortstop for Tampa Bay and hitting No. 7 in the lineup. He has 13 RBI and 17 stolen bases on the season.
Jose Caballero went 2-for-4 in the Rays' 5-3 win over the Red Sox with a double, a run scored, and two stolen bases.
Fantasy Impact
This performance showcases his ability to contribute across multiple categories, particularly with his speed on the bases. Despite a modest .258 batting average for the season, Caballero's value in fantasy formats that reward stolen bases continues to rise, as evidenced by his 17 steals. His strikeout rate remains a concern, but his knack for swiping bags and scoring runs can offset those strikeouts in the right fantasy lineup.
Jose Caballero went 1-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in the Rays' 8-2 victory over the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact
His performance also included a walk, contributing to his on-base percentage. Despite a modest batting average of .265 this season, Caballero's ability to swipe bases (14 stolen bases in 32 games) remains a bright spot for fantasy managers looking for speed. His consistent ability to get on base and create scoring opportunities, as evidenced by his .312 wOBA, should keep him relevant in fantasy lineups, particularly in categories that reward stolen bases and runs scored.
Jose Caballero went 2-for-3 in the Rays' 10-8 win over the Mets, contributing a double and scoring twice.
Fantasy Impact
His performance also included a walk, enhancing his on-base percentage. Despite a season batting average of .276, Caballero's consistent ability to reach base and score runs adds a layer of reliability for fantasy managers looking for steady middle-infield production. His moderate power and speed combination, evidenced by his season totals of two homers and nine stolen bases, offers a balanced contribution across multiple categories. However, his low walk rate suggests an aggressive approach at the plate, which could limit his on-base opportunities but hasn't significantly impacted his batting average, thanks to a solid .346 BABIP. Moving forward, Caballero should remain a viable option in deeper leagues, particularly for those in need of runs and occasional extra-base hits.
Jose Caballero went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Rays' 7-1 defeat to the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact
While the solo shot added a slight glimmer to an otherwise bleak game for Tampa Bay, Caballero's season has been fairly solid. Sporting a .284 average with modest power and speed, he's shaping up to be a useful fantasy asset in deeper leagues, especially with his ability to chip in across multiple categories.
