Eligibility
Jorge Mateo went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Orioles' 2-1 win over the Reds.
Fantasy Impact
His solo shot contributed crucially to the narrow victory, showcasing his ability to impact games with power. Despite a modest .265 average and .353 wOBA on the season, Mateo's performance today hints at potential value in fantasy lineups, particularly in formats that reward power and speed. While his strikeout rate remains a concern, his blend of extra-base hits and stolen bases can provide a useful mix for fantasy managers looking for middle infield production.
Jorge Mateo went 1-for-2 with a home run and two RBI in the Orioles' 7-2 victory over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
His performance included a hit by pitch and he scored once. This game improved his season totals to a .268 average with one home run and three RBI. While his strikeout rate remains high at 27.7%, his ability to rack up steals keeps him on the radar for fantasy managers. His consistent playing time and position in a potentially productive Orioles lineup could make him a valuable asset, especially in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against favorable matchups.
Jorge Mateo went 0-for-3 but scored a run and stole two bases in the Orioles' 4-2 win over the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
Despite not registering a hit, Mateo's ability to get on base via a walk and subsequently utilize his speed to swipe two bags and score a run played a crucial role in the Orioles' victory. His performance this season, marked by a .269 average and now three stolen bases, underscores his value primarily in the speed categories for fantasy managers.
Jorge Mateo is in the starting lineup for the Orioles Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Mateo will spell Cedric Mullins against left-hander Cole Ragans. He will patrol center field and bat ninth.
Orioles infielder Jorge Mateo is not in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the rival Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Mateo went 1-for-3 with a double in Sunday's series finale with the Pirates but will take a seat with a righty in Brayan Bello on the mound Tuesday. He is hitting .308 through his first 14 trips to the plate and has also stolen a base after swiping 32 last season. That total should come down with less playing time in 2024.
