Nomar Mazara

The Baltimore Orioles have officially released outfielder Nomar Mazara.

Fantasy Impact

Mazara inked a minors deal with the Orioles in December but failed to make the team out of camp after hitting just .231 without a homer across 39 spring at-bats. Mazara hit exactly 20 home runs in each of his first three big-league seasons beginning at age 21 but has just five over his last 105 games between the Tigers and Padres over the last two seasons.

Nomar Mazara has reached an agreement with the Baltimore Orioles on a Minor League deal.

Fantasy Impact

Mazara is still somehow only 27 years old, debuting in 2016. Mazara has some intrigue as a left-handed hitter who has some pop. He will start in Triple-A with hopes of earning a spot with the big league club.

Padres OF Nomar Mazara went 2-for-3 with two walks and an RBI in San Diego's 10-6 loss to Colorado Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Mazara very quietly has been incredibly consistent for the Padres since his early-June call-up. He's hitting a robust .327 with a .382 on-base percentage. The power numbers are not what you would usually expect, but he has garnered fantasy attention and is widely available.

Padres OF Nomar Mazara went 2-for-4 with two runs and an RBI in San Diego's 5-3 loss to Colorado Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Mazara is quietly hitting .316 after playing 32 games this season since getting the call up. The bottom of the Padres lineup has been mostly anemic, making run-scoring opportunities sparse. His power also has not been there yet, but his percentages are solid. Mazara is worth a stream in 12-team mixed leagues for those in need of a percentage bump while he's going good.
