Tyler Naquin

Milwaukee Brewers non-roster invitee has been informed he will not make the club's Opening Day roster.

Fantasy Impact

Naquin's career began with plenty of promise after he hit 14 homers with six steals and an .886 OPS across 116 games as a rookie in 2016. However, he hit just .229 with a .705 OPS across 105 games with the Reds and Mets last season. Nonetheless, the 31-year-old has solid pop with a career .183 isolated power and has produced a wRC+ at least 5 percent above the league average in two of the last four seasons. He has a decent shot at latching on with a new club this season.

The Milwaukee Brewers signed Tyler Naquin to a minor-league deal with an invite to camp.

Fantasy Impact

Naquin played for the Reds and Mets last season, hitting .229 at the plate with 11 home runs. He will compete for a reserve outfield spot on the Brewers roster throughout spring training.

Tyler Naquin went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs against the Braves on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Naquin now has just nine home runs on the year, so Thursday's power barrage was unexpected. He should see sporadic playing time with the Mets absent an injury but, as Thursday's effort showed, he can be a decent DFS option when he does get the start.

The Mets traded for Tyler Naquin from the Reds in exchange for minor leaguers Jose Acuna and Hector Rodriguez.

Fantasy Impact

Naquin is having a mediocre season, slashing .246/.305/.444 on the year with seven home runs and 33 RBI. He'll likely be largely a bench bat for the Mets, giving Mark Canha the occasional break and getting a start or two at DH. But this move is a net negative for his value given his downgrade in park and likely loss of playing time.

Tyler Naquin hit a solo shot off Steven Okert Thursday and had a sacrifice fly. The HR was Naquin's seventh of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Naquin still hasn't found his 2021 mojo this season and has struggled in July since being activated from the IL. In 204 plate appearances this year, he has seven HRs, 29 runs, 33 RBI, and .246 BA. Currently, he doesn't look very useful for fantasy purposes, but perhaps he's got a hot streak in him.
