Diego Cartaya - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Ends season on shelf Cartaya has been on the 7-day injured list with Double-A Tulsa since Aug. 30.

Impact There were also rumors on X that Cartaya was placed on the development list, but nonetheless, his final game of the season was Aug. 27. Cartaya hit .189 with 19 home runs and 117 strikeouts in 93 games for the Drillers in a very disappointing first season at the level. He is already on the 40-man roster and seemingly far from helping the big-league club, so the Dodgers' long-term belief in Cartaya could be tested this offseason.

Cutting strikeouts at Double-A Cartaya is hitting .228/.288/.433 with eight home runs and a 20.9 percent strikeout rate in his last 32 games for Double-A Tulsa.

Impact He is the third-youngest qualified catcher at Double-A, (older than Edgar Quero and Jeferson Quero), and his .238 BABIP on the season is easily the lowest mark of his career, so there's needed context when evaluating his surface stats. Cartaya doesn't project to hit for a high average in the majors, but he could still be a catcher-eligible player who plays enough to hit 20-plus homers per season.

MLB 26-and-under power rankings: No. 7 Los Angeles Dodgers

Optioned to minor-league camp Cartaya was optioned Monday to minor-league camp by the Dodgers.

Impact Cartaya is arguably the top prospect in the Los Angeles system, and was protected from the Rule 5 draft by being added to the 40-man roster in November. The 21-year-old is likely at least a season away from the majors and will likely begin the season with Double-A Tulsa. Once in the majors, he has the talent to be among the best fantasy catchers in the sport.
