Jose Siri - Page 5 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Hits bench for second straight Siri is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Siri missed time over the weekend after he was in considerable pain due to a kidney stone, but he rejoined the lineup for Monday's 7-1 loss to Detroit, starting in center field while going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts. According to Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun, Siri still hadn't passed the kidney stone as of Monday, so the Rays could be electing to limit him out of an abundance of caution while he's still dealing with some bodily discomfort. Though he's out of the lineup for a second straight day, Siri should still be available off the bench. He entered Tuesday's 4-2 loss as a late-inning defensive replacement and struck out in his lone plate appearance.

Swipes fourth bag Friday Siri went 0-for-2 with three walks, a run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 10-7 loss to the Rockies.

Impact It was an impressive display of patience from Siri, who had just a 5.5 percent walk rate in 2023. The 28-year-old outfielder has started every game for the Rays so far in center field due to his elite defense, but he's added some fantasy value with his bat as well with a homer, four steals, two RBI, four runs and a .375 OBP. He's never stolen more than 14 bases in a big-league season, but if he keeps getting on base at an elevated rate, he'll have plenty of opportunity to shatter that mark.

Impact Siri doubled in the third inning before launching a two-run shot in the seventh. It was his first multi-hit game of the year and he's now slashing .294/.400/.529 with two extra-base hits and three steals. However, he owns an unsightly 1:7 BB:K through 20 plate appearances.

Wants to swipe 30 bags Siri's goal is to steal 30 bases in 2024, Kristie Ackert of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Siri noted that he focused on adding power to his game in 2023, and he posted a career-high 25 home runs across only 364 plate appearances. On the other hand, despite an overall increase in stolen bases across the league, Siri saw his total dip by two bags last season. He has elite speed (98th percentile on Statcast) but will need to improve on a career .273 on-base percentage to be a more consistent threat on the basepaths.
