New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres kept his hot streak going Thursday, taking Shohei Ohtani deep in the 6-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels. He went 2-for-4 with a double as well. The home run marked his fifth one in his last eight games, and Torres is slashing .281/.293/.614 in his last 15. In 47 contests overall, the 25-year-old is hitting .256 with 10 HRs, 25 RBI, 18 runs, and one stolen base. This production is coming after two seasons of a sub .730 OPS. It seems as though the Torres of 2019 is back to some degree.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of the team's doubleheader against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday. DJ LeMahieu will be handling second base duties for the game. Torres is off to a decent start to the 2022 season. Over 36 games, he's slashing .242/.285/.425 with five home runs, 19 RBI and 11 runs. We expect to see him back in the starting lineup for Game 2 of the two-game set.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against right-hander Michael Kopech and the Chicago White Sox. DJ LeMahieu will be covering the keystone for the contest. Torres has been showing some promising signs at the plate this year. His hard-hit rate is up from 35.7% last year to 52.4% this year and his average exit velocity (93.1 mph) ranks in the 95th percentile, up from 87.1 mph last year. His surface stats don't look great (.230/.269/.430 slash line, five home runs, 18 RBI), but the underlying metrics suggest better numbers could be ahead.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is absent from the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against left-hander Yusei Kikuchi and the Toronto Blue Jays. DJ LeMahieu will be covering the keystone in the game. Torres is slashing .225/.260/.423 with three home runs, 12 RBI and four runs over 22 games on the year. He's been better against lefties than righties so far. He has a .905 OPS against southpaws, compared to a .590 OPS against righties, so it's a bit surprising that he's sitting against the left-handed Kikuchi. Either way, expect to see him back in the lineup for the team's next game on Friday against the Texas Rangers.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Cal Quantrill and the Cleveland Guardians. DJ LeMahieu will be covering the keystone in the contest. Torres went just 1-for-4 in Game 1 of the series on Friday. However, he made some good contact during the game. His final two outs of the game had exit velocities of 90.1 mph and 95.2 mph, respectively, to go along with launch angles of 56 degrees and 41 degrees. The 25-year-old is slashing just .175/.227/.300 with one home run, two RBI and one run scored over 13 games this year. He's one of many Yankees off to a slow start to the year, but he'll still need to pick things up soon in order to maintain an everyday role.

New York Yankees second baseman/shortstop Gleyber Torres is absent from the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. DJ LeMahieu will be covering second base for the game. Torres is off to a slow start to the year, slashing just .161/.229/.323 over 10 games. He went a combined 0-for-13 over his last four outings. Yankees manager Aaron Boone has giving each of the team's primary hitters regular days off to begin the year, but Torres may need to start hitting soon in order to retain a regular starting role. Isiah Kiner-Falefa is the team's everyday shortstop and LeMahieu, who has hit much better than Torres thus far, could wind up as the everyday second baseman. Thus far in 2022, LeMahieu has been used throughout the infield while various players have earned days off.

New York Yankees infielder Gleyber Torres is starting at second base and hitting seventh in Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox. In the tenth inning, he sat on Opening Day but pinch-hit for Kyle Higashioka and hit a sacrifice fly to tie the game 5-5. The Yankees continue to have Isiah Kiner-Falefa handle shortstop duties for his defense, while DJ LeMahieu will alternate between second and third. Torres could find himself more on the bench than fantasy managers would like to see. Managers with daily moves can safely insert Torres into their starting lineups.

New York Yankees shortstop/second baseman Gleyber Torres is not in the team's lineup for Opening Day against the Boston Red Sox. Isiah Kiner-Falefa is starting at shortstop with DJ LeMahieu at second base and hitting fifth against Red Sox right-hander Nathan Eovaldi. Torres had a solid spring, hitting three home runs while posting a .910 OPS, but he'll need to improve on his .697 OPS from 2021 in order to earn consistent playing time this season. We'll see if the 25-year-old can crack the lineup for Game 2 on Saturday.

New York Yankees second baseman/shortstop Gleyber Torres drew some attention for his offensive display this spring. Over 12 games, Torres slashed .294/.351/.559 and hit three home runs. The 25-year-old is coming off a 2021 season that was extremely disappointing across the board. He had a .259/.331/.366 slash line with just nine home runs over 127 games. His peripheral stats were equally uninspiring as his 87.1 mph average exit velocity ranked in the bottom 15% of the league. Torres will be gaining second base eligibility in fantasy this year and that could be his saving grace as it's a much weaker position than shortstop. If he's able to build off his promising spring and find the power bat we saw in 2019 when he crushed 38 home runs, he could be a meaningful fantasy player in 2022.

New York Yankees second baseman/shortstop Gleyber Torres belted his ninth homer of the season in Thursday's win over the Blue Jays. Torres was part of a three-homer inning for the Yankees, with his blast traveling 425 feet at 106.4 MPH. The 24-year-old has disappointed fantasy managers all season with his subpar production- but has been making amends in September, as he's hit .292 with three round-trippers, nine RBI, and 14 runs scored. Torres should be considered a strong start for the remainder of the season.

New York Yankees shortstop/second baseman Gleyber Torres went 3-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's victory over the Red Sox. Torres started his day off with an RBI single, then powered a 104.1 MPH homer to give New York an 8-3 lead. He capped his day off with a 101.6 MPH single. Torres has been absolutely on fire since the switch to second base, as he has gotten a hit in every game since that point, as he's hit .388 with one home run, four RBI, five runs scored, and two stolen bases. The 24-year-old has shown much better plate discipline during this stretch. Torres is rewarding patient fantasy managers at the right time.

New York Yankees infielder Gleyber Torres will move from shortstop to second base for the remainder of the season. Torres has been a below average fielder this season, as he has made a career-worst 18 errors while posting a minus-eight figure in the Statcast metric 'Outs Above Average.' The move will make the 24-year-old the primary starter at the keystone with Gio Urshela moving to short. DJ LeMahieu will serve as the third baseman. Perhaps the defensive shift will revive Torres' bat, which has been extremely disappointing this season, as evidenced by his career-low .676 OPS in 438 plate appearances.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres is on the bench Tuesday for a matchup with the Toronto Blue Jays and left-handed starter Steven Matz. Torres is batting .253 this season, with a .325 on-base percentage, six home runs, and 12 stolen bases in 420 plate appearances. In his place, New York is starting Andrew Velazquez. Velazquez, who is batting ninth, has logged 60 plate appearances for the Yankees this season. He's hitting .220 with a .223 on-base percentage, a home run, and three stolen bases. Fantasy managers are better off looking elsewhere for streaming help at shortstop on Tuesday.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) has been activated off the injured list ahead of Friday's game against the Orioles. Torres missed about a month of action with a sprained thumb but is expected to slot back in as the team's starting shortstop. He was hit by a pitch during Thursday's rehab game but is feeling well enough to return to the big club, so it shouldn't be of concern to fantasy managers. Torres has enjoyed success in his career against Baltimore, as he has slashed .354/.433/.739 with 16 homers, 40 RBI, and 34 runs scored in 47 games. Even in a down year, Torres should always be active when taking on the Orioles.

The New York Yankees transferred shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) from Double-A Somerset to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday. He is currently on a rehab assignment due to a left thumb strain that has kept him out since August 8. However, he is nearing a return to the team and could be back in the majors later this week. Tyler Wade and Andrew Velazquez have been the team's primary shortstops lately, but both should see a big decrease in playing time upon Torres' return. Over 99 games on the year, Torres has slashed .253/.328/.351 with six home runs, 12 stolen bases, 42 RBI and 35 runs.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) is beginning a minor league rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Sunday, and if all goes well he could be activated from the injured list when the team returns from its current road trip on Friday, according to MLB.com. The 24-year-old has been sidelined since August 8 with a left thumb strain. Bronx native Andrew Velazquez and utility man Tyler Wade have held down the shortstop position in Torres' absence, though one or both of them stand to lose significant playing time when the latter returns. Torres has disappointed this season, slashing just .253/.328/.353 with six homers, 42 RBI, 35 runs scored, and 12 stolen bases. Perhaps he can find the form he was displaying before the injury, as he was batting .393 to start the month of August.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) could miss 10-20 days of action with a left thumb sprain. Torres was placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday and is slated to see a specialist, which will give the Yankees a better idea of a timetable for his return. There was some concern over Torres' thumb, so the fact that the Yankees don't believe it will sideline him for an extended period of time is definitely a bit of a relief for fantasy managers. Tyler Wade and Andrew Velazquez figure to see the majority of time at shortstop in Torres' absence, though neither carries much fantasy upside besides their ability to steal bases.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left thumb sprain. Torres appeared to jam his thumb while stealing a base during Sunday's game, though he stayed in the contest until the ninth inning. Manager Aaron Boone said after the game that there was some concern about the status of the 24-year-old shortstop, who indeed got some bad news from the MRI. Torres has been disappointing for fantasy purposes this season, but there appeared to be a glimmer of hope when the calendar turned to August, as he was batting .393 with five RBI, four runs scored, and two stolen bases through eight games. The Yankees will likely go with Tyler Wade as the primary shortstop, with recent call-up Andrew Velazquez likely mixing in as well. Wade offers little fantasy value outside of his speed on the basepaths.

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (thumb) enjoyed a strong day at the plate in Sunday's loss but appeared to injure his thumb. Torres swiped his 12th base of the season but jammed his thumb while sliding into the bag. He stayed in the game until the ninth inning, ultimately being replaced by Tyler Wade. Manager Aaron Boone said that Torres will get an MRI on his thumb- and that "there is some concern there." He hasn't exactly wowed fantasy managers with a .253/.328/.351 slash line, but he seemed to be picking things up in August, making this some tough news. Stay tuned for updates on Torres.
