Player Outlook
Isaac Paredes had a wonderful breakout season becoming a full-time threat in the Tampa Bay lineup while playing three of the four infield positions. Paredes has a simple approach in that he is up there to pull baseballs, ideally over the fence since he is not the fleetest of foot. Paredes hit all 31 of his homers to left field, and in fact has hit all 53 of his career major league homers to left field. Not only does he pull a lot of baseballs, he also hits a high volume of flyballs which limits his batting average upside despite that he is both accepting of walks and does not strike out as much as one would imagine. His 98 RBI season appeared with him hitting .295 with runners in scoring position after hitting just .175 in those same situations in 2022. RISP production is not a skill so this could evaporate as quickly as it appeared which means the variability of his potential fantasy value in 2024 is rather wide. 2022 is a reminder of his downside.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Getting breather Saturday

    Rotowire
    Paredes isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees. After going 0-for-13 with six strikeouts over his last four games, Paredes will get a chance to regroup while Patrick Wisdom covers third base, batting eighth.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Drives in three Sunday

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and three RBI in Sunday's 14-1 win over the Nationals. Paredes collected two of the team's 18 hits in the easy victory. The infielder has been struggling overall with his new team, batting just .184 with a .608 OPS across 29 games in Chicago, though he is riding a four-game hitting streak during which he's gone 5-for-12. Paredes will continue to see regular playing time as he looks to build up further momentum with the Cubs.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Goes deep in easy win

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 2-for-5 with a walk, a home run, two additional runs scored and two total RBI in Monday's 18-8 win over the Pirates. Paredes helped pile on to the rout, launching his 19th home run of the season in the eighth inning. The 25-year-old has recorded three of those long balls in 24 games for the Cubs since coming over in a late July trade, and he's batting .161 for his new team. That's not exactly what fantasy managers had in mind, but Paredes should continue to see regular playing time, and he has the talent to turn things around in a hurry.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Sitting in series finale

    Rotowire
    Paredes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins. Paredes was withheld from the lineup last Sunday versus the Blue Jays due to shoulder discomfort, but he returned to start each of Chicago's' last five games while going 3-for-22 at the plate. The Cubs haven't suggested that he's still being nagged by the shoulder, so Paredes' absence for the series finale in Miami is likely just a maintenance day.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Back in action Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Paredes (shoulder) will start at third base and bat fifth against the Tigers on Tuesday. Right shoulder discomfort caused Paredes to be scratched from Chicago's lineup ahead of Sunday's contest, though he was able to make a pinch-hit appearance. After an extra day of rest Monday, the 25-year-old infielder now appears to be fine and will look to turn things around after going 0-for-12 across his last four games.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Scratched with shoulder issue

    Rotowire
    Paredes was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Blue Jays due to right shoulder discomfort, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports. It's unclear when Paredes suffered the injury, but he struggled over the past few games and went 0-for-11 with two strikeouts. The 25-year-old will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus Detroit. Patrick Wisdom has replaced Paredes at third base for Sunday's contest.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Goes deep again Friday

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-6 win over the White Sox. Paredes teed off for his second home run in his last three games and 18th of the season. The infielder got off to a bit of a slow start after getting traded to the Cubs at the end of the July, but in those last three contests, he's gone 4-for-11 with the two long balls and seven total RBI. Paredes was having a solid season in Tampa Bay before the trade, and if he can sustain his recent level of play, a big finish could be in store with his new team.

  • Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Dealt to North Siders

    Rotowire
    The Cubs acquired Paredes from the Rays on Sunday in exchange for third baseman Christopher Morel and right-handers Hunter Bigge and Ty Johnson, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports. Tampa Bay continues to move key parts ahead of Tuesday's deadline, with Paredes joining Randy Arozarena, Zach Eflin, Jason Adam and Aaron Civale as major departures via trade. The Cubs were thought to be deadline buyers, but Paredes isn't a rental player, as he comes with three years of team control after 2024. He has a 245/.357/.435 slash line with 16 home runs and 55 RBI through 101 games this season and should take over the starting job at third base in Chicago.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Plates four in rout

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 2-for-5 with a walk, a double, four RBI and two runs during Thursday's 13-0 win over the Blue Jays. Paredes had gone hitless in six of his previous seven starts but snapped out of the cold spell with Thursday's multi-hit performance. His four RBI marked a season high, bringing his 2024 total to 55. Through 416 plate appearances, Paredes is slashing .250/.353/.444 with 16 home runs.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Homers in win

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Yankees. Paredes homered to lead off the fifth inning and then walked and scored a run in the seventh. The 25-year-old has gone hitless in eight of 14 July contests but has still managed three homers and eight RBI despite his struggles. On the year, he's batting .258 with 16 home runs, 51 RBI and 38 runs scored across 394 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Adds 15th homer

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer and a walk in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Yankees. Paredes provided the key blast in the first inning Tuesday, taking Carlos Rodon deep for a three-run shot, putting the Rays ahead 4-1 early. It's the fourth homer in 12 games for the third baseman, though he's gone just 9-for-44 (.205) in that span. Overall, Paredes is batting .267 with an .830 OPS, 15 homers, 50 RBI and 35 runs scored through 86 games this season.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Finishes single short of cycle

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 3-for-4 with a home run, a triple, a double and an additional run scored Sunday against the Nationals. Paredes entered the day with just two hits over his last 23 at-bats but broke out of it in a big way with his first three-hit game since May 21. He did all his damage off Nationals starter Patrick Corbin, going 3-for-3 against the lefty. Despite the recent slump, Paredes maintains a healthy .276/.361/.472 slash line on the season with 13 home runs, 43 RBI, 32 runs and 32 walks over 328 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Tallies 12th homer

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run Tuesday against the Mariners. Paredes went yard in the eighth inning to tally his 12th homer of the season and only his second since May 31. He's hit only .229 in that span with nine RBI and six runs scored. Despite the slow stretch, Paredes still has a .821 OPS and .358 wOBA for the season.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Not starting Saturday

    Rotowire
    Paredes is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates. Paredes will get a rest Saturday after going 1-for-5 with two strikeouts in Friday's 10-3 win over Pittsburgh. Amed Rosario will start at third base and bat fifth against Pirates right-hander Jared Jones.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Swats solo shot in victory

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win against Minnesota. Paredes supplied the only run off Twins starter Joe Ryan with his third-inning solo shot to left field. The long ball was his first of June and just his second over his past 25 contests. Paredes has slowed down in the power department after a fast start to the season, but he's still the Rays' leader with 11 home runs overall.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Getting breather Sunday

    Rotowire
    Paredes is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles. Paredes will not start for the first time since May 13 against the Red Sox. Over the first two games of the series, the 24-year-old has gone 0-for-7 with two strikeouts. Jose Caballero will shift over to third base Sunday, while Taylor Walls starts at shortstop against Orioles right-hander Grayson Rodriguez.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Smacks 10th homer

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Thursday against the Athletics. Paredes tallied his 10th homer of the season and third in May, and he's hitting .301 with 15 RBI and 10 runs scored across 24 contests on the month. Paredes remains locked into either the third or fourth spot in the Rays' order, giving him plenty of opportunities to rack up counting stats.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Belts eighth homer

    Rotowire
    Paredes went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the White Sox. The 25-year-old continues to rake. Paredes has seven multi-hit performances in the last 12 games, a stretch in which he's batting .362 (17-for-47) with a 6:4 BB:K. The surge has boosted his slash line on the season to .299/.384/.520 with eight homers and 19 RBI, and with top prospect Junior Caminero tearing it up himself at Triple-A Durham (.340/.392/.681 over his last 12 games), Paredes is doing his best to ensure he won't lose his spot in the starting lineup once the Rays call up the 20-year-old phenom.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Nursing minor injury

    Rotowire
    Rays manager Kevin Cash said Paredes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers due to his body and arm "barking a little bit," Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Cash seemed to suggest that Paredes isn't dealing with anything more than general soreness, with the skipper adding that Wednesday was an optimal time to give the third baseman a breather since he'll benefit from a two-day break with the Rays being off Thursday. Paredes, who had started each of the previous 11 games, should be back in the lineup when the Rays open their series with the Mets on Friday.

  • Rays' Isaac Paredes: Getting breather Thursday

    Rotowire
    Paredes is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels. Paredes will get his second day off of the season after starting in 18 of the Rays' first 19 contests. With Paredes on the bench Thursday, Curtis Mead will pick up a start at third base.
