2023 Fantasy Outlook
Valdez was acquired by the Red Sox in the trade that sent Christian Vazquez to the Astros, and the young infielder was added to the 40-man roster in November. The 24-year-old had a .731 OPS at Triple-A Worcester after the trade, but he had a strong campaign overall with a .296/.376/.542 slash line between Double-A and Triple-A. Valdez is a strong candidate to make his MLB debut in 2023, especially if Boston doesn't make a significant addition in the middle infield following the departure of Xander Bogaerts in free agency.

On bench versus southpaw
Valdez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
ANALYSIS
The lefty-hitting rookie will retreat to the bench for the series finale while the Rays bring a tough southpaw in Shane McClanahan to the hill. Christian Arroyo (hamstring), who was reinstated from the injured list earlier Monday, will step in for Valdez as the Red Sox's starting second baseman for this one.
