2025 Fantasy Outlook
Iglesias is what the kids might call a "personality hire." He's a great clubhouse presence and his music made him a fan favorite in Queens last season. His value is not limited to all that, as he can play strong infield defense and hit for a high average, albeit an empty one. Entering his age-35 season, Iglesias may be better known for his music career at this point, but he can still do enough well on the field to complement the intangibles. Many believed it was inevitable that Iglesias would end up back with the Mets in 2025, but he signed with the Padres in March. Eligibility at second base and third base is nice but not enough to push him to mixed-league viability. Read Past Outlooks

Stuck in reserve role
Iglesias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Iglesias served as the Padres' primary second baseman in April, but he shifted back to a reserve role when Jake Cronenworth was reinstated from the injured list Friday. Iglesias is also batting just .050 (1-for-20) in May, giving San Diego less incentive to find ways to get him into the lineup elsewhere.

Stat Review
How does Jose Iglesias compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

The Angels acquired Iglesias last offseason and installed him as their everyday shortstop. He missed some time in May with a sore back, then had an IL visit for a hamstring issue. The Halos released Iglesias in early September. At the time he was slashing .259/.295/.375. Iglesias then returned to Boston, the team that drafted him in 2009. The Red Sox were shorthanded with a COVID-19 outbreak, so Iglesias took over as the regular second baseman. He stabilized the infield offensively and defensively, posting a .356/.406/.508 line down the stretch, remaining in the lineup during the club's late season playoff drive even though he wasn't eligible for the postseason. Iglesias showed enough with the bat to warrant another season as a regular in a middle infield spot. He's only eligible at shortstop in most fantasy leagues, which relegates him to mixed league reserve status, best suited for deeper formats, though the fact he signed with Colorado for 2022 could give him a slight bump thanks to Coors Field.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

No offer from Mets
Iglesias said in early May that he was "totally shocked" and "disappointed" that the Mets never made him an offer in free agency, reports Anthony Reiber of Newsday.
ANALYSIS
It was reported in February that New York had offered Iglesias a one-year contract, but it apparently wasn't a major-league deal. The utility infielder was a key piece for the Mets last season and had a .337/.381/.448 slash line in 85 regular-season games, but he's off to a slow start with the Padres in 2025 and has a .555 OPS through 101 plate appearances.
