Otto Lopez

24-Year-Old ShortstopSS
Toronto Blue Jays
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lopez made his MLB debut in 2021 with a single appearance, and he followed up by playing in eight games for the Blue Jays last season. The 24-year-old missed time early in 2022 with an oblique issue, but he played in 91 games for Triple-A Buffalo and had a .297/.378/.415 slash line with three home runs, 34 RBI and 14 stolen bases. There's no clear path to playing time with Toronto, but Lopez should have an outside chance to fill a utility role early in 2023. Read Past Outlooks

Should be available Wednesday

March 22, 2023
Lopez (groin) will be available as a reserve in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Lopez isn't guaranteed to play Wednesday, but after resuming full baseball activities earlier this week without incident, he looks like he's made a recovery from the left groin injury he picked up while recently playing for Team Canada in the World Baseball Classic. The 24-year-old is in the mix for a spot on the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster as a utility man.
