30-Year-Old Third Baseman3B
Baltimore Orioles
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Urias' 100 games and 301 plate appearances in 2024 were his lowest since 2021. Part of the reason was an IL stint for a right ankle sprain, but he played less with the slew of young Orioles infielders taking over. Urias played primarily at third base, with short stretches as a regular. At the plate, his 115 wRC+ tied for his career best, fueled by an 18.3 percent strikeout clip, his lowest in the majors. A career high fly-ball rate helped him pop 11 homers, just the second time he's reached double-digits. Urias' quality of contact is below average, so he relies on volume. However, he's earmarked to serve in a reserve capacity, though he can play all four infield spots. Urias begins the 2025 season only eligible at third base, but he's likely to add others, putting him in play as a mixed league reserve. Read Past Outlooks

May 21, 2025
Urias is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
ANALYSIS
Though he still looks to be the Orioles' preferred option at third base while Jordan Westburg (hamstring) remains on the shelf, Urias will give way to Emmanuel Rivera at the hot corner Wednesday after starting in the first two games of the series in Milwaukee. Since being activated from the 10-day injured list a week ago, Urias has gone 3-for-17 with a double, three walks, four runs and three RBI in five games.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2021
Urias popped 16 home runs and won a Gold Glove as a semi-regular for the Orioles in 2022. He was used in a similar role for the American League East champs in 2023, but Urias' home run output was quartered and his defensive metrics also took a major hit. Where that leaves the 29-year-old heading into 2024 is uncertain, as Urias has seemingly already been passed up by some younger, more talented infielders and the organization also has more on the precipice. At his best, Urias has been an above-average hitter with an above-average glove. His fantasy appeal looks pretty limited, though, as he doesn't stand out anywhere and is facing uncertainty about his role.
Urias produced a fairly average line last year, slashing .248/.305/.414 with 16 home runs, 51 RBI, 50 runs scored and a stolen base in 445 plate appearances. He was right in line with his expected metrics, and he played well enough to earn regular run at second and third base. Urias' future with the Orioles is likely dependent on how Gunnar Henderson settles in at the major-league level. Urias is entering his age-29 season, so there's not a lot of room for growth. His ability to make hard contact (45.1 percent career hard-hit rate) is his only real standout mark, but Camden Yards' spacious left field will likely continue to see him rack up doubles at the expense of homers. He does have versatility in his favor, which should help him maintain a regular spot in the lineup.
Urias received his first extended run in the majors in 2021 and hit .279/.361/.412 with seven home runs, 38 RBI and one stolen base in 85 games. The 27-year-old doesn't provide much upside with his power or baserunning, which combined with Baltimore's poor lineup severely limits any fantasy potential. Urias should see plenty of playing time to open the season for the Orioles and will likely need to surpass last season's production to be a worthwhile fantasy asset in 2022.
After joining the Orioles in February, Urias spent the majority of the campaign at the alternate training site, though he made his major-league debut and hit his first big-league homer. Urias has a strong contact profile, regularly recording strikeout rates below 20% in the minors. Simultaneously, he struggled to provide much pop and stole only five bases on eight attempts since reaching the upper levels of the minor leagues in 2018. Urias will be nearly 27 years old when the 2021 campaign kicks off, leaving little upside left to squeeze out of his profile. His strongest opportunity to stick in the major leagues comes from his defensive versatility, as he primarily plays at second base but is capable at both shortstop and third base. Given the Orioles' current lack of depth along the infield, that could be enough for him to earn at-bats at the big-league level in 2021.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Bigger role in 2025
3BBaltimore Orioles
October 18, 2024
According to Paul Mancano of The Baltimore Banner, Urias could claim a larger role at third base in 2025 after he posted an .819 OPS during the second half of the 2024 regular season.
ANALYSIS
The third baseman saw inconsistent playing time early in the campaign and had a .602 OPS at the end of May, but he was more involved down the stretch. Urias seemed like a non-tender candidate at one point, but the departure of some infield prospects at the trade deadline and the strong second half strengthened his roster positioning heading into 2025.
