2024 Fantasy Outlook
Laureano appeared poised for a breakout after he posted a .288/.340/.521 slash line during his first full MLB season in 2019, but he struggled over the past few years and was DFA'd by Oakland in early August. He was quickly claimed by Cleveland and had a .724 OPS for his new team, which was a significant improvement on the .644 OPS he had for Oakland last season. In total he played in 105 games and had nine homers, 12 steals, 35 RBI and 46 runs while striking out at a 28.2 percent clip. Laureano's decent power and speed profile make him a potential 15-15 candidate, but he averaged 388 plate appearances over the past three seasons and is hardly guaranteed to eclipse that in 2024 given his inconsistent performance and durability concerns.

Designated for assignment
Laureano was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Monday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Laureano has slashed just .143/.265/.229 with a 38.6 percent strikeout rate for Cleveland this season to earn a trip off the 40-man roster. He is sure to clear waivers given that he's making $5.15 million this season, and Laureano would also likely accept an outright assignment by the Guardians since declining one would mean forfeiting what remains of his salary.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Toronto might be landing spot
Laureano could be a fit as a trade target for the Blue Jays in their pursuit of outfield help, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Laureano's teammate in Oakland, Brent Rooker, is also listed as a possibility by Nicholson-Smith. The Blue Jays' three starting outfield spots are spoken for, but getting a right-handed hitter would allow them to pinch hit for Kevin Kiermaier and/or Daulton Varsho when late-game situations dictate a move. Laureano is under team control through 2025 but might be a non-tender candidate.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022

2020
2019
2017
Laureano got a late start to the season as he finished up his PED suspension from 2021 and then had an early exit to the season when an upper leg injury shut him down mid-September. Laureano ended up receiving a PRP injection in his right hip in early October and has committed to doing more phystical training this winter to be more durable. That's a good thing considering he has yet to hit 500 plate appearances in his big league career over the course of any one full season and is likely going to be asked to hit high in a rather anemic Oakland lineup as things look now. You should pretend 2019 neer happened from a power perspective because that baseball does not exist any longer, but a 15/15 season is certainly well within reach for him given he nearly did that last year in limited play and a poor on base percentage. 20/20 is on the extreme fringes of possible outcomes, but it too could happen if everything breaks right for someone who has had little go right for him the pas three seasons. The risks that would come with this skills profile are outweighed by the fact his cheap team has him committed to a contract and has few options to replace him so the playing time is his as long as he is healthy.
