Carlos Santana Struggles in Guardians' Loss to Padres

Carlos Santana went 0-for-4 in loss to the Padres with one strikeout.

Fantasy Impact

This performance continues a troubling trend for Santana, who is hitting just .200 with a low wOBA of .203 through the first five games of the season. His lack of production and inability to reach base could limit his fantasy value, especially if he doesn't start showing signs of improvement soon. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his performance, as he may be a candidate for a bench spot if he can't turn things around.

Carlos Santana expected to open season as Guardians' everyday first baseman

Carlos Santana is set to begin the 2025 season as the Guardians’ primary first baseman, according to Anthony Castrovince of MLB.com. With Josh Naylor departing, David Fry (elbow) limited to DH duties, and top prospect Kyle Manzardo still developing, Santana is expected to handle everyday reps at first base. The veteran signed a one-year, $12 million deal this offseason, marking his third stint with Cleveland.

Fantasy Impact

Santana remains a viable option in deeper fantasy formats, especially with his strong splits against left-handed pitching (.286/.356/.578 in 2024). He hit 23 home runs last season while slashing .238/.328/.420, offering moderate power and on-base skills. While Manzardo could eventually push for playing time, Santana should see steady at-bats to open the year, making him a useful late-round depth piece in fantasy leagues.

Carlos Santana's sole hit drives in two, Twins fall

Carlos Santana went 1-for-4 with two RBI in the Twins' 7-2 loss to the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the team's struggles, Santana managed to contribute with a hit that drove in a pair of runs, though it wasn't enough to spark a rally. His performance this season has been underwhelming with a .234 batting average and a modest power display. Santana's ability to drive in runs remains intact, as evidenced by his 70 RBI, but his overall fantasy value is limited by his lack of consistent hitting and on-base skills. Owners should consider Santana's role as more of a situational player rather than a regular starter in fantasy lineups.

Carlos Santana Clutches Up in Twins' Victory

Carlos Santana went 1-for-4 with a double and three RBI in the Twins' 8-3 win over the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

While the veteran first baseman's batting average remains a modest .234 this season, his knack for driving in runs proved valuable in Wednesday's matchup. Santana's 68 RBI are commendable, especially considering his overall hit production. His power numbers have slightly declined, but he still contributes significantly in RBI situations. Fantasy managers should view Santana as a situational play, particularly useful in matchups where RBI opportunities are likely, despite his lower batting average and on-base percentages.
