Availability
The Phillies selected the contract of SS Christian Cairo and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
Fantasy Impact
Cairo will be on the Phillies 40-man roster to open the season. He'll still open the year in Triple-A.
The Phillies reassigned INF Christian Cairo to minor league camp.
Fantasy Impact
Cairo was one of five players reassigned with Opening Day coming up this upcoming week. He will open the season in the minors after hitting .200 with one home run in spring training action.
Atlanta sent Christian Cairo back to the Guardians on Wednesday, per team updates, after he didn’t secure a roster spot following December’s Rule 5 Draft selection.
Fantasy Impact
Cairo’s .179/.294/.250 spring slash failed to earn an Atlanta roster spot, returning him to the Guardians Wednesday, likely headed to Triple-A Columbus sans 40-man status. The 23-year-old’s bid stalls. Fantasy managers in deep dynasty leagues might stash him, hoping his infield skills develop for a Guardians call-up later in 2025 if he rebounds in the minors.
