Fantasy Impact

Tigers outfielder James Outman went 2-for-2 with an RBI, a run scored, and a stolen base in a 4-1 win over the White Sox on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Outman entered the game in the fifth inning, and made a significant impact on the contest. He notched an RBI single and scored in the sixth before collecting a single and a stolen base in the eighth. In a smal sample, Outman has been outstanding with his new club, as he's hitting .333 with an .879 OPS, one homer, and a stolen base across just 12 plate appearances since the Tigers claimed him off of waivers from the Twins.
The Tigers have added outfielder James Outman to the active roster on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
The Tigers claimed outman off waivers from the division-rival Twins on Thursday, and he will be available to make his Tigers debut on Friday. The Tigers have received little defensive production from their outfield this season, especially in center field with Parker Meadows and Javier Baez sidelined with injuries. After bursting on the scene with the Dodgers in 2022 and 2023, Outman has struggled badly at the plate in the big leagues, most recently hitting .156 without a homer alongside four steals in 70 trips to the plate for the Twins this season.

Fantasy Impact

Fantasy Impact
Outman loses his spot on the Twins 40-man roster. It is possible he clears waivers given his struggles.
