Martin Maldonado

Martin Maldonado went hitless in three at bats on Tuesday against the Braves.

Fantasy Impact

Maldonado dealt with a bruised thumb last week but he's fine moving forward. The 33-year-old posted a .671 OPS last year and doesn't have any fantasy value - even at a position as thin as catcher.

Martin Maldonado went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 21-7 loss to the Athletics.

Fantasy Impact

Maldonado is hitting .500 (4-for-8) with two home runs, three RBI and five runs scored in his last two games. He is slashing .219/.289/.386 with 11 home runs, 25 RBI and 43 runs scored in 345 plate appearances this season.

Martin Maldonado went 1-for-4 with a two-run home in Sunday's 11-2 win over the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

Maldonado's two-run shot off Ty Buttrey was his ninth of the season. He only has fantasy value in AL only or two-catcher formats. Maldonado is slashing .210/.284/.360 with nine home runs, 21 RBI, and 35 runs scored in 89 games with the Cubs/Astros/Royals this season.

Martin Maldonado went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact

The homer was his second since joining the Astros at the trade deadline. Maldonado has gone 5-for-30 (.167) in eight games with his new team.

Martin Maldonado went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two runs scored, and a walk in Friday’s 10-2 win over the Mariners.

Fantasy Impact

Maldonado started his second consecutive game and provided the third of six Astros homers on the night. He is not expected to overtake Robinson Chirinos for the majority of starts, but provides solid depth at the catcher position. Maldonado has hit seven home runs, with 18 RBI and 29 runs scored in 80 games between the Royals, Cubs, and Astros this season.
