Fantasy Impact
Ríos, a non-roster invitee for the second spring running, couldn’t snag an Opening Day bullpen spot—after MLB stints from 2017-23, he spent 2024 at Triple-A Syracuse with a 3.30 ERA, 1.57 WHIP, and 30:22 K:BB over 30 innings. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can look elsewhere; his relief role stays in the minors for now.
