Raimel Tapia Traded To Blue Jays
Raimel Tapia and minor league infielder Adrian Pinto from the Colorado Rockies on Thursday in exchange for outfielder Randal Grichuk and cash, according to a source. Tapia's fantasy value will take a hit with the move. Although Rogers Centre isn't a bad hitter's park by any means, he's leaving an excellent hitter's paradise in Coors Field, and he'll also face much stiffer competition for playing time in Toronto. The 28-year-old has a .280/.325/.395 slash line with 19 homers, 136 RBI and 45 stolen bases in 439 games in his six seasons with the Rockies. He hit .273 with six homers, 50 RBI, a career-high 20 steals and 69 runs scored in 133 games in 2021. Unless an injury opens up everyday playing time for Tapia, he'll merely be a bench option in AL-only leagues for his speed.
