Kyle Bishop profiles Padres 2B Luis Urias as a waiver wire pickup and add in Week 14 of the 2019 MLB season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 14% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Luis Urias has nothing left to prove at Triple-A. The 22-year struggled in a brief taste of MLB action at the beginning of the year, and was quickly demoted. All he's done since is hit .322/.406/.616 with 17 home runs and 101 R+BI in 64 games, plus swipe seven bags in nine attempts. Meanwhile, Ian Kinsler has looked every bit of his 37 years of age, noticeably slower with both his swing and his baserunning on his way to a .671 OPS.
With the Padres hanging around the edge of the wild-card race at the season's halfway point, it seems inevitable that they will give Urias another opportunity to run with the job at second base soon. You'll want to pick him up before they do.
