Raimel Tapia Signs With Brewers
1 year agoFree-agent outfielder Raimel Tapia signed an undisclosed deal with the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday, according to a source. Tapia was released by the Boston Red Sox on Sunday, but he's now joined the Brewers for their game on Tuesday against the Minnesota Twins, although he is not in the starting lineup. Tapia played in 39 games for the Red Sox before getting released, and he hit .264 (23-for-87) with four doubles, a triple, a home run, 10 RBI, six stolen bases and 14 runs scored in 97 plate appearances. The 29-year-old has been much better against right-handed pitching and could be worth a look for his speed in NL-only leagues. However, fantasy managers should expect Tapia to see infrequent playing time as outfield depth in his new digs.
