Abraham Toro's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Oakland Athletics third baseman Abraham Toro is not starting for the A's on Tuesday against the hosting New York Mets at Citi Field in Queens. Darell Hernaiz will take his place at third base and will hit eighth against Mets right-hander Paul Blackburn. Toro is quickly losing playing time to Hernaiz in Oakland after struggling since coming off the injured list on July 21. Since then, Toro has gone 8-for-53 (.151) with two doubles, two RBI, five walks, seven strikeouts and one stolen base in 16 games played. On the season as a whole, the 27-year-old Canadian is slashing .242/.290/.355 with a .644 OPS, six homers, 26 RBI and four steals in 330 at-bats. He belongs on the waiver wire in mixed fantasy leagues. Hernaiz has gone 15-for-83 (.181) with a homer and seven RBI in his first 34 big-league games in 2024.

Oakland Athletics infielder Abraham Toro will head to the bench on Monday with the team facing the visiting Chicago White Sox. With Toro out, Darell Hernaiz will get the start at third base and will bat eighth in the order against White Sox left-hander Ky Bush, who is making his major-league debut. Toro will get a break for the A's after starting in each of the previous four games. The 27-year-old switch-hitting infielder has been better against lefty pitchers this year, hitting .280 (21-for-75), but with only one of his six home runs. Toro has struggled since coming off the injured list on July 21, going 7-for-37 (.189) with two doubles, two RBI, a stolen base and four strikeouts in 11 games played. He's mainly a corner-infield option in AL-only leagues in the weak A's offense. Hernaiz is hitting .171 (12-for-70) and is searching for his first homer in his first year in the big leagues in 2024.

Oakland Athletics third baseman Abraham Toro (hamstring) went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, four RBI and a run scored in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Wednesday. In addition to hitting a grand slam, Toro played all seven innings at second base in his second rehab game. Before being reinstated from the 10-day injured list, Toro is probably going to need to play at least a few games at a higher minor-league affiliate, but the 27-year-old infielder is nearing a return to the big leagues in the second half of the season. When the A's feel he's ready, the Canadian should return to regular duties at the hot corner in Oakland, giving him fantasy value at least in AL-only leagues. Before his hamstring injury, Toro was hitting .260/.303/.386 with six home runs, 24 RBI and three stolen bases in 277 at-bats near the top of the A's batting order.
