He recently returned to Triple-A Durham at the end of July after being out since late May with a Grade 2 left-quadriceps strain and has slashed .277/.331/.498 with an .828 OPS, 13 homers and 34 RBI in 53 games with the Bulls in 2024. Caminero should play regularly for the out-of-contention Rays the rest of the way at either third or shortstop, and his high-end raw power should play immediately in all fantasy leagues.
