Luis Matos's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Matos turned in a solid game in his team's 4-3 win over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. Matos went 2-for-3 with a solo homer to help propel his team to victory. The 22-year-old's homer in the fifth inning broke a 3-3 tie and wound up being the difference in the ballgame for the Giants. Matos is hitting .253 with three homers, 10 runs, and 21 RBI across 99 at-bats in 2024. He has been swinging a hot bat of late, hitting .381 over his past seven contests. Matos is worth a look in NL-only formats while he's hot at the plate.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Matos is being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move that put outfielder Mike Yastrzemski (oblique) on the injured list. Matos had a brief stint in the majors early this season and held a .224/.247/.329 slash line with two home runs, 20 RBI, and a 3:10 BB:K ratio in 21 games. In 44 games at Triple-A this season, Matos posted a solid .250/.324/.467 line with 15 doubles, eight long balls, 31 RBI, and five swiped bags. Since June 11, in the minors, Matos has been riding a stellar .375/.419/.925 line with five home runs, which resulted in his promotion. The 22-year-old outfielder is worth a look in deeper leagues as he should receive plenty of opportunities as Yastrzemski remains sidelined.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Matos is starting in center field and batting third on Tuesday in Pittsburgh against the Pirates and veteran left-hander Martin Perez. It's the first time this year that Matos has hit up near the top of the batting order, but he's deserved the move. The 22-year-old Venezuelan outfielder has hit .333 (10-for-30) with two home runs and 17 RBI in just eight games in his second year in the big leagues. Matos is unlikely to keep that high of a batting average through the rest of the season, but he's worth a pickup in fantasy leagues for outfield depth now that rookie Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) is out for the rest of the year. Matos made his big-league debut in 2023 and hit .250/.319/.342 with two homers, 14 RBI, three steals and 24 runs scored in 76 games. It's a good matchup against the soft-tossing Perez on Tuesday for Matos.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Matos went 3-for-5 with a home run and six RBI in Saturday's 14-4 victory over the Colorado Rockies. After driving in a career-high five runs on Friday, Matos topped that on Saturday by collecting six RBI against the Rockies. The 22-year-old blasted a three-run shot off Ty Blach in the first inning to put the Giants on the scoreboard. He hit an RBI double in the third inning and capped off his six-RBI day with a two-run single in the eighth frame. Matos has been red hot and driven in 16 runs over his last five games. Fantasy managers should add Matos off the waiver wire and use him as a streamer while he continues to swing a hot bat. Matos will look to keep things rolling in the series finale on Sunday against the Rockies.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Luis Matos has officially been recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday. Michael Conforto (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list as a corresponding move. It is unclear whether Matos will receive everyday at-bats or not, but he will definitely be in the outfield mix for the Giants. The 22-year-old has scuffled at the plate to start his minor-league season as he is slashing .218/.308/.355 with three homers, 17 RBI and three stolen bases across 31 games. He is worth a speculative add in the deepest of leagues, but most managers should probably take a wait-and-see approach with Matos instead.
