The New York Mets announced on Monday that they transferred outfielder Jose Siri (leg) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list. The team also selected the contract of outfielder Travis Jankowski from Triple-A Syracuse after Sunday's game. Siri is dealing with a fractured left tibia and remains shut down from baseball activities, meaning he isn't particularly close to returning to the big-league roster. He won't be back before the mid-July All-Star break, and it's possible that his absence stretches into August. The 29-year-old Dominican outfielder had just one hit in 20 at-bats with an RBI, two steals and five runs scored before his injury. When Siri does return to the Mets, he's most likely to serve as a backup option and late-game defensive replacement in center field. Siri will be a bench option in NL-only leagues when he's fully healed.

The Athletic's Tim Britton writes that New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (leg) suffered a setback, with the reimaging of his fractured tibia showing that it hasn't healed as much as the team had hoped. Siri has backed off his running and baseball activities and will be re-evaluated in around two weeks. President of baseball operations David Stearns said Siri is still "a ways away." The 29-year-old was originally given an eight- to 12-week timetable for a return after he broke his leg on April 12 against the Athletics. Now that he's had a setback, he is not going to be ready to rejoin the big-league roster until after the All-Star break and will still need to go on a minor-league rehab assignment. Siri's absence has led to more playing time for Tyrone Taylor in center field, but he's hit just .229/.295/.324 with a homer, 12 RBI, 18 runs scored and eight steals in 188 at-bats.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (leg) still hasn't gotten to 100 percent in his running progression, according to The Athletic's Tim Britton. Manager Carlos Mendoza said that Siri wasn't all that close to returning last week. Siri continues to rehab from a fractured left tibia that he suffered on April 12. Although he's doing some running and was able to take batting practice last week, the 29-year-old's return from the injured list remains up in the air. When he does return to the big-league roster, he'll be in a part-time role in center field, at best, with Tyrone Taylor. The Dominican outfielder is more of a glove-first outfielder and had gone just 1-for-20 with an RBI and two stolen bases in his first 10 games for the Mets this year before getting injured.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (leg) will face left-hander Sean Manaea (oblique) during a live batting practice session on Thursday, according to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. Siri is recovering from a fractured left tibia that has kept him out since April 12. He has more boxes to check off before being cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment, though, as he's currently limited to running in a straight line. It's good news that the 29-year-old is set to face live pitching, but his last hurdle will probably be to run the bases at full speed. Barring a setback with his leg, Siri could return to the Mets' big-league roster around the middle of June. Before his injury, Siri had gone only just 1-for-20 with an RBI, five runs and two stolen bases while losing playing time in center field to Tyrone Taylor. Siri won't be guaranteed anything more than a bench role in New York upon his return.

Tim Britton of The Athletic reports that New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (leg) is progressing more quickly than expected from the broken bone he suffered earlier this season. Siri exited a game in early April when he fouled a ball off his shin. Initial x-rays came back negative, but after further testing, it was revealed he had fractured his tibia. The 29-year-old's early diagnosis had him back in eight to ten weeks from the time of the injury, but it looks like he has a chance to supersede that timetable. While there's no set date for him to begin a rehab assignment, it's undoubtedly excellent news. Teammate Tyrone Taylor has underwhelmed at the dish in his stead with a .234 batting average, but his xBA indicates he's underperforming (.266). Siri was able to do some light jogging in his return to the field.

New York Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said that outfielder Jose Siri's (leg) absence should be around eight to 10 weeks from the time of his injury, which makes it possible that he could return sometime in June. It's a more optimistic timeline that what The Athletic's Tim Britton had based on other players who fractured their tibias and typically required four to five months to return. With the 29-year-old sideline, Tyrone Taylor has been a regular in center field for the Mets but hasn't really taken advantage of the playing time, hitting just .178 (13-for-73) with no homers, three RBI, one steal and seven runs scored. Siri had been even worse to open up his first year in Queens with just one hit in 20 at-bats before fracturing his left tibia. When the Dominican outfielder returns in June, he's going to need to hit a lot better to steal playing time away from Taylor.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (leg) will miss extended time after tests on Monday showed he is dealing with a fractured left tibia, according to the New York Post's Mike Puma. Siri underwent an MRI exam and a CT scan on his shin after initial X-rays came back negative following a foul ball off his leg on Saturday. He has been unable to put weight on his leg and has been on crutches since. Although Siri doesn't think it's a serious fracture, he hasn't received a timetable for recovery. Tyrone Taylor had been splitting time in center field with Siri, so he stands to see the bulk of playing time now, although Luisangel Acuna could be a possibility in center. Siri has struggled offensively for most of his big-league career and was hitting just .050 in 24 plate appearances in his first season with the Mets before his injury. Taylor's stock in NL-only leagues is on the rise.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri (shin) was removed early during Saturday's game against the Athletics. Siri was carted off the field after fouling a ball off his left shin in the second inning. He underwent testing, which didn't appear to reveal anything too serious. That being said, Siri should be considered as day-to-day for now. The hope is that Siri can avoid a trip to the injured list, but the Mets should give another update on his status soon. Tyrone Taylor took over in center field on Saturday and figures to see more playing time if Siri is forced to miss some time.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri is starting again in center field and is batting ninth on Tuesday against the division-rival Miami Marlins and right-hander Sandy Alcantara at loanDepot Park. Siri has made the last three starts in center for the Mets after Tyrone Taylor opened the first two games of the season as the team's center fielder. In his first two games for the Mets early on, Siri has a double, RBI, stolen base, one walk and three strikeouts in seven plate appearances. Taylor also has only one hit with two strikeouts in nine plate appearances in his three games for the Mets. Expect the Mets to continue to mix and match in center field with both Siri and Taylor, limiting the fantasy appeal of both players to mainly NL-only leagues. Because of Siri's high whiff and strikeout rates, Taylor will probably be the safer fantasy bet offensively.

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri has gone 3-for-10 with three long balls during his first taste of spring training with the Mets. He has tallied seven RBI and held a 3:3 BB:K. He has also swiped one bag. Earlier in the offseason, the Mets acquired Siri from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for Eric Orze. He then signed a one-year, $2.4 million contract to avoid arbitration. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his performance during spring training, as he could eventually claim the starting center field job over Tyrone Taylor. Last season, Siri went deep 18 times and stole 14 bags with a .187/.255/.366 slash line. He generated a strong 14.7 percent barrel rate but struck out at a hefty 37.9 percent rate. Taylor held a .248/.299/.401 line. If Siri were to win the job, he could have value in deeper category formats given his power and speed upside.

The New York Mets acquired outfielder Jose Siri from the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday in exchange for pitcher Eric Orze, according to a league source. Siri could see a considerable amount of playing time next year for the Mets with Harrison Bader potentially leaving in free agency. However, the 29-year-old Dominican is going to need to pick it up offensively after hitting just .187/.255/.366 with a weak .620 OPS, 18 home runs, 47 RBI, a career-high-tying 14 stolen bases and 50 runs scored in 130 games played (448 plate appearances). Siri struck out 37.9 percent of the time. His glove is probably his most attractive attribute, but he can also provide some modest speed in NL-only leagues. Orze is a 27-year-old reliever who had a 2.92 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and three saves in 61 2/3 innings for Triple-A Syracuse in 2024 before making his major-league debut (1 2/3 frames).

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri and infielder Taylor Walls will both start Thursday's game against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field on the bench. Jonny DeLuca will start in center field and bat eighth for the Rays, with Jose Caballero starting at shortstop and hitting sixth against Guardians right-hander Gavin Williams. DeLuca is hitless in two career at-bats against Williams, while Caballero is hitless in his only at-bat against Williams. Siri could see more time on the bench moving forward if he can't break out of his recent slump soon. The 29-year-old Dominican is hitting .184 (69-for-374) on the year and is 1-for-24 (.042) with two walks and 11 K's in eight games in September. Walls has played in only 72 games this year due to injuries and is hitting a similarly weak .179/.287/.242 with a homer, 13 RBI and 14 stolen bases.

Tampa Bay Rays third baseman/outfielder Christopher Morel, second baseman Brandon Lowe and outfielder Jose Siri are all heading to the bench on Friday versus the division-rival Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Dean Kremer at Camden Yards. Dylan Carlson is starting in left field and batting cleanup, Jose Caballero is at second base and batting seventh, and Jonny DeLuca is in center field and is in the six-hole against Kremer, who is making his first start off the injured list. Morel has struggled in his short time with Tampa since being acquired from the Cubs at the trade deadline, hitting .191 (22-for-115) with three homers, five RBI and 42 strikeouts in 31 games. Carlson has hit just .208 (16-for-77) in 25 games since joining the Rays at the trade deadline, but all three of his homers have come in Tampa. He'll be a deep DFS sleeper in the cleanup spot for the Rays on Friday.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielders Jose Siri and Jonny DeLuca are out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum. Rookie Kameron Misner will play center field and hit eighth, while Dylan Carlson will draw into the lineup in left field and bat third against A's right-hander Osvaldo Bido. Siri will get a day of rest after going deep in each of his last two games. The 29-year-old Dominican is up to 16 home runs in his second full season in Tampa but is batting a dreadful .199/.270/.386 with a .656 OPS, 41 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 136 strikeouts in 106 games played. Carlson was struggling with injuries with the Cardinals before being acquired by Tampa at the trade deadline. The 25-year-old switch-hitter has only three home runs and 20 RBI on the year in 166 at-bats. Misner is still searching for his first big-league hit after fanning eight times in his first 11 trips to the plate.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri homered in his second straight game in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Athletics, belting a 423-foot shot for his 16th home run of the season in a 2-for-4 day at the plate. Unfortunately, Siri's above-average chase rate of 32.9% and well-below-average 62.2% contact rate leads to a 36.4% K% and bouts of ineffectiveness, so this two-game home run streak comes on the heels of an 0-for-19 stretch for the 29-year-old. He now has a .199-16-41-42-12 line on the season with a .285 wOBA and 88 wRC+, but despite contributing somewhat across categories, the Dominican is hard to rely on for fantasy and will likely crush your batting average if you do.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri will take a seat again on Saturday afternoon as the Rays continue a three-game set against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This is the third time in the past four games that the 29-year-old has been kept out of the starting nine. Since the start of August, Siri has carried a .188/.257/.219 line with no home runs and just two stolen bases, As a result, Jonny DeLuca will get the starting nod at center field this afternoon and will bat in the seven-hole. Overall, Siri has showcased his upside for power and speed but has never been able to show it on a consistent basis. While DeLuca holds an underwhelming .171 AVG this month, he has begun to be a regular in the Tampa starting nine. He is best to fade this afternoon in DFS as he will face Arizona ace, Zac Gallen.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri bat-dropped and admired two solo home runs and pitched in a walk Friday night in a 3-1 win over the Washington Nationals. The pair of home runs puts Siri at 11 on the season to go along with 29 RBI. In his last four games, Siri has raised his batting average from .206 to .219. Still, due to his lack of consistency in the batting average department and his low OBP skills, he's provided no stolen bases despite being capable of stealing many bases with his athleticism. He remains a deep league injury replacement at best unless his hot streak continues over a longer period.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri went 2-for-3 with a homer, a walk, two runs, and an RBI in a 6-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Siri hit a solo shot off Baltimore starter Cole Irvin in the second inning, a blast that traveled 400 feet and had an exit velocity of 105.1 MPH. The 28-year-old Siri is now hitting just .197 with six homers, 21 runs, 22 RBI, and seven steals across 152 at-bats in 2024. Despite his overall poor numbers, Siri has been swinging a hot bat of late, hitting .292 with three homers over his past seven games. Siri will look to stay hot as his team's weekend series against the O's continues on Saturday.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri is having a series to remember against the Oakland Athletics. The 28-year-old was the hero in Wednesday's win and he brought more theatrics to the park on Thursday. Siri was 2-for-5 with two solo home runs, including a game-tying shot in the ninth inning off of Mason Miller. While the spike in production is nice, Siri is slashing an unsightly .188/.276/.338 this season with a 12:55 BB:K. He does have five home runs and seven steals across 45 games, but he is on base too infrequently to really take advantage of his speed. Siri is probably best left on the waiver wire in the majority of leagues.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri played the role of hero in Wednesday's victory over the visiting Oakland Athletics, ripping a single to left to walk it off in the bottom of the ninth inning. It was a banner evening out of Siri, who also robbed a home run from A's second baseman Zack Gelof in the top of the ninth before delivering the game-winning knock for the Rays. The speedy 28-year-old center fielder has taken a step back following his breakout 2023 campaign, slashing a paltry .180/.272/.289 with three long balls, 15 RBI, 16 runs scored, and seven stolen bases over 128 at-bats (44 games) overall this season. Consistently batting ninth in Tampa Bay's lineup in a platoon for at-bats, Siri isn't worth rostering outside of deep AL-only fantasy leagues at the moment.
