Los Angeles Angels infielder
Luis Guillorme (back) will return to the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the hosting Oakland A's. The 29-year-old missed the second-half opener on Friday after being stretched for the first-half finale on July 14 due to back tightness but will return to the keystone and hit ninth on Saturday against A's righty
Mitch Spence. Known more for his defense, Guillorme is hitting just .226 without a homer and one stolen base across 50 games on the season while his 71 wRC+ sits 29% below the league average. A career .256 hitter with only five homers and five steals in 385 career games, Guillorme continues to be kept well off the fantasy radar.

The Los Angeles Angels acquired infielder
Luis Guillorme from the Atlanta Braves on Thursday in exchange for cash considerations, according to sources. The 29-year-old had signed a one-year, $1.1 million deal with the Braves in the offseason. Guillorme only appeared in nine games for Atlanta, going 3-for-20 (.150) with three RBI in 21 plate appearances. A backup infielder with the Braves, Guillorme will now have a much better shot at playing time in Anaheim, mainly at third base with
Anthony Rendon (hamstring) out until at least late June and probably longer. Guillorme can provide infield versatility and gives the Halos a nice contact hitter from the left side, but his fantasy impact will likely be limited to AL-only leagues, depending on how much he actually plays. He's a career .258/.341/.331 hitter with only five homers, 51 RBI and four steals in seven big-league seasons.

The Atlanta Braves signed free-agent infielder
Luis Guillorme to a one-year, $1.1 million eal on Friday and also avoided salary arbitration with right-hander
Huascar Ynoa by inking him to a one-year, $825,000 deal. Guillorme, 29, is a left-handed hitter who played second base, third base and shortstop in 2023 and slashed .261/.344/.333 in 823 plate appearances over the last six seasons in Queens. The Venezuelan utility infielder is mostly useful for his defensive abilities, as he has only five home runs and 48 RBI in 334 career games played, and playing time isn't going to be easy to come by in Atlanta. Ynoa missed all of last season after having Tommy John surgery in September of 2022. The 25-year-old should be ready to go at some point in 2024, but he holds a bloated 5.22 ERA and 1.32 WHIP in 122 1/3 innings over 31 appearances (24 starts) in his four years with the Braves.

New York Mets infielder
Luis Guillorme (calf, ankle) has been placed on the injured list following an injury he suffered during Saturday's game. The 28-year-old appeared to hurt his calf or ankle while trying to field a grounder that hit off his body. The Mets haven't officially announced who they will recall in a corresponding move. The expectation is that they will make a move shortly before the second game of the doubleheader on Saturday.
