Luis Vazquez

25-Year-Old ShortstopSS
Chicago Cubs
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Vazquez made his MLB debut late in the 2024 season. He appeared in 11 contests for the Cubs and tallied just one hit in 12 at-bats. There's not much that can be gleaned from such a small sample, and the 25-year-old was more productive in a longer stretch of games with Triple-A Omaha. At that level, Vazquez slashed .263/.347/.432 with eight home runs, 24 RBI and 33 runs scored across 64 contests. The shortstop didn't run much, and that's never really been a part of his game during his time in the minors. Vazquez looks like organizational depth heading into 2025 with Dansby Swanson and Nico Hoerner entrenched up the middle in Chicago. Vazquez may get a call up at some point, but he's not really on the radar for fantasy purposes. Read Past Outlooks

Picking up rare start
SSChicago Cubs
September 23, 2024
Vazquez will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Phillies.
ANALYSIS
With Dansby Swanson resting in the series opener, Vazquez will pick up his second start in three games but just his second overall since being recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Aug. 23. Vazquez has logged just eight plate appearances between two stints with the Cubs on the season and is still looking for his first MLB hit.
