2025 Projections
Starts at third base
Ornelas started at third base and went 0-for-3 in Friday's 8-2 loss to the Mariners.
ANALYSIS
Ornelas appeared in just his third game since being called up at the beginning of the month. He filled in for Josh Jung, who was shut down for a couple of days due to discomfort in the area near where he underwent wrist surgery earlier this year. The Rangers aren't yet mathematically eliminated from the postseason, but that could happen this weekend. At that point, the club may not want to risk bringing Jung back. If that were to occur, Ornelas and Ezequiel Duran would likely share the hot corner for the remainder of the regular season.

Stat Review
How does Jonathan Ornelas compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Ornelas, fresh off an addition to the 40-man roster, opened 2023 at Triple-A Round Rock in the hitter friendly Pacific Coast League. Only it wasn't too friendly for Ornelas, who ranked last in the PCL among qualified hitters with a .727 OPS, down 58 points from a promising 2022 season at Double-A Frisco. He's one of a few infield prospects that have nowhere to go at the major-league level. Either Ornelas or Justin Foscue could be used as a trade piece to acquire bullpen help and/or a designated hitter, the Rangers' most pressing needs. Ornelas spent most of his time at shortstop in 2023 but also saw time at second base and center field. Those positions in the majors, too, are locked in for the next few seasons, so working as a backup infielder might be his ticket to the majors if he remains in the organization.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Possible promotion coming?
Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News speculates Ornelas could be called up by the Rangers to provide infield depth after Josh Jung sustained a broken thumb Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Ornelas was added to the 40-man roster last November in order to protect him from the Rule 5 draft, though he's been underwhelming at Triple-A Round Rock this season with a .250/.360/.348 slash line in 88 contests. The 23-year-old is unlikely to see significant playing time for the contending Rangers if promoted, so he would offer minimal fantasy appeal.
