Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Torrens actually had more plate appearances than Cal Raleigh through the end of May last season, but by mid-August he was removed from their 40-man roster (he was eventually re-added to the roster before being non-tendered over the winter). The 26-year-old landed a minor-league contract with the Cubs but faces an uphill battle to win a roster spot given the presence of Tucker Barnhart and Yan Gomes. Torrens showed in 2021 that he's a capable enough hitter to help in fantasy at the weakest position, but that performance looks like a clear outlier in his career.
Torrens earned the most consistent major-league run of his career in 2021, racking up 378 plate appearances. While catcher is Torrens' defensive home, he saw the majority of his playing time as the designated hitter. While that combination is a rarity, Torrens boasts a fairly impressive power profile, highlighted by a 10.4% barrel rate and 43.2% hard-hit rate. The result was a .188 ISO, a mark that could grow if Torrens learns to lift the ball more (6.1 degree average launch angle, 30.5 FB%). The rest of his profile is unremarkable, as he struck out at a 26.2% clip and has yet to attempt a stolen base in 611 career plate appearances. Most concerning is Torrens' potential role in 2022, as he isn't likely to maintain his duties as designated hitter and the catcher depth chart is crowded ahead of him due to the presence of Tom Murphy and Cal Raleigh.
Prior to last year, Torrens had very little on his MLB resume since being plucked out of Low-A in the Rule 5 draft before ahead of the 2017 season, throwing off his development. He now has at least one somewhat respectable season under his belt, as he hit .257/.325/.371 in 25 games for the Padres and Mariners last year, good for a nearly average 96 wRC+. That sample was of course quite small, but on after a strong .300/.373/.500 line in Double-A the year prior, it seems fairly safe to say that Torrens is finally major-league ready. We'll need more than 25 games of decent numbers at the plate to conclude that he's a particularly interesting fantasy asset, though, especially as the playing-time split between him and Tom Murphy this year is not yet clear. Defense could play a role, a potential concern given that Torrens graded out quite poorly as a framer last year despite a solid reputation in the minors.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Begins rehab assignment Friday
CSeattle Mariners
July 9, 2022
Torrens, who is out with left shoulder inflammation, played in his first rehab game for Single-A Everett on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Torrens went 1-for-4 with a home run in his first game action since going on the injured list June 27. It seems likely that the 26-year-old will return to the Mariners sometime soon. Cal Raleigh is likely to still get the primary workload behind the plate but Torrens should still get a couple of starts a week and occasionally serve as the designated hitter when he's back.
