Arizona receives cash in return. Ur\u00edas is on a minor league deal and will head to Triple-A Buffalo for now.<\/p>\n<p>Ur\u00edas signed that minor league pact with Arizona in the middle of March. He didn\u2019t appear with the big league club, instead spending most of the season at Triple-A aside from a handful of plate appearances in the Arizona Complex League. In 117 PA at Triple-A, Ur\u00edas was batting .361\/.393\/.546 with a 123 wRC+. That\u2019s a pretty fortunate outcome, as evidenced by Ur\u00edas\u2019 unsustainably high .367 average on balls in play. He\u2019s also walking only 6.0% of the time, so Ur\u00edas\u2019 overall output could regress if his luck on contact starts to even out.<\/p>\n<p>More to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By AJ Eustace | at June 20, 2026 5:44pm CDT The Blue Jays have acquired infielder Luis Ur\u00edas&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":750382,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,268309,462,82],"class_list":["post-750381","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-luis-urias","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750381","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=750381"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750381\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/750382"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=750381"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=750381"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=750381"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
