2024 Fantasy Outlook
Rivera's path to any fantasy viability took a hit when Arizona traded for Eugenio Suarez during the offseason. It was one thing for Rivera to serve as a backup to an aging Evan Longoria, but Suarez does not need much time off and Rivera could find his path to 300 plate appearances severely challenged as long as he remains with Arizona this season. He can handle both infield corner positions well and being out of options all but assures he remains with a club in that type of capacity for this season. He has never quite shown enough bat to profile as an everyday player and a career .247/.304/.380 line in 740 major league plate appearances reinforces that line of thought. His in-season flexibility is a nice resource for mono leagues but mixed league fantasy managers can safely overlook him Read Past Outlooks
RANKSFrom Preseason

ADP
Crosses plate twice in loss
Rivera went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Brewers.
ANALYSIS
Getting the start at third base and batting seventh against lefty Robert Gasser, Rivera had his first multi-hit performance since May 1 and his first extra-base hit since April 28. The 27-year-old has been back in a short-side platoon role for most of May with Jake Burger healthy, and Rivera's hitting just .240 (6-for-25) on the month with two RBI and five runs.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Mashing in limited sample
Rivera is slashing .348/.383/.461 through 94 MLB plate appearances this season. The 26-year-old is following up on dominant 2023 minor-league results, having slashed .348/.378/.591 across 16 Triple-A games.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Rivera began the season with the Royals, mostly serving in a reserve capacity but also seeing regular action as an injury replacement. He posted a .246/.294/.414 line in 204 plate appearances before being sent to Triple-A on July 29. Shortly thereafter, he was traded to the Diamondbacks where he finished the season just .227/.304/.424. His season was cut short with a fractured left wrist but is expected to be ready for spring training. Rivera can play both corner infield spots, but both are occupied by established players, so Rivera may see most of his action pinch-hitting against southpaw relievers. He has some pop in the event regular playing time unfolds, but for fantasy purposes, Rivera is still relegated to NL-only duty.
