Tyler Stephenson Not In Thursday’s Lineup
3 years agoCincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson is not in the team's lineup for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Stephenson has provided solid production for both the Reds and fantasy managers with a .280 average, a .382 on-base percentage and five home runs in 220 plate appearances this season. Tucker Barnhart is starting in his place as Cincinnati kicks off a four-game set against Milwaukee. Barnhart is batting seventh and catching Tyler Mahle. He and the rest of the Cincinnati lineup will face Brewers starting pitcher Adrian Houser. If you're looking for a last-minute streaming option behind the plate in daily fantasy or season-long formats, Barnhart is a quality option. The 30-year-old is batting .268 this season with a .352 on-base percentage and four home runs in 216 plate appearances.
