Andrelton Simmons Activated From Disabled List, Will Start on Saturday
6 years agoLos Angeles Angels shortstop Andelton Simmons will be back in Saturday's lineup after a stint on the 10-day disabled list with an ankle sprain. He is starting at shortstop and batting fifth against the Oakland Athletics. Pundits figured that Simmons would require a minor league rehab assignment before returning, but this quick recovery is a welcomed sight for fantasy owners. Simmons was having a fantastic season before his injury as he is carrying a sturdy .330/.399/.460 slash line to go along with four home runs, 34 RBI, and five stolen bases. Plug him back into your lineups as he should receive ample opportunity to pile up counting stats batting behind players such as Mike Trout and Justin Upton.
