Brendan Rodgers Out After Having Root Canal

2 years agoColorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (mouth) is not in the starting lineup against the Atlanta Braves on Thursday after undergoing a root canal in the morning. Manager Bud Black said he'll try to avoid using Rodgers off the bench on Thursday, but he intends to return him to the starting lineup on Friday. Rodgers said he will hit in the batting cages in case he's needed Thursday. With Rodgers on the bench, Ryan McMahon will get the nod at the keystone and hit leadoff against Braves right-hander Spencer Strider. Ten of McMahon's 13 home runs this season have come against right-handed hurlers, and he'll be more attractive in the leadoff spot in DFS, but Strider has been excellent for Atlanta this year. In his 301 at-bats against righties in 2022, McMahon has 77 hits (18 doubles), 41 RBI, 31 runs scored and six steals.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
