Joey Wendle Not In Lineup For Wednesday's Game
3 years agoTampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle will take a seat on the bench for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays, according to MLB.com. Wendle has put up decent offensive numbers this season, slashing .274/.324./436 with 10 HRs and seven stolen bases over 122 games. He's a fine player to roster in many leagues, not hurting fantasy managers in any specific category. However, Wendle has batted just .198 off of left-handers this season, so it wouldn't be a good matchup with Robbie Ray on the bump. Taylor Walls is in the lineup playing shortstop and batting eighth. Walls has almost no fantasy value, as he owns a .609 OPS with one home run and four steals across 48 games. He should be left on the wire in favor of better infield options.
