Joey Wendle Won't Be Ready Thursday
6 years agoTampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle will not be ready for game action once he is eligible to come off of the injured list on Thursday. Manager Kevin Cash noted that he should be back shortly after that timetable. This will likely keep Yandy Diaz and Brandon Lowe in line for everyday at-bats with Daniel Robertson playing as needed. Diaz is more likely to be a significant contributor, as he's slashed .310/.394/.621 with two home runs so far. It's also important to note that Lowe is sitting Sunday against lefty Drew Pomeranz. He also sat in the Colorado series against lefty Kyle Freeland last Tuesday. Diaz can be added in all leagues, as he continues to rake. Lowe can be added in deeper leagues for teams struggling with injuries.
