Jonah Heim Takes A Seat Saturday
2 years agoTexas Rangers catcher Jonah Heim is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Washington Nationals. It's just a normal day of rest for Heim, but make sure to remove him from all fantasy lineups. The 26-year-old switch-hitting backstop is hitting just .184 (7-for-38) with two home runs, seven RBI and nine strikeouts in 10 games over the last two weeks. Overall, though, he's been a solid fantasy catcher because of his power (nine home runs), and he's hitting a respectable .244/.308/.458 with 26 RBI, 23 runs scored and even two stolen bases in 50 games played. Meibrys Viloria is doing the catching and hitting ninth on Saturday against Nationals right-hander Josiah Gray. Viloria is a low-upside DFS catching option who is hitting .215 on the year with only one home run in 181 at-bats.
