Jonathan Villar Set For Rehab Assignment This Week
3 years agoNew York Mets infielder Jonathan Villar (calf) is expected to report to Triple-A Syracuse for a rehab assignment sometime this week. He was placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday with a strained right calf. The 30-year-old is slashing .246/.333/.410 with six home runs, 15 RBI, 29 runs scored, and eight stolen bases across 61 games in 2021. Mets' third baseman JD Davis is also scheduled for a rehab assignment this week, which could hinder Villar's playing time once both players are activated from the injured list. Fantasy managers in rotisserie league formats should continue to roster Villar due to his elite speed and ability to rack up stolen bases.
