2 years agoHouston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (illness) was scratched from the starting lineup on Thursday against the Cleveland Guardians, according to the team. Aledmys Diaz will get the nod in left field and will bat fifth in the batting order against Guardians right-hander Zach Plesac. Fantasy managers should consider Tucker day-to-day and remove him from their starting lineups. Diaz isnt a bad low-cost DFS play in the matchup against Cleveland. He's hitting .349 (15-for-43) with three home runs, five RBI and eight runs scored in 12 games over the last two weeks. Overall, Diaz is hitting .256/.311/.422 with nine home runs, 26 RBI, 28 runs scored and one stolen base in 69 games played.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
