4 years agoCincinnati Reds second baseman Mike Moustakas was last in the lineup last Tuesday when he sustained a left quad strain and severe bruising to the leg. He has since been placed on the IL, although Moustakas doesn’t sound concerned about the issue being a long-term ailment, already professing that he expects to be back in the lineup Sunday against Pittsburgh. Without him in the starting nine, Cincinnati has primarily leaned on Kyle Farmer and Christian Colon to hold down the keystone, although neither represents a season-long fantasy consideration. Moustakas is tagging the ball to open 2020, on pace to set a new career high with 35.7% of his contact coming on the sweet spot. He can be put back in lineups as soon as he is officially activated.--Jesse Borek
