4 years agoWashington Nationals first baseman Ryan Zimmerman is still debating whether to play this season. Among several other issues, he cited the risk the novel coronavirus would pose to his mother, who has multiple sclerosis, and a three-week-old child. From a fantasy perspective, Zimmerman was already a fringe player due to his age, an 89 wRC+ last year and a crowded Nationals roster -- the universal designated hitter and a shorter season that would presumably be easier on his body wouldn't compensate. If you're drafting right now at nearly any depth, it's best to avoid him.--Nathaniel Green
