Injuries always come at the most inopportune time, largely because the injury bug is hungry and could care less about your fantasy team.
The bug already has bitten several solid players this month, claiming the seasons of Christian Yelich and Luis Rengifo .Byron Buxton shockingly landed on the 10-day IL this week, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. — who hit .316 with seven homers, five stolen bases and a 1.062 OPS in his first 14 games with the Yankees — has a UCL injury in his non-throwing arm .
He also had the eighth-best on-base percentage , ninth-best OPS, 17th-best WAR , 18th-most RBIs and 32nd-lowest strikeout rate . He also doesn’t get benched when Arizona faces lefties, as he has historically been stellar against southpaws — and he is hitting .379 with nine RBIs, 11 runs, seven stolen bases and a .926 OPS in 95 plate appearances versus lefties.
In 16 games before landing on the injured list with a back injury in May, Kerry Carpenter went 16-for-48 with five homers, 14 RBIs, 12 runs and a 1.211 OPS. He might get the occasional day off as he eases back into the swing of things, but there is no reason he shouldn’t be treated like the player he was drafted to be.
– In 55 games from May 27-July 28, Lane Thomas hit .282 with six homers, 30 RBIs, 36 runs, 17 stolen bases and a .833 OPS for the Nationals. In his first 14 games since being dealt to the Guardians, he was 5-for-48 with no homers or RBIs, 21 strikeouts and a .350 OPS.– White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. entered the weekend having not homered since July 24, and based on his lousy team, you’d be safe to assume nothing else positive has happened since.
