Javier Baez Expected To Return For Game 2 Of Doubleheader
1 year agoDetroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez is set to rejoin the team and should be activated from the bereavement list for Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader against the Cleveland Guardians. Baez should be back at shortstop after going on the bereavement list last Saturday, and he'll be facing Guardians right-hander Xzavion Curry. Fantasy managers have gotten very little from the free-swinging Baez in 2023, and especially in August, as he's gone just 4-for-25 (.160) with no home runs, two RBI, 11 strikeouts and four runs scored in eight games (seven starts). The 30-year-old Puerto Rican slugger has a weak .221 average (92-for-416) and .262 on-base percentage on the year with only seven homers, 50 RBI, 50 runs scored and 10 stolen bases.
