Jung Hoo Lee's MRI Shows "Structural Damage"
Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) showed "structural damage" in his left shoulder. Lee will go for a second opinion from Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Thursday. The 25-year-old rookie dislocated his shoulder when he crashed into the outfield wall early in Sunday's game and was placed on the injured list on Monday. Now that he's dealing with structural damage in his shoulder with the possibility of needing to go under the knife, fantasy managers may want to prepare for him to miss extended time. Lee has left a lot to be desired over the first month and a half in the big leagues with a .262/.310/.331 slash line with two homers, eight RBI and two steals. Luis Matos has started both games in center field from San Fran since Lee was hurt and figures to see much more playing time moving forward.

Jung Hoo Lee Fills Up Stat Sheet Wednesday
Jung Hoo Lee stayed red-hot on Wednesday, going 2-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored during the team's 11-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. He opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the sixth to extend the Giants' lead. Lee is now batting .338 with a 1.042 OPS, three home runs, and 12 RBIs through 16 games this season. The 26-year-old has seen a meteoric rise in rostership across fantasy platforms, and at this point he should be rostered and started universally.

Jung Hoo Lee Homers Twice In Victory
Jung Hoo Lee showed off his power ability during Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. He smacked a 406-foot homer off left-hander Carlos Rodon in the fourth inning. Lee wasn't done, though, as he crushed another home run off Rodon in the sixth inning. He finished his day 2-for-4 with two homers and four RBI in the win over the Yankees. Lee now has three homers, 11 RBI, and three steals through April. He figures to remain in the middle of the order all season long. Fantasy managers in need of some help should consider adding Lee to their roster.

Jung Hoo Lee Smashes Huge Homer For The Giants
