Ryan Mountcastle Remains Out On Saturday
4 months agoBaltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (wrist) is out of Saturday's game due to a wrist injury. The 27-year-old was also kept out of yesterday's lineup. As a result, Ryan O'Hearn will cover first base and bat in the eight-hole. Even though Mountcastle is set to miss his second consecutive game, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day entering Sunday. Before the injury, the infielder was in a bit of a slump, with a .229 AVG in his previous 12 games. Overall, Mountcastle carries a solid .265/.305/.425 line with 13 long balls this summer. O'Hearn has been riding a strong .265 AVG since the start of the month but is best to leave out of your DFS lineup as he will face Houston southpaw Framber Valdez who has held a 1.27 ERA and a 0.56 WHIP in his past three outings.
