Jean Segura Slumping At The Plate
Jean Segura will try and break free from a 4-for-29 slump when the team opens up a series with the Astros on Monday. Segura is hitting only .195 in the month of September after being one of the most consistent hitters in the Mariners lineup this season. He has, however, been fantastic hitting on the road this season. In 65 away games this season, Segura is slashing .337/.385/.443 with 30 runs batted in and 50 runs scored. The Astros will send to the mound left-hander Framber Valdez on Monday and Segura is hitting .318 against lefties this season. Segura may be slumping but has a favorable matchup to break loose in DFS on Monday.

Jean Segura Traded To Guardians And Released
Jean Segura and infield prospect Kahlil Watson from the Miami Marlins on Tuesday in exchange for first baseman Josh Bell, according to sources. Segura's stay in Cleveland didn't last long, though, as The Athletic's Zack Meisel reported the Guardians are releasing Segura. He's owed the rest of his salary this year, $8.5 million for next year and a $2 million buyout for 2025. The 33-year-old has declined rapidly and was hitting just .219/.277/.279 with three homers, 21 RBI, six steals and 25 runs scored in 301 at-bats with the Fish this year. Watson, on the other hand, is a 20-year-old shortstop that was ranked by MLB Pipeline as Miami's No. 11 prospect. He has plenty of tools as a middle infielder, but he has plenty of developing still to do and is hitting just .210 (43-for-205) with nine homers, 24 RBI, 14 steals and 28 runs scored in 60 games for the Florida Complex League and High-A Beloit.

Jazz Chisholm Jr., Jean Segura Come Off Injured List
Jazz Chisholm Jr. (toe) and infielder Jean Segura (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Monday and optioned infielders Garrett Hampson and Jacob Amaya to Triple-A Jacksonville in corresponding moves. The team also claimed right-hander Eli Villalobos off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates and assigned him to Double-A Pensacola. Chisholm has been out since mid-May due to turf toe that will require offseason surgery. Neither Chisholm nor Segura were producing much for fantasy managers before their injuries, but Chisholm has the much higher fantasy ceiling, as long he continues to run on the base paths. Chisholm will return to a .229/.291/.403 slash line with seven homers and 14 steals, while Segura returns to a weak .190/.259/.234 slash line with a homer and five stolen bases.

Jean Segura Doing On-Field Work
Jean Segura (hamstring) participated in on-field running on Thursday, according to MLB.com. The veteran injured his hamstring last Wednesday before going on the shelf on Saturday. Segura is expected to return in early July, with the hope that it isn't a lingering issue. It's been an abysmal first year in Miami for the 33-year-old, who was slashing .190/.259/.234 with one home run, 16 runs, 11 RBI, and five stolen bases over 60 games. If he wasn't already, fantasy managers should drop Segura everywhere.

Jean Segura Lands On The Injured List
Jean Segura (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Segura initially hurt his hamstring during Wednesday's contest against the Mariners before missing Friday's opener against the Nationals. The 33-year-old has been an unmitigated disaster for the Marlins, after signing a two-year, $17 million with Miami in the offseason. He's slashing a paltry .190/.259/.234 with one home run, 11 RBI, and five stolen bases over 205 at-bats. Perhaps the time off will do him some good. Marlins top prospect Jacob Amaya has been recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move. He's a name to keep an eye on.
