Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel has become the team’s preferred center field option against left-handed pitching down the stretch, but he was shifted to the leadoff spot for the first time since Aug. 11 for Game 1 of the wild-card series versus Atlanta and left-handed pitcher Max Fried on Wednesday. Senzel’s spot atop the lineup card garners him some significant DFS appeal, although the possibility that the Reds utilize a replacement for him at some point exists. Injuries marred Senzel’s 2020 regular-season campaign as he finished with a .604 OPS.--Jesse Borek

With Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (groin) potentially returning from the injured list soon and Lenyn Sosa sent to Triple-A Charlotte, it seems as though the newly signed Nick Senzel could be set to take over the majority of time at second base with his new team. The No. 2 overall pick by the Cincinnati Reds back in 2016 out of Tennessee was released by the Washington Nationals recently after hitting just .209/.303/.359 with a .663 OPS, seven home runs, 18 RBI and 25 runs scored in 64 games played. The 29-year-old will get another shot at regular playing time but may have to battle for starts with rookie Brooks Baldwin at the keystone. With the worst team in baseball, Senzel won't suddenly become attractive to fantasy managers in mixed leagues, but he could be worth a pickup in AL-only formats for infield depth.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Free-agent infielder/outfielder Nick Senzel signed a major-league deal with the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday. Senzel was recently released by the Washington Nationals after being designated for assignment and going unclaimed on waivers. The 29-year-old former second overall pick in 2016 out of Tennessee by the Cincinnati Reds didn't pan out as the Nationals' third baseman in the first half of the 2024 season, slashing just .209/.303/.359 with a .663 OPS, seven home runs, 18 RBI, 25 runs scored and 53 strikeouts in 235 trips to the plate in 64 games in his sixth year in the big leagues. Senzel will now get an opportunity with the worst team in baseball and could get a shot at the hot corner in the Windy City, at least until Yoan Moncada (groin) returns from the injured list. Senzel also has experience as an outfielder, though, so he could get some playing time there as well.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Washington Nationals have requested unconditional release waivers on third baseman Nick Senzel on Friday after designating him for assignment last weekend. Senzel has been a first-round bust, first with the Cincinnati Reds for five years, and now in D.C. He played in only 64 games for Washington in 2024 before being cut, hitting just .209 (43-for-206) with seven home runs, 18 RBI, 25 runs scored and 53 strikeouts in 235 plate appearances. Injuries stifled his development early in his career with Cincinnati, and he carries a career slash line of .235/.302/.368 with a .670 OPS, 40 home runs, 143 RBI and 33 stolen bases in 441 games. Another organization will probably take a flier on Senzel, but it will likely be on a minor-league deal, and he'll have to earn a trip back to the big leagues in another city this year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Washington Nationals have designated third baseman/outfielder Nick Senzel for assignment. In a corresponding move, the team recalled rookie infielder Trey Lipscomb. A former top prospect in the Cincinnati Reds system, Senzel was signed in the offseason by the Nationals. He hit .209 with seven home runs, 18 RBI, 25 runs scored, and a stolen base. While his walk rate of 11.5% was great, his hard-hit rate was in the seventh percentile. It was coupled with an average exit velocity in the third percentile, which led to his release on Saturday. Senzel should find work elsewhere if he clears waivers this coming week.--Mike Carter - RotoBaller
