Joey Wendle Launches 11th Home Run In Monday’s Win
3 years agoTampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during Monday's 6-4 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. He blasted a solo shot off Blue Jays reliever Ryan Borucki in the eighth inning to increase the Rays' lead 6-4. It was his 11th long ball of the season. The 31-year-old continues to see everyday at-bats while Wander Franco (hamstring) is sidelined. Franco could return from the 10-day injured list on Friday, sending Wendle back into a utility role. Wendle is slashing .271/.324/.434 with 11 home runs, 52 RBI, 69 runs scored, and seven stolen bases over 127 games in 2021. Fantasy managers can use Wendle as a streamer until Franco is activated from the injured list.
