Toronto Blue Jays infielder
Andres Gimenez (quad) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Gimenez made an early exit on Wednesday due to right quad tightness. The assumption is he underwent an MRI and the organization is still waiting for the results. That being said, Gimenez will sit out at least one more game, so fantasy managers should check back on his status ahead of Friday's contest. In his absence,
Ernie Clement will cover second base and bat eighth versus right-hander
Jose Soriano on Thursday. Fantasy managers should consider Gimenez as day-to-day until further notice.

The Toronto Blue Jays announced that second baseman
Andres Gimenez (quadriceps) was pulled from Wednesday night's game early in Anaheim against the Los Angeles Angels with right-quadriceps tightness. Before hitting the showers early, Gimenez went 1-for-3 at the plate with a single and a run scored.
Ernie Clement shifted from third base to second base, with
Addison Barger entering the contest to play the hot corner for Toronto. The Blue Jays said that the 26-year-old Gimenez's exit was precautionary, so we're going to consider him day-to-day for now. It remains to be seen if he'll be back for Thursday's series finale against the Halos. If he's forced to miss extended time, Clement would likely play regularly at the keystone. Gimenez has gotten off to a slot start in his first year in Toronto, as he came into Wednesday's action hitting just .192 (24-for-125) with three homers, 10 RBI and nine steals.

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman
Andres Gimenez is out of the starting lineup for the first time this season on Tuesday against the division-rival Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. Gimenez got off to a fast start offensively in his first year in Toronto with three home runs and eight RBI, but he has just one hit in his last 13 at-bats to drop his early-season average to .231 (9-for-39). Expect the 26-year-old to be back in the lineup on Wednesday.
Davis Schneider will take over at the keystone on Tuesday and will hit sixth against Red Sox left-hander
Garrett Crochet. Schneider won't be a recommended DFS play, as he's facing a tough left-hander and is still searching for his first hit in 2025 after going hitless in his first 13 plate appearances over seven games with six strikeouts. He's gone hitless in three career at-bats against Crochet.

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman
Andres Gimenez went 0-for-2 with two walks, two runs, one RBI, and two steals in a 6-2 win over the Boston Red Sox on Monday. Gimenez has been productive in the early portions of the season, hitting .231 with three homers, 10 runs, eight steals, and three stolen bases in 39 at-bats. The veteran infielder has cooled in the power department after swatting three homers in his first five games this season but Gimenez's speed on the basepaths keeps him relevant in fantasy moving forward.
