Ben Rice Expected To Return On Tuesday
23 seconds agoNew York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he expects first baseman/designated hitter Ben Rice (elbow) to be back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. Rice was hit multiple times on his left elbow on Saturday and sat out the last two games as a result. The 26-year-old was just dealing with an elbow contusion, though, and he's expected back for the second game of the series in Cleveland. Fantasy managers will want to check back later to confirm he's actually back in the starting lineup, but if he is, get him back into your lineups against Guardians right-hander Tanner Bibee. Rice is off to a great start in his first full MLB season, slashing .292/.403/.600 with a 1.003 OPS, five home runs, nine RBI and two stolen bases in his first 19 games. He didn't get a hit in either of his last two games, but he did have a four-hit outing on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Rays.
