George Springer Returning To The Starting Lineup Wednesday
1 year agoToronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer is back in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Dodgers and right-hander Tony Gonsolin. While Springer didn't start Tuesday's extra-innings loss, he did walk and score a run across a pair of pinch-hitting plate appearances. It's been an underwhelming season by his standards as the veteran is hitting .260 with 13 homers and a .729 OPS across 98 appearances. While he's managed to stay healthy and has provided fantasy managers with 13 stolen bases, his current OPS is well below his .840 career mark. However, with a .343 xwOBA that is superior to his .320 wOBA, perhaps managers can squeeze some extra production out of Springer over the next couple of months.
