Jazz Chisholm Jr. Absent On Monday
1 year agoMiami Marlins outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (oblique) is not in the team's starting lineup on Monday for the series opener against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals. It shouldn't come as a big surprise after Chisholm was forced to exit early on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves in the eighth inning due to left-oblique soreness. Before leaving, the 25-year-old went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts. It could just be a minor injury, but fantasy managers of the oft-injured Chisholm should also prepare for the worst. With the All-Star break coming up next week, the Marlins could play it safe and hold him out until the start of the second half of the season. Jonathan Davis will get the nod in center field on Monday and will hit ninth against Cardinals right-hander Miles Mikolas.
