Jesse Winker Batting .350 During His Rehab Assignment
1 year agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Jesse Winker (neck) went 1-for-4 on Thursday with Triple-A Nashville, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, as he continues to rehab from a cervical strain that he sustained in late May. Over seven rehab games, the 29-year-old is batting .350 with three homers and just three strikeouts. There's a chance Winker will return this weekend for the team's series with the Pittsburgh Pirates, and hopefully, he can keep his hot streak going. Over just 39 games this year, he's struggled mightily at the dish, slashing .204/.315/.231 with no home runs, 11 runs, and 13 RBI. With that kind of play, Winker's dropable in shallower leagues, but with his return looming, fantasy managers in deeper formats may want to give him another chance.
