Jesse Winker Hoping To Return By Tuesday
2 years agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder/designated hitter Jesse Winker (oblique) was absent from Sunday's lineup due to oblique soreness. However, the 29-year-old thinks the soreness was a result of his bronchitis, which kept him out of the lineup for five straight games. Winker plans to be back on the field by Tuesday at the latest, according to Todd Rosiak. Over nine games this season, the former Cincinnati Reds draft pick is slashing .300/.389/.400 with five runs and nine RBI, but no home runs so far. When healthy, Winker's been playing every day, despite his struggles against lefties, a good sign for fantasy owners who can receive contributions in four categories.
