Jordan Westburg Placed On Injured List
Jordan Westburg (hamstring) on the injured list with a hamstring injury. The team initially noted that he was "day-to-day." However, the infielder has not progressed well and will now miss at least a few weeks of action. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status while he is sidelined. Over his last six games, the 26-year-old has begun to heat up at the plate, holding a .333/.333/.500 slash line with two doubles and one triple. Prior to this surge, Westburg held a modest .176/.243/.353 line with four long balls and five RBI over his first 17 games of the campaign. Under the hood, Westburg has generated a strong 12.9 percent barrel rate with a .462 xSLG, which suggests he should continue to see positive regression when he returns. While he is sidelined, Ramon Urias will likely cover the hot corner in most games.
