Jorge Alfaro Out With Sore Knee Sunday
6 years agoMiami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro is out of the starting lineup on Sunday as a precaution with a sore right knee. It's been an issue he's dealt with since spring training, but he slid awkwardly on Saturday and was replaced as a precaution. Barring a setback, he should be good to return on Monday. Chad Wallach will start behind the dish and hit seventh on Sunday against Phillies starter Vince Velasquez. Alfaro is off to a good start with his new team, hitting .316 (12-for-38) with three home runs and six RBI. His supporting cast won't help him all that much, but the 25-year-old should still be an option in single-catcher leagues this year. Wallach should be avoided in DFS on Sunday.
