Matt Duffy Available Off The Bench
6 years agoTampa Bay Rays infielder Matt Duffy (back) is feeling better after an MRI exam didn't show anything concerning, and he is available off the bench on Tuesday based on his pain tolerance. Duffy doesn't have a timetable for a return but is eyeing a potential return to the lineup on Friday. He has hit a respectable .297/.357/.370 with four home runs, 42 RBI and 10 steals in 120 games. Expect Duffy to return some time this weekend. Joey Wendle is at third base again on Tuesday and is batting fifth against Indians starter Shane Bieber. Wendle has some DFS upside on Tuesday and has been a surprise with a .293/.340/.425 slash line, seven homers, 51 RBI and 13 stolen bases in 426 at-bats.
