Matt Thaiss Not In Lineup Again Tuesday
1 year agoLos Angeles Angels backstop Matt Thaiss is absent from the lineup for a second consecutive day on Tuesday, according to MLB.com. The 28-year-old is putting up solid numbers with a .269 average, three home runs, 19 runs, 19 RBI, and one steal across 50 games. However, his .620 OPS against southpaws has limited his playing time, and with lefty Clayton Kershaw on the mound, Thais will take a seat. Chad Wallach will take care of the catching duties instead and bat seventh. The 31-year-old is hitting with power like never before, going deep six times in just 32 games while batting .263. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues may want to use Wallach as a streaming option in hopes he can keep mashing.
