Rays Expected To Listen On Yandy Diaz
1 month agoThe Tampa Bay Rays are expected to listen to trade offers on first baseman Yandy Diaz leading up to next Tuesday's trade deadline. According to sources, the Houston Astros, Seattle Mariners and Pittsburgh Pirates are potential landing spots. Diaz opened the second half of the season last weekend away from the team due to a personal issue and was eventually placed on the restricted list, but he's been activated on Friday and is back at first while batting leadoff against the visiting Cincinnati Reds and left-hander Nick Lodolo. Fantasy managers will want to get the 32-year-old right-handed hitting veteran back in lineups this weekend. Diaz hasn't been quite as good as his lone All-Star campaign last year in Tampa, but he's still hitting a solid .273 (104-for-381) with eight homers and 46 RBI in 94 games played.
