Ryan Zimmerman Resting on Wednesday
7 years agoWashington Nationals first baseman Ryan Zimmerman (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Matt Adams will play first base and bat sixth versus righty Mike Foltynewicz. Zimmerman went 6-for-8 during Tuesday's doubleheader against the Braves. He's just getting a day off to rest after playing two games in one day. Adams does hit right-handed pitching fairly well, but Foltynewicz has been solid this season. Adams might not be the best bet in DFS contests on Wednesday.

Ryan Zimmerman Intends To Play In 2022
3 years agoFree-agent first baseman Ryan Zimmerman made a radio appearance Wednesday morning in which he stated, "I still definitely am planning on playing, but we'll see what happens. No decisions either way yet." Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo has made it clear on multiple occasions that the decision to return is entirely up to Zimmerman, and a roster spot will be available if he chooses to continue his career. Zimmerman, 36, has played his entire 16-year career with the franchise. In 2021, he slashed .243/.286/.471 with 14 home runs in 273 plate appearances.
