3 years agoToronto Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal (side) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Espinal dealt with left side discomfort on Wednesday and was forced to leave the game early. It remains to be seen if he'll be able to return to the lineup on Friday, but fantasy managers should view him as day-to-day for now. The 27-year-old has been swinging it well this month, going 13-for-45 (.289) with no homers, seven RBI, seven runs and a steal in 17 games, so hopefully he's not out for long. With Espinal out, Cavan Biggio will start at the keystone and bat ninth on Thursday against Rays right-hander JT Chargois. Biggio only has 238 at-bats for Toronto in 2022 and is hitting .206 (49 hits) with six home runs, 24 RBI, 40 runs and two thefts.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 year agoThe Cincinnati Reds acquired infielder Santiago Espinal from the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday in exchange for right-hander Chris McElvain. The move comes on the same day that the Reds announced second baseman Matt McLain (shoulder) will open the season on the injured list and could need surgery. Noelvi Marte is also suspended for half the season due to performance-enhancing drugs, so Espinal will give the Reds some more infield insurance in 2024. Jonathan India now figures to start at the keystone with McLain on the sidelines, and the 29-year-old Espinal will back up India. Espinal hasn't been much of a fantasy asset in his four big-league seasons with the Blue Jays, slashing .273/.331/.367 with 11 homers, 99 RBI and 15 stolen bases in 346 games played.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 years agoAccording to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com, Toronto Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal (wrist) had an X-ray on his right wrist on Sunday. The 28-year-old exited Saturday's meeting with the Yankees after being hit by a pitch. Fortunately, the results didn't reveal a fracture, so he'll be day-to-day with a contusion. However, Espinal hasn't played well this season, meaning there aren't many fantasy managers anxiously awaiting his return.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller

2 years agoToronto Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal left Saturday's game after being hit by a pitch. The 28-year-old was plunked by Gerrit Cole on his wrist/hand in the second inning and exited the contest. Cavan Biggio stepped in as a pinch-runner in his place. Espinal will undergo additional testing to determine the severity of his injury. The team should provide an update on his status following the conclusion of Saturday's contest.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller

2 years agoThe Toronto Blue Jays and infielder Santiago Espinal agreed to a one-year, $2.1 million deal to avoid salary arbitration. The 28-year-old has established himself as a vital component of the Blue Jays organization as a utility infielder. He spent the bulk of 2022 at second base but also saw some reps at shortstop and third. His bat has become a weapon after slashing .267/.322/.370 with a .692 OPS that earned him an all-star spot. Although the Blue Jays acquired Whit Merrifield last season, Merrifield had no issue getting some outfield reps. If Espinal can match the numbers he posted this past season, he should be a solid fantasy option with position eligibility at second, shortstop, and third base in 2023. --Rephael Negnewitzky
