Starling Marte Day-To-Day With Back Tightness
6 years agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte was scratched from Thursday's Grapefruit League lineup as a precaution due to lower back tightness. Marte is listed as day-to-day. It doesn't seem like a serious injury, so Marte should be good to go for next Thursday's Opening Day on March 28. Marte hit .277/.327/.460 with a career-high 20 home runs, 72 RBI and 33 stolen bases in 145 games for the Bucs last year. His combination of speed and power makes him a top-15 fantasy outfielder.
