Starling Marte's Status Unknown For Friday
4 years agoMiami Marlins outfielder Starling Marte (finger) was slated to sit for Game 2 of the club’s wild-card series versus the Cubs on Thursday due to the fractured pinkie finger that he sustained after being hit by a pitch Wednesday. Magneuris Sierra had been announced as the starting center fielder against right-hander Yu Darvish before the game was postponed due to inclement weather. Whether Marte is available for Friday is unknown, but even if he does suit up, it’ll be at much less than 100 percent. Factoring in the matchup with Darvish -- a National League Cy Young candidate -- fantasy managers are best served looking elsewhere for production.
