Taylor Ward Day-To-Day With Knee Soreness
2 hours agoLos Angeles Angels outfielder Taylor Ward (knee) is being considered day-to-day at camp while dealing with knee soreness, according to the Orange County Register's Jeff Fletcher. Ward hasn't played in a Cactus League game since last Friday, although it doesn't appear that he's dealing with a serious injury. Barring a setback with his knee, we'd expect the 31-year-old veteran to be back in a spring training game later this week. When healthy, Ward will be the starting left fielder for the Halos again in 2025 and could also hit in the leadoff spot, boosting his run-scoring opportunities. Fantasy managers won't think too highly of Ward just because of where he plays, but his barrel rate and average exit velocities in 2024 were pretty impressive. Ward finished as a top-40 fantasy outfielder last year without fellow outfielder Mike Trout in the lineup for much of the season.
