Champ or Chump: Jake McCarthy and Heliot Ramos Fantasy Baseball Outlooks

Mookie Betts fractured his left wrist on Sunday, leaving fantasy managers scrambling for a replacement. If you're using Betts in the middle infield, the preferred replacement is David Hamilton.

The former 11th-round draft pick pitched to a 4.00 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and a 10.1% K-BB% over 24 starts last season at High-A, but has looked like a different pitcher this season.

Jordan Montgomery Bounces Back On Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery put together a strong outing during Sunday's start against the Chicago White Sox.
