Mickey Moniak Should be Fine After Leaving With Finger Injury
Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak (finger) was removed from Monday night's Cactus League game out of an abundance of caution after hitting his right ring finger while diving back to first base, according to Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette. Manager Warren Schaeffer thinks Moniak "will be fine." The 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now, and he should be fine for Opening Day later this week. Moniak broke out in his first year in Denver in 2025, hitting .270/.306/.518 with an .824 OPS, 24 home runs, 68 RBI, 62 runs scored, and nine stolen bases in 461 plate appearances over 135 games played. He became more selective at the plate, which lowered his strikeout rate. The drawbacks are that his numbers weren't as good on the road, and he still has issues against left-handed pitchers. Fantasy managers should limit their exposure to Moniak only at home against right-handed arms, where he can do plenty of damage.
