Ernie Clement Out Again With Hip Soreness
Toronto Blue Jays infielder Ernie Clement (hip) remains out of action for Tuesday's contest against the visiting Houston Astros, per MLB.com. Luis Urias will make the start at the keystone for Toronto and will bat seventh against Astros right-hander Pete Lambert. A sore left hip kept Clement out of the team's starting lineup on Friday and Saturday before he returned in Monday's series opener against the Astros, but apparently, he's not completely past the injury. The good news is that he's expected to be available off the bench on Tuesday at the Rogers Centre, so Clement is likely to return to the diamond for Wednesday's contest. The 30-year-old super-utility infielder makes a lot of contact and is currently hitting a strong .293 (86-for-294) on the season with seven home runs, 28 RBI, 35 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 76 games across 306 plate appearances. Clement doesn't possess a ton of over-the-fence pop, but he will certainly be a boost to your fantasy team's batting average, and he's eligible at first base, second base, third base, and shortstop in Yahoo leagues.
