Christian Villanueva Fine After Being Plunked On Wrist
San Diego Padres third baseman Christian Villanueva (wrist) was removed from Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers after being plunked in the wrist. X-rays came up negative and he expects to play Friday. Villanueva is second in the majors with four hit by pitches and is considering using a wrist protector. It makes sense. Villanueva has been the best Padres hitter this season, slashing .340/.450/.780 with six home runs and 13 RBI. His round-trippers are tied for fourth in the majors and are tops among all rookies. Villanueva has been a popular fantasy add this week. Consider the wrist issue day-to-day.
