Tommy Pham Taking A Seat On Wednesday
3 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham is getting the day off on Wednesday. Trent Grisham is batting leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins while Brian O'Grady is covering Pham's usual post in left field. Pham has settled in as the everyday leadoff hitter for the Padres, but he's been struggling a bit so far in August. Through eight games this month, he's slashing .143/.189/.257 with 12 strikeouts and only two walks. It's been an up-and-down season so far for Pham. He got off to an extremely slow start, but went on to post a 1.074 OPS in June. He may run a bit hot and cold throughout the year, but he's a key contributor to one of the MLB's top lineups and should be started in just about all fantasy leagues on a weekly basis until further notice.
