Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (neck) is absent from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Philadelphia Phillies. It sounds like Suzuki woke up with neck stiffness, so the team doesn't want to risk anything. This doesn't sound like a significant injury, so fantasy managers should consider Suzuki as day-to-day. In the meantime, Christopher Morel will cover […]
