J.J. Wetherholt Absent From Lineup All Week
St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt was pulled from last Friday's game on April 18 due to flu-like symptoms, but has yet to make it back to the lineup. The Cardinals' top prospect had been raking at Double-A Springfield, going 16-for-30 (.533) over the seven games prior to last Friday's contest, including four doubles, a home run, eight RBI, and eight runs scored over that stretch. It's surprising to see him remain out with no injury being reported, so it will be interesting to see if he finally returns to action this weekend. MLB's 21st-ranked prospect should push for a promotion to Triple-A this year, and a late-season call-up to the majors isn't out of the question, so dynasty and redraft managers should keep tabs on his progress as he has the potential to be an impact player upon his arrival.
