J.T. Realmuto Back In Thursday's Lineup
1 year agoPhiladelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (hand) is back behind the plate and is hitting sixth in the batting order on Thursday against the Miami Marlins and right-hander Johnny Cueto. Realmuto suffered a right-hand laceration in Monday's game and missed the action on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Fantasy managers will want to reinsert him into their lineups now that he's available for the series finale against Miami. The three-time All-Star quietly continues to produce offensively at the weak catching position in fantasy, and he's currently slashing .243/.308/.447 with 12 home runs, 22 doubles, five triples, 42 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 44 runs scored in 93 games. His speed on the base paths is what sets him apart from most high-end fantasy backstops.
