Junior Caminero Back in Wednesday's Lineup After Injury Scare
Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Junior Caminero (jaw) is back in action and will hit second for Wednesday's game against the hosting Cleveland Guardians and right-hander Gavin Williams, according to MLB.com. Caminero fouled a ball off the dirt that came back up to hit him in the jaw during Tuesday's game, and he was pulled early as a precaution. Thankfully, he only suffered a contusion on his jaw, and he's ready to go for the series finale on Wednesday at Progressive Field. The 22-year-old Dominican third baseman is a must-start in traditional fantasy leagues when he's active, which has been for every game so far in 2026. Caminero comes into Wednesday's tilt in Cleveland with a .257/.331/.496 slash line, .826 OPS, eight home runs, 15 RBI, and 17 runs scored in 113 at-bats. Even though he has hit just .167 in six career at-bats against Williams, he should remain in all starting fantasy lineups despite his injury scare on Tuesday. Caminero does have a solo homer against Williams previously.
