Kevin Kiermaier Returns To Lineup Against Brewers
2 years agoToronto Blue Jays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier (back) is back in center field and is hitting ninth in the batting order on Wednesday against right-hander Julio Teheran and the Milwaukee Brewers. Kiermaier is back in action for the Jays after missing the last two games with back soreness. The 33-year-old veteran outfielder is batting an impressive .319 (45-for-141) through 43 games in his first year in Toronto, adding nine doubles, three triples, four home runs, 15 RBI, five stolen bases and 23 runs scored. He's been even better in May, going 25-for-68 (.368) with six doubles, three homers and seven RBI, so fantasy managers will want him back in their lineups on Wednesday against Teheran. Kiermaier is a career .251 hitter, so don't expect a high average all year, but continue to ride him while he's hot.
