No Timetable For Seiya Suzuki
2 years agoChicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (oblique) has been diagnosed with a moderate left oblique strain, according to the team. There is currently no timetable for his return to game action this spring. Suzuki has already pulled out of the 2023 World Baseball classic as a result, and he might not be ready for Opening Day, either. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised at all if the 28-year-old opens the regular season on the injured list, which is obviously a pretty big hit to his fantasy value as a top-25 outfielder. With Suzuki sidelined, expect to see more of Trey Mancini and Patrick Wisdom in the outfield for the Cubbies. Names like Nelson Velazquez, Christopher Morel, Edwin Rios and Zach McKinstry could also see more repetitions in the outfield in spring training as a result.
